Thank you George H for Polylevel and crack repairs. Happy to get this done !

Jessie was excellent; he gave me a thorough explanation of future and services that would be provided. He made me feel informed and comfortable with attacking this level of work on our property.

Jim G was out today. He performed an inspection in the basement. He made sure there wasn’t any structural issues with my wall.

Jesse checked all items purchased from Permaseal and everything inside and out to insure gull functionality. Jesse did a thorough inspection.

Jim G was out today and laser measured my garage and gave me the greatest news. My foundation wasn’t settling. He looked around and saw that my window wells were broken and there was some debris and vegetation growing in my window wells. I look forward to having them cleaned out and well covers replaced.

Jim G came out today and performed an inspection in my crawlspace. He found a leaking crack I didn’t know about. He also advised that my flexi supplies on my water heater were against code. Look forward to having the work done.

Doro Sanchez and his partner sealed the entire foundation from the front all the way to the back on one side of the house and did all of the sidewalk center lines as well. Looks fantastick very professional. I would recommend them always.

Jim G was out today for an inspection. He was very thorough and professional. He showed a presentation as well.

Jim G came out today. Very professional. Showed me things after inspection that I didn’t know existed.

I just want to say a Big Thank You to Aaron for accommodating me on time schedule. He arrived at 9:30. My schedule appointment was from 2-4. But taking care of my grandson that was not a good time for me. That’s was the little ones nap time. Aaron explained everything to me and checked around my basement to see if any other area had seepage. We had FEMA come in to inspect as well. Just have to wait and see the results. Thank you!!

Tony W arrived on time. Quickly assess the situation and was able to give me a quick estimate to seal our leak.

Nicolas was patient, honest, and thorough. I would recommend him to anyone.

I had Nick D come out and he provided outstanding service. Not only did he address my initial concerns, he took the time to explain exactly the root cause of why the leak was happening! It was great that he shared his knowledge!

After removing drywall and insulation, he used the garden hose to soak the dry ground and finally, success!! I now have a date scheduled for repair of the crack in the foundation. It was a pleasure working with Antonio. He was knowledgeable and patient working to find the problem. Thanks Antonio.

Tom was puntual and professional. He’s an upright guy!

Aaron was very complete in his explanations & expectations. He did not skip any steps even though we tried to rush him through some parts. He was respectful enough to remove his shoes when asked.

Nick L. Was great. Very knowledgeable, and he answered all of my questions. He gave great suggestions and recommendations for work that was needed. He was able to find where the water was coming in, and didn’t have to remove too much of my wall to do so. Very professional. Thank you Nick.

Sean was on time and informative .

Your service technician was very helpful… and knowledgeable… he answered all of my questions… a 10 all the way… give him a raise… pastor Maurice…

We have used them a few times for foundation crack repair. They were very quick and did the job well. When we used them a few years ago, they also had a warranty if any sealed cracks should leak again. They come out and repair again, at no cost.

Professionals that saved me from wasting a lot of money, and they did high quality, on time, professional work. I received other bids for over $3,000 to fix a leak that I had. Dan McGowan, the Perma-Seal,representative quickly explained that Perma-Seal’s proprietary process would get the job done with a warranty for around $200.Crew showed up on time. Done in 25 minutes. Work area left cleaner than before they started. Lifetime warranty on the seal. What could be better? You can trust Dan with his estimates and suggestions. You can trust that Perma-Seal,will deliver the goods.

Always had great service! – I had a great experience with Perma-Seal,both times that I used them. They repaired a leak in the basement of my previous home 17 years ago, and they did work in my current home in the fall of 2009, and I have never had water in my basement after their repairs. The estimators are always very thorough and make sure that I understand the process and cost involved, and the crew always delivers. Highly recommended!

Had my foundation repaired – I just had my foundation repaired by them. They worked very quickly for the middle of winter and I was very impressed by the way they worked and surprised me by the outcome.

I felt dumb because I didn’t know what I needed for my house. My front door had a gap at the bottom and its made my utility bills higher. I was compaining to a guy friend and he said call Perma-Seal. They were very helpful and explained every thing perfectly. Not only that but they were able to fix that and a problem with my foundation I didnt know I had.

Excellent service and professionalism from start to finish, not to mention the lifetime guarantee! Will continue to recommend this company to friends!

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 Perma-Seal 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 Perma-Seal 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.

Found a large crack in the foundation during a bathroom remodel. This crack was not actively leaking but it was large enough that it took more time and material to fix. The person that performed the work was courteous and cleaned up after himself.

They were extremely professional and did excellent work. The workers kept everything very clean considering they were digging up our basement floor which can cause quite a mess. They worked quickly and there were no issues throughout the entire process. I would certainly recommend them to a friend. They are probably not the cheapest service out there, but when you’re dealing with your foundation I would not want to be going with the cheapest, but the ones who do the job well.

