The job was delayed due to weather but we were kept informed. The owner was on site for the start and finish of the job. He was not professional as an owner of a company should be. They attempted to pour concrete over the awning supports instead of jacking the awning up as listed in the quote. After some heated discussions, they did as previously agreed to but borrowed a jack from our neighbor. We had to ask for the warranty several times before receiving it. The patio and walkway look great but the overall experience was unpleasant.

They were the first and only company to respond to my request. They replaced my concrete front steps and did a perfect job. The company was professional, arrived on time and finished the job. fee quoted was what was paid. I would refer this company.

FINALLY!! The Heavy rains have come and tested my recently installed French Drain system. I'm one VERY particular Cop and after countless estimates I chose these guys. The entire team was great. They paid attention to detail. Gene was superior and his Supv.(I think) was like a God. Their leadership yielded precise work as I demand. The system works as promised. There is one" small thing that I'm going to contact them about. I will update after their response. I have NO doubt I will remain satisfied with their work and still give 5 stars. Stand by for my followup. P/O Frank P.

They were the first to respond to my call. Took awhile to get here but kept me informed of estimated arrival time. No surprises in fees charged me what was quoted. Came and got rid of flood and replaced sump pump. For the most part satisfied.

Professional group! I had a bluestone patio extended and they matched it nearly exactly to the existing patio. Crew was friendly and respectful of all of our wishes. They went the extra mile to insure we were happy with their job. I would hire them again, in a heart beat.

Except for the rescheduled, everything else was done as expected. James was there to oversee the whole process and made sure that the site was clean when they left. I am quite satisfied with the service and with his written promise to come back for another small job for the pump system with no extra charge!!!. Quality is 4.5 stars because since the job is done, the pump system has not been tested yet. Overall, I would highly recommend Always Waterproofing to friends and families.

This was a job that involved a flooded basement and was further complicated by the fact that the basement hasd a great deal of boxes, etc. that had to be moved. Always Waterproofing did an excellent job of waterproofing my basement. The job was completed promptly and efficiently by a great group of guys. James, the owner, and his forman, Gene were very cooperative and completed all that we asked them to do. I would highly recommend Always Waterproofing.

James, Danny and crew from Always Waterproofing were absolutely fantastic! Our egress window looks amazing and their work was truly top notch. They worked extremely hard and their clean up and finishing touches were beyond what we would have expected. We highly recommend Always Waterproofing.

Great work. Showed up on time. Worked hard. Explained everything fully from beginning to end. Cleaned up after themselves very well. Overall I was impressed. Price was very reasonable and the work held up well through several hard rains we had since the job was finished. No leakage. The only complaint I can find is that the Lifetime Guarantee Certificate we were promised (which entitles us to free repairs if necessary and which will increase our home value) has still not been delivered a month after the job. We called them several times to ask for it but still don't have it.

James Remsburg of Always Waterproofing was extremely friendly and discussed my situation thoroughly. He did not act like a salesman but like someone who was truly interested in helping me, unlike other reps I met with. Once we made an agreement he did the work as soon as possible. His price was very reasonable and I would certainly recommend that you talk to him first before having any waterproofing work done. Previous to getting estimates for the work on my basement walls, work had already been done to clean and put protectant on them. Based on that, I knew what didn't need to be done. I did not have water in the basement, just effloresence on the walls that was already visible 18 years before when I bought the townhouse. It had continued to get worse since then but that was typical in the neighborhood. James is the only representative of the three that I got estimates from that did not propose putting in a French drain,work that was not needed. He did say that the only way to ensure complete remission of the problem was to dig a trench outside and waterproof the outside walls and that they could do so. His estimate for that work was thousands of dollars less than another estimate I got to do the same.

It was a pleasure working with James and his crew. James contacted me right away and provided me with a very reasonable quote within 30 minutes of me submitting my job on Service Magic. His crew showed up right on time, worked quickly and efficiently, and made sure the area was all hosed off and to my liking before they left. There is no doubt about it I will recommend Always Waterproofing to my friends and neighbors!

I inspector and project forman were the same person. This was key, because the guy doing the work actucally came out before hand and talke with me about what needed to be done. The crew he brough out with him were excellent, they work amazingly hard and completed the project in one day. I am very happy with the work and will use this company again for 2 other project I have planfor my home.
