Crawl Space Waterproofing
From start to finish, my experience with Perma-Seal was top-notch. First off, Matt was very professional and thorough in assessing the overall situation and was excellent at explaining why the things needing repair had gotten to be a problem, and how the recommended repairs would fix things and keep them from happening again. As it turned out, neither he or I had noticed the sump pump problem, and when I finally saw it some days later, Matt came out on a Sunday morning to figure it out and get that included in the other work Perma-Seal was going to be doing.
On the day the work was scheduled to be done, Marcos and his crew of 5 showed up right on time and got right to work. Everyone was professional, polite and happy to answer the questions I had – which truth be told were not many because the crew had given me detailed explanations of what they’d be doing up front. It was easy to tell by watching these guys that they were well trained and knew exactly what they were doing. They were also very hard working and got everything done in one day – which was surprising to me given all they had to do, but apparently not to them. Overall, I’d be happy to have a crew like this one to do any work I needed done.

Basement Waterproofing
John was terrific! From the very start when he came out to my home to talk about the basement waterproofing needed in my home to the numerous times I called him with follow up questions and concerns after signing the contract for Perma-Seal to do the job. John was always available and reassuring. He took the time with me and explained things very well for me to understand. He never was pushy with me. I never felt pressured with him unlike some salespeople I have encountered in the past with other companies. Thank you, John!
Basement waterproofing
I want to thank Crew Chief Guillermo for all of his hard work on waterproofing our basement. He and his crew worked very hard over the two days they were here. Guillermo kept me informed of the progress of the work being done. He was patient and gave me his time for me to ask questions and raise any concerns I had along the way. He and his crew were professional in the way they worked. He and his crew were respectful of my property and cleaned up well after finishing their work. My wife and I are now feeling relieved that we will finally have a dry basement! Thank you.

We would like to thank Manual and Jorge for the excellent service, and friendly manner in which they took care of our questions and their honesty. We feel that it is necessary to recognize good service and honesty in good employees.

Concrete Leveling
George Heller was great with estimate on our concrete – thank you for your great service !
Concrete Leveling
Met with Mike B. and Jack regarding concrete lifting and leveling at two separate residences. This was after receiving two competitive bids in the two days prior.
Hands down, the level of knowledge and detail that Mike B. brought to the table were unparalleled. I am extraordinarily detail oriented and as a result asked hundreds of questions and raised dozens of challenges. Mike rose to the occasion and patiently and thoroughly addressed every one of my concerns.
There were no high pressure sales tactics, and pleasantly, no focus drift to all the other services that Perma-Seal offers. The quotations / proposals provided same-day by Mike were far and away the most comprehensive I received, including site diagrams and itemized work to be performed. Despite heading into the Easter holiday weekend, Mike “burned the midnight oil” and revised the proposals to alleviate any concerns I had, and he and the Team at Perma-Seal were willing to work on pricing to meet comparable bids. I expected a large firm like Perma-Seal to be generally inflexible, but was very pleasantly surprised to be proven wrong in this regard.
Finalization of the contract(s) and scheduling work were also a breeze. I’ve already recommended Mike B. and the Perma-Seal team to a co-worker.

Preventive Maintenance Service
Shane was always honest with us, in the course of his investigation, step-by-step: It was a confusing situation: the blue transmitter box was giving a false reading: The “WIFI” indicator was green, even though we do not have a WIFI subscription – so it should have been red. The “Active” indicator was red, which was correct, since we do not have a subscription. The “Alert” indicator was red, which was incorrect, since the system was operational, so it should have been green.
(1) Shane swapped-out the blue transmitter box with a new one that was working. The original blue transmitter box was still under warranty (2024). “Alert” indicator is now green, which is correct. The “WIFI” and “Active” indicators are red, which is correct.
(2) In the course of his testing, Shane noticed that the Primary pump was erratic, sometimes working, sometimes not (Intermittent). It had been installed by Perma-Seal in July 2018, so it was nearly 7 years of age and had seen a lot of use in the past few seasons. So Shane recommended replacing it now, instead of waiting for something to happen and being suddenly helpless in an emergency flooding situation. After due consideration, my wife and I both agreed with Shane’s assessment, so we decided to have Shane install the new Zoeller Primary Pump. The Battery Backup Pump is already operational.

Attic Insulation
Enrique Morales and his crew did an excellent job at insulating the attic above the garage and the whole house! They had to remove the existing old insulation, seal everything up, and then install new insulation in the attic above the house as the garage and house are separate. He allowed and offered me to see after each step of the process as they went along. They were very respectful, pleasant to work with, and they cleaned up everything nicely once they were finished. I am looking forward to reaping the benefits of having this done to our home. Thank you Permaseal and your staff for yet another job well done!!