Perma-Seal sealed 6 cracks in my foundation. It was great! They came in and were done in about 4 hours. They cleaned up after themselves too and since then not a drop of water coming in. I love it, should’ve done this a long time ago.

We had Perma-Seal install a drainage system that keeps the water out of the basement during the heavy rain. As the other reviews mention it did take a while to get an appointment but that I guess is reality of their availability after a big storm The sump pump system is interesting and well designed since it has a battery backup so if our power goes out the pump will still function. System was put in about year and half ago and we have had no water issues since. I would recommend.

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 [money] 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!

Perma-Seal 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.

Very courteous and knowledgeable staff. Very helpful when my old sump pump gave up the ghost during a heavy rain.

This company has worked for me numerous times. I had a water leak in the basement that we could not locate. The first time they came out they found where it was coming from. At that time I had a sump pump put in and also some patching on the outside walls. This year they came for my yearly check and I told them I wanted a battery back up for the pump. They were outstanding. They did not try to sell me the most expensive just the one that would serve my purpose. Since having this done I have not had a drop of water and we have had some bad rain storms. All their workers are very professional and courteous. They come in and when they leave you never even know they were there. Their cleanup is outstanding. I would highly recommend this company to others who are having water problems. The water was not coming from the drain it was hydro-static pressure which I never heard of before. They knew what it was and correct the problem.

I inadvertently crossed leads on my sump pump battery causing a recharging problem for the system. While out of town, my wife called Perma-Seal to service our unit which turned out to be out-of-warranty. They sent a serviceman out to essentially sell a new system since this one was out of warranty. He was honest, and professional enough that he saw the issue was mine, fixed the connection and charged us $0. He won my loyalty for life with his actions.

We used Perma-Seal Basement Systems. They did a drain pipe in the basement, and they put in a sump pump. They also had to do something to my sewer line, which was a big job, so they had to call a special plumber. The service worked out great. They were great, they were in and out quickly, and they cleaned up.

Being at a low spot in my neighborhood, the heavy rains we get periodically through the year, and the amount of water I was seeing getting pumped out during those rains, I wanted some assurances of having a good sump/backup system for my basement (even though I was happy with my self-installed system, I felt like it was time to invest in something more professional looking).After getting a few quotes, I settled on these guys, simply because of the professionalism they showed during their initial visit. The price was a little high for my taste, but then, all bids were coming in around at a similar price. The guy that did the install was professional, clean, and courteous.Now, after a year of it working, I’m happy, it’s been functioning well. I would recommend this company for sump-pump installs.

Perma-Seal trenched the perimeter of my basement, installed drainage and sump pump system, and lined walls with waterproof membrane. They were punctual and finished the project early. With the storms and rain we have had this fall their work was put to the test week after week. As I write this review I am in the basement as we wait for the storms and tornado warnings to end. Our basement is water tight and free of the musty odor.

Tom was very nice and did a great job!

Tom Bednar called me one week before, the day before and the morning of the appointment. He was scheduled at 8:00am and he was on time and I appreciated that. He showed me a 20 min video of how to raise the concrete and pour it as well. He also shared the discount price if I accepted today but I mentioned I had a few more estimates to get. Perma-Seal offered a good price for what I need done but I want to do my due diligence and at least 2 more estimates. Tom comes highly recommended. Thanks

Jim G. Was really great. Very helpful and knowledgeable. Answered my questions and explained all the processes.

Our visit with Perma-seal Representative, Cecil was very professional, informative, and helpful in understating how the process works. He is very knowledgeable about the product and addressed concerns of areas required that I did not initially notice as it was not initially visible. Provide quote immediately after measuring, assessing our needs and answered our questions. Great person to work with. Thank you!

Cecil came out and provided us with a plan and explained how the process worked. Excellent service provided by him and would recommend him and Permaseal to others.

Cecil Payne did an excellent job in reviewing and explaining our concrete leveling issues. Cecil satisfactorily answered all of our questions in a professional and courteous manner. As a result, we plan to award this work to Perma-Seal.

Excellent!

Adam, Tyler and Javier are great guys and do great work!

Concrete repair (drop of over 4”) between patio and house.

Repair was needed for over 30 years!

Finally made the call to Permaseal.

Timing was perfect because we will be able to pass guarantee along to next homeowner when we retire in 4 years!

(See Angi.com for pictures)

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)

This service is highly recommended. We got our concrete patio lifted and we had some questions about the results. They did not hesitate to send someone out to adjust it and make it completely perfect. The crew was very knowledgeable, easy to talk to when figuring out the best approach, and completed the job to our satisfaction like true professionals. In this day and age, customer service is the most valuable commodity, and these guys are cornering the market on it…thanks so much! (Repairs done 8-16-21)

Christian was very professional and explained everything clearly. He noticed my backup pump was not running properly and changed it on the spot. Thank you!

Was very pleased with Avery’s service and professionalism. Avery educated me and my husband on the equipment we have since we are taking over my mothers house. Awesome Customer Service.
