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.

The initial quote process was fast, friendly, and painless. As for the work itself, Perma-Seal arrived on time and quickly had the fix in place. I’ve waited over a year to write the review just to make sure, but so far it’s been dry as a bone down there. Upon initial inspection it looks like the previous owner attempted their own fix prior to this, but clearly that didn’t work out too well! My only gripe (minor) is that it took a month between the time I said ‘go’ and their availability to do the work. I guess that speaks to the companies popularity though, and being busy is good for business.

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

Hugo Morales who is a Perma-Seal crew chief was supersonically competent to accomplish this project. The two man team was exactly on time to start the job and they worked continuously and efficiently. Their work effort was efficient and successful.

Mr. M. Kulis is very professional. He gave me an honest review of my water problem in my basement. He gave me a number of options to correct my problem. I am very grateful and I feel like I’m a little more educated in how to proceed.

Mike was very knowledgeable and thorough when determining the cause of the water coming I to our basement. He took the time to explain anything I had questions on.

Our Perma-Seal Certified Consultant Michael Kulis came to access our home basemant’s leak issues today. Michael was highly profesional, extreme knowledgeable and courteous. Michael listen to all of our concerns and then provided the very best in class customer service to address our needs. We are repeat Perma-Seal customers. Several years ago I called on them to fix my parents basemant water leak issues and the company did an OUTSTANDING JOB at my parent’s house. When I discover leaks in my basemant I knew what company to reach out to. That was Perma-Seal. Mike Thank you very much for taking care of our family today. You represent your company very well. We already have recommended you to our friends. Loyal customer.Manny C

Perma Seal technician(Daniel Biker) called before hand and said he was on his way. Arrived on time, was polite, cordial and answered my questions.. Tested old pump, needed new, flushed and stated new pump was installed and working great. Replaced the new pump & battery backup in timely manner and same day, no waiting.. would recommend Perma Seal.. May be a little pricier than some other companies but they know what they are doing and do it well.. My old pump was from Perma Seal and lasted almost 20 years..

I got an estimate for a new sump pump system and drain tiles from Mike K. He did a great job explaining everything to me and answering the hundreds of questions I had. He is very knowledgeable about a number of different solutions to keeping our home dry.

Michael kulis gave me an estimate on what it would take to keep my basement dry. He explained everything very well. He is very knowledgeable and professionable.

I contacted Perma-Seal to quote a foundation repair. Michael Kulis was punctual and very knowledgeable of basement waterproofing and repair. Michael was honest and clearly explained our options in addressing our repairs.I would highly recommend Michael and Perma-Seal for foundation repair.

Pedro and his crew were amazing! They did a lot of backbreaking work in order for our basement to be fixed. The team was extremely polite and they kept me up-to-date with progress from start to finish which is very much appreciated because this is a very big job and it makes you understand the process more in details and they keep you involved. The crew was able to answer all my questions and concerns from start to finish. A huge thank you to the team for helping my flooding basement stay dry!

I want to let the company know that one of the reasons you have a 4.99 rate is your employees. Gilberto and Julio are two of the best you have. You are lucky to have people like them. Excellent work and character. Thanks

I was very happy that I called permaseal everyone has been super helpful and today I had my inspection for my basement to find out why it was leaking water. Zack Warren was my inspector. He greeted me with a smile and welcomed all my questions and eased my worries! He was very detail in explaining what was happening and what needed to be done to fix the problem. He didn’t try to up charge me for things I didn’t need and gave me options to help me afford fixing my basement. Thank you Zack and I hope the contractors are as delightful as you were!

Enrique and Leo did an excellent job on waterproofing my basement.Hard workers with quality work.They are the best,strongly recommend the right guys for the job.JimMunster Indiana

Zachary came by and spent the time to educate us about our basement flooding and clearly present the options and possibilities to control it. He was knowledgeable, respectful, professional, and answered all our questions.

Zach W. was friendly and very knowledgeable. He clearly explained all our options to solve our problems and got us on the schedule before he left. He made the process less complicated and painful! He is a great frontline contact for your company!

Thanking Gene for the recent maintenance with our Perma Seal-there has been a foul smell coming from the pump area and he had cleaned it thorouhly and was like a freshly chlorined basement we have now -and gave us information on how to keep it smelling good all the time.

Technician Eli did an excellent job in a very professional and competent manner. Eli’s fine work has made me a fan of Perma Seal.

Jason Vargo took the time to explain all my options for this repair. The written estimate was clear and concise. I appreciated his help in determining how to move forward.

From the 1st call to all the updates and estimate given by Brian Darling from Perma Seal everything was above and beyond excellent customer service. Fantastic work thank you

Mike and Erik were great.

