All around excellent job by Jesus!

Thank you George H for helping me fix a crack in my foundation!

Jim G arrive to my house on time. He was very professional. Inspected my garage and sidewalk and found the garage to be structurally sound. Only the sidewalk and garage floor was settling. Appreciate the honesty.

Dick was very through. i thought the problem was a lot worse.

Anthony & James were very punctual, and did a great job answering all our questions

Jake was on time and offered insight and professional consultation on replacing our water heater and upgrading the insulation in our home.

Jacob was courteous and professional going over our options to best improve the health of our homes sump systems as well as bringing to our attention that our waste ejector pit has been unsealed and venting into our basement. We appreciate his expertise and console in these matters.

Anthony explained everything very well. Addressed all of the concerns I had

Antonio was pleasant and very knowledgeable. He graciously answered my questions and performed his duties very well. I plan on requesting him personally for our annual maintenance visits.

Thanks!

Christian was professional from start to finish.

George Heller was great to work with Thank you Perma-Seal !

Unfortunately we couldn’t find what might have been making the musty smell, but Antonio was pleasant and explained things well and made a few suggestions as to how we could get better performance from some of our sump pumps.

Jim G. came out and did a great job. Called for one crack that I saw after we had drywall opened from a flood and Jim found 5 additional cracks that were leaking. And also gave recommendations on sump upgrades and underground extensions to keep water away from house.

Antonio did an excellent job explaining all of our options. Once the pump was installed, he showed me how to run a test. He showed me an alternative way to plug it in also. While we did not opt to go with the Wi-Fi back up plan at this point, he offered to come back and hook it up if we changed our mind. Antonio was very professional and personable

George Heller has worked with me in the past on properties and I am very happy with him and Perma-Seal . 5 stars !

Christian was great — patient, thoughtful, informative. Appreciate him working through particulars of the project, with real and helpful solutions.

I was impressed because I called the company because of moisture in my home (e.g. floor) sometime during the fall/winter. I was instructed to call Permaseal by a friend, which I did. Well, I have no basement. Nevertheless Chris went the extra mile, by inspecting the perimeter of my home and asking if I had a crawl space. He was able to determine yes (that wasn’t easy), and I wasn’t able to find access to it. He was so patient and pleasant. All of what he did and said exemplified excellent customer service. Thank you Chris! When I find the access point, I will be calling back. 05/08/24

Geo did a great job diagnosing the issue with my flood control system! I really appreciate him walking me through this process to resolve the issue!

Thank you George for a great inspection ! Look forward to getting 3 cracks fixed in my basement. NO more water !

Sean was very smart. I give him and company 5 stars. I have used them in past and using them now for my garage. Thanks!

Very professional explained everything needed

Sean was informative and let me know process and answered all my questions.

Excellent workmanship, courteous and knowledgeable workmen. Pedro R., Jose’ and Joey arrived on time, worked efficiently and left the work-site as clean as when they began. I recommend Perma Seal to anyone who needs help with their home repair. Additionally, a “shout-out” to Bob S. (Sales Rep) for his representation and explanation of how Perma Seal can solve my foundation “issues” in a way that was less costly than the competition. They did what they said they would do! Nice to deal with a company that follows-thru with their promises.

Sean did a good job; He was awesome; Very knowledge.

Cecil came out to see us today and was an absolute gem! Our house is sloping/slanted, and we’ve had several people out to look at it. Generally, they’ve all said things like, “you’ve got an old house – they just do this,” or otherwise trying to tell us it’s acceptable or not an issue. Cecil, on the other hand, actually took out some tools and measured! He had a laser level; he called a colleague for a second opinion and explained the process to us if we decide to go forward. More than anything, I trust Cecil. It’s easy enough to find someone who has the ‘technical chops’, but to find someone you trust, that’s quite a bit rarer in my experience.

My husband and I entered into a contract to purchase a 1922 Chicago bungalow. We and our real estate agent were concerned because we all saw what we thought might be evidence of water seepage, and we did not know if it was present or past. Our home inspector found six foundation cracks in the basement but ultimately did not make much of it and suggested an additional gutter drain spout and grading dirt away from the foundation. We were not comfortable with our inspector’s recommendations and contacted Perma-Seal. The homeowners were very strict about accessing the house. Michael Kulis made sure to accommodate the homeowners’ requirements, arrived on time, and immediately got to work. He was very thorough, as well as being informative throughout. Ultimately Michael found eleven foundation cracks as well as evidence of past water seepage and present infiltration. He prepared three proposals to remedy the problems and, because we intended to live in the house for years to come, we chose the middle proposal to set our minds at ease for the future. We presented a request to the sellers for a credit at closing which would enable us to have Perma-Seal correct the foundation problems after closing, but the sellers refused and we were able to get out of the contract. Thank you, Michael Kulis, for your professionalism and thoroughness. We were able to avoid some real unwanted problems.

