Nicolas Liguras was very thorough with explaining how Perma Seal works and the various options available to me.

Brett arrived on time and sat with me for awhile giving me a history of Permaseal and their success in helping homeowners. We then toured the areas of concern and discussed the history of the home itself. Brett asked multiple questions to get a full understanding of what I was seeking and came up with the perfect solution for my issue. I appreciate his frankness and his visual aids in finding a solution for my problem. I am not a first time user of Permaseal but can tell you with knowledgeable and dedicated ’reps’ like Brett and services/products like no other Permaseal is clearly this homeowners ‘go to’ company.
Keep up the great work!!

Had work done in 2018. The work was wonderful. I have not had any seepage problems ever since they had done the work. I have scheduled an appointment to have additional work done to my house, because I trust him to give me the best estimate in to him. Peace of mind with their work. Thank you once again, Perma Seal.

Everything was great!! Very Professional. Price was MUCH less than I expected it to be for the foundation repair job. Would very highly recommend.

I am delighted with the work and the results. I was sorry my house foundation needed the work, but the workers and the work they did is outstanding!

Blas from Perma-Seal repaired a crack for Vicki R. in Bartlett, IL. Vicki gave Blas and the crew a perfect rating.

Jamie from Perma-Seal performed a service call on a visible crack in the wall for Eric S. Eric was ecstatic about the work done and gave the crew the best overall ratings possible.

We appreciated the fact that Perma-Seal was committed to timely follow through on the basic elements of my job. The job included 7 metal anchors fastened to the inside basement wall and 7 anchored in the back yard so that they can be tightened to keep my wall in place. I was concerned about the appearance but I used beadboard with a 4 ledge and placed framed photos on the ledge that can be removed immediately to tighten the anchor nuts. The wall looks great! – Vern M.

I was very pleased with everything Perma-Seal had to offer. Everyone worked fast and professionally.

We called to get a concerning crack checked, and everything went very easily. The service man came at a convenient time, was thorough in his inspection, and we received an economical bid. Overall a great experience.

Technician was very courteous and professional. He explained what work would be done and summarized everything before leaving.

Dear Roy: I remember when you did all of your own work with just one helper. You have built a successful business with good employees and morals. I want to tell you how impressed I was with William who did my 10 point maintenance inspection on March 16th. My pump was vibrating and making water sounds. William took the pump out, replaced the valve and installed a J hook strap. The sump pump is almost silent. I hope you keep him on the inspection crew. He is very professional and knows the sump pumps.

Allen was very patiently able to explain our problem and the most knowledgeable about the sump, and most of all, he was very courteous. We’ll surely refer Perma-Seal to our friends.

They were very competitive in pricing, I got more for less than the other top basement waterproofer. We needed the interior drain system, and got our cracks filled in the walls and a bubbler discharge line, and still saved $$ over the other bids. We did get 3 other bids, and chose them as an established company, and when they said it would be done in one day we signed on the line. The date of the work was about 2 months out, which gave us plenty of time to clear out years of stuff stored downstairs, and we had to move the washer and dryer and slop sink or laundry tub, we did our own disconnect and re connect of the laundry tub, and saved more money ( they add charges for a plumber to come out) and we moved anything else we did not want to move away from the walls, and we covered everything with tarps. They arrived on time, actually early,and did not waste a minute getting to work. It will be loud and you will clean up dust, but considering the job done, it was not that bad. I did not get the battery back up pump, but may in the future, it is recommended, but my neighbors don’t have them, and we have a generator in case of power outages. Seepage control is not sewer back up control, so it that is your issue, you will need to have another type of plumbing work done. It has been a pleasure to not have to step over seepage trails, it has been a wet week or 2 here, and not a drop of water to be found! Most towns have a rebate for waterproofing or flood proofing, and I will be taking advantage of that too.