Mike T was able to identify the source of the leak in the basement wall very quickly. He presented the possible solutions and advised as to the most efficient and economical fix. The service call was scheduled very easily and we expect the repair to go smoothly. He also noted issues with the window wells in the foundation and I was able to add those repairs to the service call.

Mike Tigge has been an awesome resource for us! We first met him 10 years ago when he inspected our leaky foundation and correctly diagnosed the repairs. Then he helped us after a major flooding problem with an ejector pit and overhead sewer piping to prevent more sewer backups during huge storms. He came out again recently to evaluate our basement for interior drain tile. Mike really knows his stuff, and we’re happy to know him through Permaseal.

We just moved into a house that needed a lot of work done. One of the major projects that we need to tackle is the basement and the foundation crack/sump pump/ and overall getting the basement up to par and in working order. Mike Tigges came out today to provide a quote/consultation and he did an awesome job. We had another appointment scheduled for a competitor later this month and I ended up just cancelling it. He took care of everything! Looking forward to finally checking this project off our huge project list.

Don Baier helped to make the repairs in our basement easy and cost effective. I made some changes to our original estimate and Don was able to make all of this work for us. Thank you, Don!

Mariano M. arrived on time, listened carefully to my concerns, made the replacements quickly and completed all of the repairs within 3 hours. I was very impressed with his kind manner and helpfulness. The sumps are functioning well and the window well cover looks great. Thank you Mariano!

Our plan was to compare two companies and decide which would best meet our needs. After back to back appointments we immediately decided to go with Perma-Seal. Mr.John Fergusons presentation was absolutely awesome! He was extremely professional and knowledgeable, and he thoroughly answered all of our questions.In addition to Johns verbal presentation he also provided a very detailed video which was fantastic. Customers want to know what theyre paying for, and the video cleared showed how the work would be done in a step by step format. John please keep up the good work!!!

Duane came out to look into a wall crack below the garage. He worked diligently visiting several parts of the house. After further analysis it was concluded that there was no structural damage to the foundation. I very much appreciate the honesty and professionalism of Duane.

Austin, who came out and gave me the original evaluation and what needed to be done, and Josue Perfecto Saul, who repaired my structural foundation problem and crack in the basement wall – all were polite, professional, knowledgeable and very considerate of what needed to be done. The problem was taken care of in a timely fashion and they left the work area, inside and out, cleaned up with everything put back to its original place.

Sergio and his crew were great. Efficient, knowledgeable, polite, hard working. It was not easy going up and down the stairs carrying heavy concrete, stones, supplies. They were dedicated to doing a great job and they did. They were real pros and real gentlemen.

Rich Betts did a thorough inspection of my sump pump system and explained some of the features of the newer models. He also did a thorough inspection of the crawl space for cracks and, at my request, also looked for possible entry ways into the crawl space for mice of which I occasionally have had problems with. He discovered three cracks that he identified as needing attention and also a possible entry where mice might be getting in. Rich was extremely courteous, professional and knowledgeable. It was a pleasure dealing with Rich.

I just met with Duane Swiggum . He was very courteous and explained the entire process for my crawl space. I am signing for the work to be done as soon as possible. I was very pleased with his professionalism and knowledge.

Brian M came to my home for a problem with my crawl space. I had my crawl space perma sealed without having a drain tile installed 9 years ago. I had gotten a lot of big puddles of water from the heavy rain we recently had. Brian very patiently explained why this happened. The water had no where to go without having a drain tile. He took so much time with me and I felt like as if my own nephew was helping me. I told him I would call him to let him know what I decided. A few hours later I called him to say I was signing the contract. He was about 40 minutes away just leaving another customer. I asked him since they couldn’t do the job till June 23 what should I do in the meantime. After a full day of work at 7pm he offered to come back to my house and wipe up all the many puddles with old towels that he said to get together. I was amazed how he went above and beyond the excellent service i had already received. It is very rare these days!He is im sure one of your most valuable employees. I will definitely spread the word.

I love what perma seal did to my crawl space. I had just exposed concrete walls and gravel floors. My crawl space always smelled wet, dank and a little moldy, i had perma seal come out and encapsulate the whole thing. I can tell you that every single time I go into the crawl space a smile creeps across my face seeing the nice job they did, plus it is ten times easier to get around in there now that i am no longer crawling on rocks. We also had cracks in the foundation and they were handled easly by the perma seal team. I love the work perma seal did and I will always ring there bell. P.S i had my work done more than 10 years ago and it looks as nice as the day i got it done.