I would like to recognize the hard work and dedication of Lisa Kapoun and John Ferguson. Their willingness to put in the extra effort to assist with my foundation repair project was unmatched. Lisa had to complete a ton of paperwork to satisfy the lender needs for this real estate deal. John would return phone calls on Sundays, even respond on Father’s Day. John put everyone at ease with his knowledge and easy to understand explanation of the project. Lisa and John gave me as a seller great confidence in PermaSeal. In turn, they gave our buyer an equal amount of confidence in moving forward. I’m convinced the sale of the property would not have happened without Lisa and John at the helm. I am forever grateful to these two PermaSeal employees and will recommend their services to any and all in the future.

Prior to today’s appointment I received a mailing from Perma-seal that provided details of the various issues that a home can experience, some of which I learned listening to Roy Spencer on WGN radio shows. I was sent email reminders of my appt which even included a reminder to ask about current discounts!
Met with Jim Gannon who did a thorough inspection of my home’s foundation and brick issues as well as rerouting gutter drainage. Jim was respectful of my time as a caregiver and provided me with his findings and recommendations, including video examples of the work to make sure all of my questions were answered. I look forward to having the work completed knowing the improvements will only add to the value of my home for years to come. (and provide another 5 stars afterward)

Mike Kulis did a great job in evaluating the issues with the cracks in the foundation. Mike took all the time needed to answer any questions or concerns i had about the repairs. Mike offered his best advise on going forward with the repairs. He gave me a quote that day and we agreed on a price and a start date for the repairs. Mikes knowledge of the service offered by Perma-Seal made the decision easy. Highly recommended

Nick L. was personable and professional. He answered all questions and got straight to work and found a solution to my problem. He took his time was empathetic of my water issues.

Keegan and crew did a very through job. They were very good at explaining everything.

Impressed with the willingness to take time to answer all my questions. Appreciate the full explanation of services and cost. Did not feel pressured. Immediate install date.

Tom came to check out our current sump pump situation and presented me with some hood options for upgrading our sump pump situation and giving us more peace of mind about staying flood free in our new home.

Nick provided comprehensive background about how a back up sump pump would meet our needs. Ramon installed the back up sump pump. He kept me informed about what he would do, how the system works, and advised me well on what next steps to take for setting up the Basement Defender. Overall, they both provided a great service.

The team of Perma-Seal employees who oversaw and completed this project were impressive from start to finish. After visiting my home they explained in great detail what had to be done to prevent water and sewer backups from heavy storms. The staff scheduled and kept all appointments needed to plan the actual work, started it on the promised date and finished the many steps involved in the scheduled three days. And the company provides post project services when needed. I look forward to flood free days.

Nick Dormitorio is excellent to work with. Nick took his time and addressed my needs for my sump pump, regarding my house, 3rd time using Permaseal. 5 stars!

On Aug 3,2022, had the sump pump installed along with all the plumbing. I talked to Lisa to confirm everything. The job turned out so great! The crew did a excellent job especially refinishing the concrete. Everyone I talked to was helpful and took time to answer all questions.

I contacted Perma-Seal to evaluate my existing sump pump. Robert came out and was professional, punctual and educating. I had several questions for Robert throughout the evaluation and he took the time to show me what was causing my sump pump issues and how Perma-Seal could fix my problem. He provided several options and allowed for me to choose which one was best. Unlike other contractors, Robert was not a pushy salesman. He is a genuine professional who puts more emphasis on solving his customer's problems than trying to make a quick sale. About a week after the evaluation, a technician came out to my home and replaced my existing sump pump with a new primary and battery backup pump. The technician also addressed my concerns of a loud noise coming from the discharge pipe rubbing against the underside of my floor joists. The technician installed bumpers and padding along the underside of my floor joists to reduce the vibration and noise. This was not within the scope of work; however, the technician wanted to make sure the job was done right and left me a satisfied customer. My pumps were installed in January 2012 and they have been working great. Based on my experience with Perma-Seal, I have referred them to two of my friends and had additional work performed this year by them at my home.
