Soggy Bottom Waterproofing

After getting some estimates by concrete companies to redo some of the carport, Tony was contacted to do something about filling in the hole. He did so by bringing in some gravel and had his crew fill the hole just a bit above the concrete line incase there was washout from weather. If this was done the day he finished the basement work as part of the service, he would have got an A. NOTE: this review was updated for clarification and after the crew came into fix the work.

These guys are great! Prompt, professional, courteous, and very thoughtful-- I have a toddler and they even thought to ask about his nap schedule so that they could complete the loudest work beforehand. Amazing! They finished the work in the amount of time they said they would at the agreed upon cost. Very highly recommend them!

Very prompt and professional. I haven't had the work done because some other work needed to be done first.

Very pleased with the work completed by Tony and Chris. Both very professional, worked very hard and would take time to tell and show me what they were doing. The end price was the same as the estimate also. Can't say good enough about the company and I would highly recommend them to anyone.

We were looking for a cost to deal with moisture issues in the crawlspace of a home we were purchasing. Because time was of the essence (we were in the due diligence period) we needed someone fast. We were very pleased with the response time of Soggy Bottom Waterproofing. They inspected the home, told us the problems and gave us possible solutions, as well as costs. In the end we didn't buy the home, and therefore we didn't need Soggy Bottom Waterproofing to do the work. However we would not hesitate to use them in the future should the need arise.

He explained to us what the suspicious substances were on our brick walls in the basement. He reassured us that we do not have mold. He then recommended some preventive measures that we could take to prevent mold.

Tony came out and gave an inspection , was reasonably priced , patient , and answered all my questions. Crew was professional and cleaned up after the job. After inspection we found some areas needing more seal and Tony personally completed the follow-up. I recommend him highly. Fixed all moisture and humidity crawlspace problems we had. Even after several storms and downpours it remains bone dry. On the e-z breeze system time will tell but the air quality is much better with it. I also ended up putting in a dehumidifier in the space that drains to the sump so with both systems it stays well circulated with fresh air , dry , and low humidity.

This last service was only the latest. He's done work for us before (new sump pump, waterproofing in older home basement). All reps for the company have been on time, very polite, and very knowledgeable. Final price always matches estimate. Price is reasonable. No complaints at all.

Tony was easy to access and was patient with my questions. He and his crew responded to my home to install a french drain and sump pump inside my crawl space soon after my initial call to him. I was pleased with his professionalism and his guarantee on his work. I looked at the work done and it looks to be good quality work.

They began the work on 2/5/14 and finished on 2/7/14 for the exact amount of the estimate. All of the installers that came worked very hard and were very professional. They were very meticulous in cleaning up all areas in which they worked. They also explained exactly what they going to do and how they would be doing it. They were an excellent group and I wouldn't hesitate at all in using them again.

I appreciated the analysis made. He came on time; was very pleasant; and knowledgeable about the situation. I have not had the work done yet, but I believe the estimate made is reasonable.

Provided great service in a timely manner. Highly knowledgable.

Work has not been started as yet. This unexpected cost will have to wait awhile. Tony was prompt, polite, arrived when he said he was and the quote was detailed and left no question about what was to be done. He out performed others i called hands down and have no reason to believe when we have the work done it will be correct.

I was experiencing some moisture issues in my garage slab after the recent heavy rains. I contacted two highly rated waterproofing companies off angle's list to take a look at the problem and provide estimates. One (who will remain unnamed) wanted to take a very aggressive approach to fixing the issue (inside French drain with demolition to my finished basement) with a price tag of $5k - even doubted I had an exterior french drain although I had paperwork and piping that suggested so. Chris (with Soggy Bottom) came out and after looking over my issues and talking in depth with me felt like the exterior french drain was not draining properly - allowing the water to back up near the foundation. He suggested a much more reasonable approach to dig and find the end of the exterior drain to make sure it was being carried away from the house and if, not, pipe it to the end of my yard - estimate $810. Based on the two estimates and discussions, I decided to go with Soggy Bottom - Tony was very responsive regarding the quote and scheduling. After the rains subsided, his crew came out and found the original subcontractor when the house was built had dead ended the french drain outlet right next to the foundation (unbelievable!) and covered it with dirt. Once the drain was cleared, water that had backed up flowed freely for over an hour. They then ran a trench from the drain under my sidewalk out to the end of the yard. A drainage pipe was laid that connected the french drain outlet and a nearby downspout. During the course of the work, I decided also to have them put in a basin to catch another nearby downspout. The work was done in about 6 hours and the final cost was around $1000 since I had them add the extra drain box. All in all, they were very professional and were always answering my questions completely. They cleaned up thoroughly after the job and kept apologizing for not being able to make it cleaner - all of the rains had made the ground very wet but I was pleased with the cleanup. There have not been heavy rains since then installation, but it performed well after a light rain, so I am optimistic my issues have been solved. I was very impressed with Soggy Bottom and would highly recommend them for future work.

