Egress Window Well Repair
George H helped me with a window well issue and crack repairs. thank you for your service!
Concrete Leveling
Jack Mann did a great job explaining everything that needed to be done and why. I initially was just looking to get my back stoop raised. I had already been told by another company that my front stoop was fine, although I had my doubts. Jack explained the PermaSeal process and why it is superior to another technique commonly referred to as “mudjacking”. I’m glad I went with PermaSeal and feel confident my money has been well spent and look forward to many more years of peace of mind regarding the structural integrity of my home.

Nicholas Liguras,
Is a fantastic representative for Permaseal. He is thorough and clear with his waterproofing presentation.
Moreover, Nicholas was not adding pressure, or the fear tactic to rush and get the services done that were suggested.

Today’s visit was incredibly professional and helpful. After several other contractors looking at the problem and not being able to properly diagnose the problem I feel confident that this should do it since what was happening was explained to me each step of the way. I’m obviously not happy we have these issues but appreciate the how today’s appointment went!

Foundation Repair
I have had a basement water problem for years. When I contacted Perma-Seal their Certified Foundation Consultant Mike Keating presented to me a plan to fix the problem once and for all. Mike was prompt, courteous and above all, knowledgeable. He listened to my problem, examined both the inside and outside foundation, and presented two options for my consideration. Their was no pressure to pursue any option. I felt that their Waterguard system was right for me. He described this system in detail and prepared a detailed quote that listed all components and prices. I agreed and a Perma-Seal team showed up on the predetermined date. The team was extremely competent. They did their work efficiently and finished in one day. I have been completely satisfied with their work and less than one week later the Chicago area had one of the heaviest rainfalls in years. I did not have a drop of water in my basement! I would recommend Perma-Seal to anyone looking to solve their basement water problems.
Sump Pump Work
The certified foundation consultant that came out was very professional and explained every detail of what he recommended and why that work was needed. The crew that came to do the work were also professional and very knowledgeable. After cleaning the original sump pump, they saw that there was no need to do the additional work originally quoted. Because they knew what they were doing, I ended up saving $1,000 because there was not need to break concrete and install a double basin. They arrived early, at 7:30 a.m. and were finished by 10:00 a.m. I was extremely pleased with their work from start to finish.
Foundation Repair
Perma-Seal Basement Systems sealed a large crack in the foundation where water was constantly seeping into a room in our basement. They were here for several hours because there was constant water seeping into the room while they were trying to seal the crack in the foundation. They worked diligently until the crack was completely sealed. I paid exactly what they estimated the work would cost.
Foundation Repair
When the representative arrived at my home, he was very friendly and quite professional. He quickly diagnosed the problem as being a crack in the foundation near the basement window. He assured us that there was a 95% chance this was really the only problem and that it would not be very expensive to repair. He quoted a price of around $400 and set up a time for the repair man to come out and repair the cracks. Everything happened as described and we were very happy to see there were no more basement leaks after a heavy rain. I would not hesitate to use this company again and I am very grateful to the representative for saving us money.
Basement Waterproofing
I contacted Perma-Seal in an effort to determine the source of water in my basement, glass block installation, and replacement of my sump pumps. Dan McGowan came out, on time, and went over the entire basement. He was able to show me the source of the water in the basement (not foundation related), and provide estimates for work on the glass blocks and the sump pumps. I have two sump pumps – one sump pit and a grey water pit – both with pumps. Dan was able to advise me that the odor in my basement was due to the lack of seals on these pits, and included the pit seals in the estimate. He also noticed that the sewer pipe had leaked at some point, but would benefit from re-packing. I decided to complete this project first. I called to schedule my installation and spoke with Rosie in the call center. She was awesome, friendly, and very helpful. Scheduling was a breeze!On the day of the installation, I was contacted by the crew and advised that they would be there in approximately 30 minutes, which was within their provided 2 hour time frame. The workers arrived, put booties on their feet to prevent water/mud from getting in the house and got to work. The guys were friendly enough, and demonstrated that the pumps were functioning correctly. Overall this was a great experience. I highly recommend Perma-Seal and their staff. I won’t hesitate to use them in the future for the glass block installation.
Basement Wall Cracks
They filled cracks in our basement walls. We are happy with the work performed. And would call them again, hopefully we won’t need to though.
Foundation Repair
They came and repaired 2 cracks in my basement foundation. So far, so good. I’ve not seen any water in my basement since the repair.
Basement Waterproofing and Crack Repair
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.
Basement Waterproofing
We had foundation leakage in our basement and Perma-Seal installed a french drain. 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.
Foundation Crack Repair
The leaks we had were resolved. They did a good job. They excavated & filled the crack in the foundation of our home.

Drainage System Installation
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.
Sump Pump
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.
Basement Waterproofing and Sewer Line Repair
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.
Crawl Space
They are very professional and on time. Everything was what they said it would be. They did their own financing which was helpful. They also had the best price out of the bids we got. They installed new drain tile & sump pump in our crawl space.
Basement Waterproofing
Install interior drain system underneath basement floor and all that goes with that process including wall crack repair, and installation of double pit sump pump and back up battery. Price included removal of old concrete double sink laundry tub and installation of new fiberglass tub. The team was very efficient and did a really good clean up job. A couple of scheduling problems popped up at the very beginning and end of installation day, but were handled by management IMMEDIATELY and PROFESSIONALLY. The drainage system was finished in one day. THANK YOU!!!!
Sump Pump
Service was punctual and a professional job was performed. We installed a larger sump pump and redid the PVC piping to accommodate quicker water discharges. Electrical upgrade work was performed as well.
Foundation Repair
I hired them to seal cracks in my foundation, install a sump pump, an injector pump, and installed drain tile. They completed the work within a couple of days. I chose them for the job because they offered the best rate for the all the services to be completed. Everything was fine.
Basement Window Wells
They replaced two basement window wells & capped them, fixed/sealed a leak in the basement wall, and replaced a sump pump.
Quote for concrete lifting
Mike Tigges was a pleasure to work with on a quote for raising several sections of the concrete sidewalk leading to our front porch. He arrived exactly on time, took the time to understand what I was trying to do, and he offered several additional helpful suggestions. I signed the contract on the spot which earned a 10% discount. I hope the actual work is as professional as the sales consultant!
Lifted two concrete driveway slabs
My driveway had been sinking very slowly since we moved in 15 yrs ago. I assumed paying a lot of money to have my driveway replaced was the only option, until a neighbor told me about Perma-seal. I was a little skeptical, but his driveway looked great. I got an estimate from Perma-seal and the work was done in Nov 2020. I was home when the work was done and watched the entire process. I was completely impressed with the professionalism, work ethic and friendliness of the Perma-seal team which was led by Xavier Esteban, and was especially impressed with the results. The driveway slabs were 2-3′ below the garage floor and they are now exactly level with the garage floor with a beautiful expansion joint seal. The Perma-seal team could not have done a better job. I asked a TON of questions to understand how it all worked and Xavier and his partner were interested in explaining how everything worked. They really seemed to like what they were doing. They said every job is different and is a challenge. A really excellent job by a great team. I highly recommend Perma-seal.

Driveway and screened porch repair
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
found where water leaked into basement
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!
