Customer Reviews and Testimonials

Jesse was great and professional provided me with great information.

I worked with Josue Hernandez on a project to encapsulate our crawlspace. Upon arrival, he assessed what needed to be done, and was very thorough in explaining the issue so that I felt well informed on our options. There were some very difficult aspects to our project (shape and entries to our crawlspace) but he did a great job to accommodate. We are pleased with the final result.

Jake Showed up early and was able to explain and assuage our fears after discovering our underground discharge line had failed. Getting it replaced will give us peace of mind and security that our crawlspace stays dry. 5 Stars!

Christian was prompt. Noticed we needed to replace our batter backup pump and did it on the spot. He was very helpful.

Alejandro was kind and professional. While he was not able to provide a permanent fix today, he went above and beyond to provide a temporary solution to hold me over for a few days.

He gives good advise that makes sense, hopefully he’s right, Jessie is great, and patient

Jim G was very professional. He diagnosed an issue we were having right away and explained exactly how PermaSeal can fix it. Reasonable price and we signed up right away.

Alejandro Lopez did a thorough inspection and after testing equipment he discovered the power supply was faulty.

Feliciano and crew were very professional, polite, and efficient.
Called before arriving and arrived promptly. Explained everything. And took a lot of photos for us. Cleaned up well.

Dick was very professional

He was very thorough when looking at what I needed, and in explaining the why.

Nick L was great to work with. Nick conducted his inspection and walked me though all of it. I was then given all options available for the work to be done and explained the process in detail. There was no pressure to get a deal done but I was given all of the information needed to make my decision on the spot. Highly recommend!!

Great service, helpful examples and answered my huge list of questions. Really appreciated Henry taking the time to work through different issues and concerns.

I’d like to thank the Perma-Seal family for making my basement dry. Micheal Wiser inspected my basement and sump pump and was very professional. He explained what he was doing and why so I could understand 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.

Henry Heller came out to do an estimate for a crack in my foundation. He was great, he took a look around the whole basement to help me I’d any potential future issues. We addressed my concerns and he also gave me ideas for future prevention and what’s available for my situation.

Great service, knowledgeable, kind

Very professional explained everything needed

Nick L. Was very informative and detailed. He gave us estimates on services we may need as well as suggestions. He answered all our questions thoroughly. It was a pleasure working with him. I would definitely recommend their services.

Henry Heller gave a full explanation of the repair that was needed.

Nicholas L was very helpful and was very clear with the entire process and made sure to explain all of the steps. Also he tried his best to find all of the possible solutions and even provided various options.

We own a home built in 1928 and had noticed wall cracks in one corner area of the house which kept reappearing. Having experience in residential housing, I decided that we had settling issues in on corner of our house. I knew of Permaseal from listening to Lou Manfredini and thought I would give them a call to have a look at what was going on. The sales rep agreed with my diagnosis and we scheduled the work. The price quote was fixed and was right in alignment with what I anticipated. The workers showed up as planned and were very knowledgeable about foundations. In the process, we found that the foundation had been poured without footings! (I guess that’s how they did things in those days?) That was not a problem for the push-post pinning system that Permaseal uses. They proceeded to install the underpinnings, patch the concrete cuts, and clean up. Would I use them again? Absolutely! In particular, if we have other foundation issues, they will be my first call.

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.

Perma-Seal did a full perimeter basement drainage system for us along with installing a new sump pump with back-up. All was done in the 2 days allotted by people who knew what they were doing and were able to explain why they did the things they did. We have now gone through some really heavy rains and have been dryer than ever. Each day they were here at the time promised and cleaned up prior to leaving.

Allen did a very good job of checking the sump pumps and battery backup. Thank you!

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

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.

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