Mr. Ferguson was truly a lovable and genuine contractor to meet. He answered all my questions promptly without hesitation. He examined my basement completely. He evaluated the drainage conditions outside the dwelling. The overall assessment revealed my basement was in good condition, considering the age of my home. If for any reasons I encounter problems in the near future, he would be my #1 contractor to contact. THANKS ANGIE

The gentleman from S.B. had done some work for a close relative of ours some time ago, and they were extremely pleased. The tech arrived at our house within 24 hours of our call. He was fast, knowledgeable, and extremely courteous. He has more than earned our business and recommendation.

The work turned out well. They were very responsive and did what they said they would.

Tony Ferguson was prompt, courteous, and willing to give options to us. He came as soon as the material arrived and finished up in two days. He and his men were efficient and skilled. He was extremely willing to go over each step of the process as he worked and make any changes we wanted. His price was very reasonable considering the work he did. My basement was awful and flooded whenever it rained. After the rainstorm on Saturday, the ground wicked some water into basement, the sump pump kicked in automatically and the basement never flooded. Additionally the dehumidifier kicked in automatically also so the basement is dry now. I can't say enough good things about this company and recommend it without reservations to anyone who has basement issues. It's nice to have peace of mind about this previous problem. He gave us good advice about drainage on our property and we may employ him to assist us with this in the future.

We are finishing our basement, and when there was a large amount of rain recently, we noticed water coming in through a wall in the newly finished basement. After looking around, we decided to use Tony to do the waterproofing. He was quick to respond to all of my messages, and getting appointments set up for an estimate and completion of the actual work was easy. They completed the work in 2 days, exactly as planned (and for the exact amount of the estimate), and cleaned up the job site before leaving. The work looks great, and hopefully we won't have any more problems with water in the area. I will update this review if needed, but for now everything looks great.

Installed 3 catch basins; installed 20 foot French drain; installed drain in carport; connected 2 gutters to new drains emptying in the front yard; broke an asphalt driveway to install one of the drains; sowed grass seed; and, fogged entire crawl space for mold spores. | |Motivation for getting this work done is four to six deluges that occur each year that cause much pooling in the back yard and flooding of our carport. It has been a success since we haven't had a deluge since the work was completed. And with the few hard rains since completion there has been no pooling or flooding, or any visible signs of water runoff. | |Tony and Chris are very conscientious and professional, polite and friendly, and work well together. They answered my questions and weren't bothered when I observed them working. When an existing drain couldn't be used as planned they quickly made an adjustment. Their work trailer new at the time was well organized and no time was lost acquiring and searching for parts. The quality of their work was very good and when they left debris was thoroughly cleaned up and the work site was neat.

The gentleman was very thorough and very nice. He crawled all the way under the house and talked to me at length about what he could do.

checked the whole house inside and underneath. went well.

It went fine. They came in the morning and had to dig the channel in the crawl space and then install the sump pump. I have my crawl space encapsulated so they had to deal with the 20 mil vinyl and they had no problems and everything was re-installed without a problem. Very happy with their work.

Tony and crew were professional and courteous and on time. Work was done in a timely manner as discussed. Went beyond what was expected with drain for gutter downspout. Would recommend!

After accepting their quote, which I found very reasonable, Soggy Bottom Waterproofing arrived in about two weeks. They brought a trench digger and all the parts and supplies they needed to do the job. Not really sure how this project would look I just stayed out of the way. They dug the trench from the back to the front yard, installed 3 - 20" round catch basins at the lowest points in the back yard. The three catch basins were 15" deep and the drainage pipe was sloped to the front yard and down to the road. They then covered the pipe with dirt, threw grass seed down and placed straw on top of the seed. I am thrilled with the way it looks and it works great. It only took them a few hours, I figured it would have taken a couple of days, but they knew exactly what they were doing and finished up. I am so thankful I did not have someone else do this work because I didn't really like the idea, as others suggested, of a french drain (with gravel in the yard to mow around) or the idea of a truck load of dirt dumped in the back yard ( muddy and messy). Soggy Bottom Waterproofing is very professional and courteous.