I have a dirt crawl space in southern Wisconsin. High water table. Had bad experience with other waterproofing company Perma-Seal came in and gave me detailed description on how to correctly do job. From beginning to end, Perma-Seal did EVERYTHING they said they would. Had engineer inspect their work. He was VERY impressed with Perma-Seal. I would recommend Perma-Seal to everybody. Their service people and all others that I had contact with were polite and courteous. Thanks for the great work you did Perma-Seal.

Jack Castella came and gave us the best inspection of the crawlspace and was so kind and respectfull. I highly recomend permaseal and of course the bomb diggitty Hyperjack !!

Victor is very knowledgeable and professional and did a thorough inspection of our property (including the entire crawl space) looking for potential foundation leaks during a recent service call. He clearly has a lot of experience in this field and was able to clearly explain all the drainage system options to my wife and me. I highly recommend him.

Duane and Roberto from Perma-Seal were given a perfect report card from our customer, Tom G. They completed a 1300 square foot crawl space encapsulation project.

I thought that my problem would take two days to complete. But no these guys rocked it out in one long day. These guys had to go through my house to get to the crawl space, which is in my bedroom closet. With tarps down covering every inch of carpet these guys hauled bucket after bucket out the front door. Then back in with the gravel. These buckets were very heavy. They were so conscious about my tv and another wooden chest. Not one scratch or ding. I could have not had a better crew than these guys. I really hope that they get full recognition for a super job.

This was a follow up device call to correct an earlier oversight. We also added replacement of the cover.Doug’s call to advise timing of his visit was as promised. He was not aware of the replacement cover need but went the extra mile to get it done. He also put everything back in place and insured there were no leaks. Outstanding detail to everything – we’ll be requesting him to return whenever we need service.

Thanking Gene for the recent maintenance with our Perma Seal-there has been a foul smell coming from the pump area and he had cleaned it thorouhly and was like a freshly chlorined basement we have now -and gave us information on how to keep it smelling good all the time.

Excellent service from Gene at Permaseal. That’s why I ask for him whenever I need service. A great company. Thankyou

Pedro and his crew were extremely professional, courteous, punctual and did a wonderful job from start to finish. Took care to protect inside area to prevent damage to floors and surrounding areas while removing and replacing dirt and other materials. Left the areas inside and outside patio free of debris. Definitely will recommend Permaseal and their employees to friends and neighbors.

Mike T. came by and was able to help us book an appointment to fix our wet basement. He was very thorough and had answers to all the questions my wife and I had. I haven’t had the service yet, but based on the company’s reputation and warranty, I feel like I am in good hands.

Gene Krukowski did a great job inspecting my basement and replacing my battery backup batteries. Thank you for sending him!

Outstanding tech installed the system explaining the process every step of the way. Very professional, skilled and well trained employee. Made sure I understood the operation of the system before he left the property.

1:05 am, April 30 – The new sump pump/pit/window drainage installed in July 2019 is perfect.Without it, we would have every window well full of water and at least a few inches of water in the basement.The pump cycles every couple of minutes, and I’d estimate the sump pit is receiving a couple of gallons of ground water every minute.Sure hope it stops raining soon.Thanks for the excellent system.

Ken Allen Laundie and Rego were very professional. They came to inspect the functionality of the check valve/ ejector pit system in our front yard. They were a little early to the job, but came with everything they needed to change my 9 year old Pump ( working fine but past its service life expectation), and inspect the lines feeding the pit. I am very satisfied with the service and recommendations they provided.

Your field rep Dave Conforti did a OUTSTANDING job of coming up with a fix for the problem we have here at the house. He made numerous calls to consult with your team and seemed to be genuinely concerned about helping fix the problem we are having. So far we are very happy with his assistance and concern as we still are waiting for the work to be done this upcoming spring. Hopefully the upcoming project goes as well as his service. Please pass a thank you along to him for his help so far

Brian Meltzer spent 2 hours looking for source of water leaking into basement. Had to break through dry wall at 8 or 9 locations to find the actual entry point. The problem was caused by faulty concrete sealing at opening for the telephone line. Marvelous persistence and great creativity in locating this hidden problem. Superb Permaseal employee!

Perfecto and his crew completed the work without any hassles and the work looked great when finished. Minimized the amount of dust and cleaned up when the project was done. 100% satisfied with the work and the leadership and work provided by Perfecto. Would certainly use again.

Sergio and his crew were great. Efficient, knowledgeable, polite, hard working. It was not easy going up and down the stairs carrying heavy concrete, stones, supplies. They were dedicated to doing a great job and they did. They were real pros and real gentlemen.

Very efficient, job done quickly

Jack Castella was very helpful. He clearly explained our options without trying to push us into something we didn’t need. He spent time consulting with others to find a great solution water accumulation on our driveway. If the work product is as good as Jack was we expect to be very satisfied.

