They did a great job. In addition to the sump pump pipe we asked them to bury an additional pipe and they did this for an additional cost which we felt was very reasonable. They guys were great and it looks really good.
Description of Work: We wanted them to create a drywell for our sump pump outflow. We wanted to get rid of the unsightly black pipe coming out of our house.

The problem was immediately corrected, and they did everything very quickly and made the whole process very smooth. They were the nicest service providers I have ever had, very flexible in scheduling, very responsive. I could not have asked for better people, and would highly recommend them to anyone who needs basement help.
Description of Work: We had water coming into our basement and could not locate the source. Complete Basement Systems came in and identified the issue immediately. They quickly and perfectly opened up holes in the concrete floor, cut additional access holes in our drain tile, and installed new sump pumps.

Salesman was 30 minutes late for his appointment. Tried to sell a complete drain tile system when all that was needed was to repair the crack in the basement foundation. Said they didn't do many crack repairs and would warrant their work unless a complete drain tile system was installed. The basement already had a drain tile system and the only time water got into the basement was from the crack. Sump pump has not run and when inspected was found to be dry. Service was schedule to repair the crack. Service team was over 2 hours late to the appointment and called 12 minutes prior to the original appointment time to advise that they were going to be late. Upon arrival, the service team quickly got to work and commented that this was one of the most common repairs they do? (Not what the salesman told us?) The service team cleaned out the crack and exposed the drain tile system and tested the drain tile by pouring a 5 gallon bucket of water which quickly flowed away and into the sump pump...no issues and the current drain tile system was functioning quite well, no need to completely replace it. Service team apologized for being late and did an outstanding job. Other than the self serving salesman and the service team being over 2 hours late, the quality of the work was excellent. Sales should understand what the customer wants and truly needs vs trying to push a product or service that is unnecessary. Also, stand being your work! You have an excellent product and it works! Don't let poor communication ruin your business and your reputation.
Description of Work: Repair crack in basement foundation that was leaking and causing a small amount of water to come onto basement floor.

It went very well. Al, the technician, called when he was on his way (he called right at the start of the 2-hour window I had set aside) and arrived before he said he would be there. He was courteous and professional throughout, replaced the pump and was on his way within about 45 minutes. Before leaving, he offered some advice on what to do with the discharge line, a couple of bad windows in my basement and a concrete block wall that shows signs of distress.
Description of Work: I called Complete Basement Systems, who had installed my system in 1996, for regular maintenance. I had not set an appointment when they'd called to do so two years ago and suffered some water in my basement the previous year when the sump pump did not activate. The call resulted in immediate replacement of my pump, which was not working.

The team was professional, answered all of my questions and concerns and did a fabulous job. They all worked very hard and my basement was finished in 2 days. I hope to never have this issue in my home again, but I am very pleased with the job Complete Basements did and would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing basement work.
Description of Work: Complete Basements retiled my basement after excessive water damage due to a poorly tiled basement by the builder.

I have been a customer for many years. The customer service is the best! Nate has helped me with many issues at my home. He knows the products and can solve any problem I have. Everyone that has been in my home has been polite, professional and neat. They keep everything cleaned up. They are very hard workers! I would recommend this company to everyone!
Description of Work: My home is drain tiled inside. That work was done years ago. Nate has worked on two window wells and is currently putting in the drains in my window wells to prevent any water that could possible seep through the window caulking. He is very confident in their products and that confidence makes me know that I am in good hands. He is always smiling and happy! I consider Complete Basement a friend not a vendor. They truly care about me and my home.

Complete Basement Systems was knowledgeable and honest. I do believe I received the best sump pump system money can buy. The gentlemen who installed it were courteous, although loud at times (and even fighting among themselves for a brief moment). I had questions for the team when they arrived and they were able to answer them and provide timely advice that helped a lot with my decision process. If I had to add on to the basement waterproofing in the future, I will use them again.

We've had a 3+ inch and 2.5 inch rain and no water on the floor. After years of wet vacuming water out of the carpet in our fully finished basement (2 bedrooms, full bathroom and a large family room). We may have found our solution!
Description of Work: We were having water seeping in our basement for years if we got more than 3 inches of rain. A sales representative Dylan W came promptly to our house in Saint James MN to give us an estimate. He explained the system he thought we needed and had some good suggestions and helped us get the most service for the least amount of money. We had a water guard system installed by Luke and his crew member. Wow! They were so efficient and polite and kept us informed of the progress on the work.
