They honored their contract and were willing to come back and help us work through a problem that popped up. It was refreshing to have a company actually be responsible and take responsibility. They were kind, professional and actually took care of us, what else can I say?

Very pleased with the crew. They were professional, neat and took time to answer any questions I had while they were working. Eric Ellis was the crew foreman that did the work at my home.

We live in Potomac Md and utilized â  58 Foundations for the installation of a sump pump, french drain and various other water damage prevention measures. Sheldon was our technician and he was absolutely exemplary. Completely honest, extremely thoughtful, did exactly what he said he would do and did it very well . I can be a pretty tough customer and Sheldon was one of the best people I ever dealt with. We have had some very persistent issues with water around the house. He thoughtfully addressed each problem and to the extent there were any issues, he identified the issue and dealt with it thoroughly. I would highly recommend Sheldon and â  58 Foundations.

Sales rep did not provide all required details for project so on day of there were surprises. I was told the rep was no longer with the company.

Make sure the person giving the estimate explains exactly what it looks like. They did not bring their own water to mix the cement. We had to remove the water tank so that they could work and ended up hauling water from the neighbors house.

Concrete work was complete unleveled and will most likely lead to cracking. Was told to call if it should crack and they will repair. Basement room was not swept following job and plastic was left up and hanging.

B Dry couldn't do this job but recommended someone who could, estimated the price and put me in touch with the workman. Great service. Audrey

The representative who initially came to the house to explain BDry's procedure was very courteous and professional. I received a quote on the spot. I had two other companies come out (one company did not even bother to get back to me with an estimate). Each company had a different opinion of what needed to be done and BDry's procedure was the least invasive and made the most sense. The team who actually did the work was very courteous and stayed until the job was done - a 12 hour process. (That was one question I didn't think to ask - approximately how long would it take) They communicated with us throughout the day, for example they asked where we wanted the sump pump to drain, instead of just making the decision. Overall, I am very happy we chose BDry.!

They were able to advise that I did not have a basement water problem and instead diagnosed condensation for which they suggested a simple solution. They did not charge