Very good service. This is the third time I have used Permaseal for my Home. Every employee is knowledgeable and very careful to keep the basement clean Anyone who has dealt with the mess of plumbing and trenching of concrete will know how much dust is involved Permaseal makes sure there is know mess The work is guaranteed Today I had Jamie place an air tight sump pump cover. He was exceptional and knowledgeable. He also gave me insight on water maintenance issues for my house that is much appreciated Kenneth S

Perma-Seal completed a couple jobs for me. First, they installed exterior drain tiles to fix a seepage issue. Then, they solved a sewer backup problem by installing a flood control system in my front yard. From the salesman to the plumber to the crew, all are hard working and professional. They even saved me $$ by digging around the sidewalk rather than breaking the concrete which would have cost extra to replace. All in all, these guys are expensive but well worth it.

After having 2 major basement floods and a few minor ones over the years, I decided to throw in the towel and give Perma-Seal a call. A rep came out a few days later and assessed my situation and gave me an estimate on the spot. The price was lower than I thought it would be. The salesman was very professional and ‘no pressure’. He did inform us, though, that they were so busy they wouldn’t be able to install the system until the first week of October and this was the last week of June, 2009! I kept my fingers crossed during the weeks prior to the install that we wouldn’t have anymore flooding rains. The crew came on the first of October and was finished the next afternoon. I’m writing this on July 24, 2010, after over 7 inches of rain fell on Chicago in less than 12 hours. I’m very pleased to say that my basement remained bone dry. It’s so dry that my dehumidifier didn’t even turn on. THANK YOU, PERMA-SEAL! I waited to write this review because I wanted to wait and see if the system could handle an Armageddon-ish rainstorm and it passed with flying colors! My poor neighbors are all bailing out their basements and I feel sorry for them. Needless to say I’m overjoyed with the Perma-Seal system in my basement. The only reason I didn’t give them 5 stars is because the crew left a bit of a mess for me to clean up, mainly concrete dust.

(Kenneth) Allen has been to our home twice. First when we had a battery sump and ice guard installed, and again today for the annual maintenance check. Allen is super knowledgable and took to time explain everything he was doing, and also answered all of our questions. He was polite and thorough during both visits. A+ customer service. Because of these experiences, we don’t hesitate to recommend Perma-Seal to our friends and neighbors.

Three years ago, I signed up for a 5-year package of annual maintenance visits by Permaseal to check the system they installed. I love that I did this. Each year I get a phone call to remind me it is time for the scheduled maintenance (I have no way to forget). A service person comes, goes through everything, checks (and if necessary, cleans) my sump pump pit and machine and all the lines. They also check the basement walls for cracks and go over all of it with me. I like that they are service oriented and not ‘sales driven.’

Very happy to have Ken Allen Laundie and Rigo come out today for maintenance on my sewer vault. Ken was very knowledgeable and helpful in my making decisions to replace my sump pump. I can tell he loves his job.

Scheduled routine maintenance call for liners and pumps in both crawlspaces and the replacement filter in dehumidifier. Miguel Guerrero came out and was excellent in taking care of everything and explaining about what he did and he was even able to fit through the small opening to our second crawl space! Excellent work and product and would recommend your company.

Kenneth Allan and Rigo serviced 3 of my sump systems. They were professional and efficient, and Allan explained service packages more clearly than I had understood them. My systems were installed at different times during the past few years, and it was good getting an update on what was installed and when, as well as any warranties that are still in effect. Thanks.

Gene Krukowski came to my home for Preventative Maintenance in June, 2019 and he was friendly, professional, timely and provided to me helpful tips. Because of this Gene deserves the highest rating provided. Thanks again Gene!

Romy Shaheen was our Preventative Maintenance Technician. He came to Mom’s house, assessed the issues and came up with solutions. Romy explained what needed to be done in clear language that Mom and I understood, and answered every one of our many questions. Romy used illustrations and even brought in a special pipe that was needed, so Mom could see what it looked like. He was thorough, patient and kind. Romy had solutions to raise the foundation in one room, fix the water problem outside the house, and repair the porch and patio. We felt so comforted that things will get back to normal, Mom hired PermaSeal before he left. Romy is an impressive, intelligent representative of your company, an we are thankful to have had him as our technician.

thumbs up on Allen and Rigo!

Gene showed up promptly for our annual inspection maintenance. He notice that the pumps were too close together and the PVC from the pump area was crooked. He straightened everything out, and the pump is quieter and working nicely. He was professional and courteous, and did an efficient job. Highly recommended.

Doug came on time and provided pump maint.He also processed a wall crack request and scheduled a repair time .He was knowledgeable, friendly, and courteous.Thanks