Excellent quality and service, you get what you pay for! I had Perma-Seal out in March 2013 to repair 5 cracks in my foundation and replace both sump pumps before the big flood of April 2013. The salesman was smart and courteous, he showed me exactly how they would make the repairs and exactly how much it would cost. I did get two other estimates on the repairs before I went with Perma-Seal, one estimate was higher and one estimate was lower. I called the Perma-Seal salesman back and he scheduled the repairs for me. The repair crew was on time and spent several hours making the repairs in my basement. They left my basement cleaner than it was! I made it through the big flood of April 2013 without a drop of water in my basement. Perma-Seal was absolutely worth the investment!

Permaseal didn’t take any shortcuts when it came to water proofing my basement. They installed a complete drain system, sump pump and sealed all the cracks that were causing water seepage. All I can say is it’s been almost 6 months and not a leak yet.

Perma-Seal installed an interior drain tile and sump pump with battery back up. They were very professional, quick and easy to work with. Everything has worked well for years now. I would definitely recommend them to others.

Kenneth from Perma-seal installed two sump pump batteries for Brian F. Brian gave Kenneth the highest ratings for his service.

We had 7 to 10 inches of water in our basement. Ken Porter arrived and he efficiently assessed the situation, explained the problem and quickly installed the needed pumps. He is an extremely capable technician and we could not be more satisfied with his service. We have always used permaseal and we always will. With employees like Ken, we never have to worry about our basement. I also want to commend both Marge from your service dept and the lady who first took my call on Easter Sunday. You have extremely capable people and we are so very pleased with your company. Thank you

Had an issue with the sumps in the main pit, there are two pits, each with a main pump and a back up. The main pit receives continuous water after storms and winter melts that even neighbors have commented how often the sump runs. Gina reviewed the situation and provided options of what could be done to highly reduce the risk of my basement flooding. She was patient, detailed, professional, knowledgeable, and overall wanted to provide the correct solution. I very much appreciated her work and friendliness, she provided peace of mind. I have been a Perma Seal customer for almost ten years and all of my interactions have been professional including the folks who schedule the calls to those who do the field work.

I battled leakage from a useless ash pit located next to my basement fireplace for many years. Because it only seemed to cause an issue after ongoing, ground saturating rains I put up with the inconvenience of sucking water out with a shop-vac and dumping it into either the existing sump pit or laundry room sink when it filled up after sucking the water every 10-15 minutes so it would not flood my family room. This happened a couple times a year, but last winter & spring were the final straws. After coming home after a weekend getaway to a completely flooded family room due to a heavy winter rain that seeped down my foundation due to frozen ground, I’d had enough and decided to do something about it as soon as the ground thawed. Unfortunately, a flooding, ongoing rain hit before I made any calls and I spent 48 hours, sucking water out of that ash pit EVERY 5 minutes around the clock…dumping 108, 6 gallon shop-vacs into the sump pit!!! I spoke with several companies but at this point I really wanted the Cadillac of companies and called PermaSeal because I’d heard & read nothing but rave reviews. When Ron Rodriguez came out to assess the issue, he showed me a detailed power point presentation that explained the process and answered all of my questions! He was so personable and professional that it really eased my concerns and I was convinced I had made the right decision. The work crew was also amazing! They were all so pleasant and so consciensus about maintaining the condition of my yard while doing the deep trenching required to repair the issue. They also completed the job in an unbelievable time span. The 8-10 foot deep trench across the front of my house was opened up the first day and when they cleaned things up to leave for the day, I panicked a bit due to a heavy rain forecast for that night! When I talked to the foreman, he said, you are good to go – no worries… Your drainage pipes are installed and connected to your new sump system that’s working just fine! It poured pitch forks & hammer handles that night and although I camped out in the basement to keep an eye on the ash pit, it stayed bone dry…and has been ever since!!! The work was completed by noon the day and my yard was immaculate! I could not recommend PermaSeal’s quality and the people who make up every aspect of their business more highly!

My sales representatives John Ferguson was awesome. Very polite, professional and educational on all things concrete! Would highly recommend to any and all customers with basement needs.

John Fergerson was here today. He explained everything very well and was very knowledgeable. We are so happy to have gone with your company. He listened to all of our concerns and suggested products that we should get. Thank you

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

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.

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.

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.
