We used them but I'm not satisfied with them they did a very good job waterproofing the basement but they were suppose to clean up afterwards first of all told us when they were here that evening that they were going to charge us sixty five hundred and then the next day came and they said that they was going to charge us seventy five hundred and we said is there any discount and they said no and we saw the Angieslist afterwards we saw it and so of course we couldn't get it and ten he said oh well we gave you a discount but he didn't. that was one thing the second thing I wouldn't recommend them because although they did waterproof they said they were gonna do on the edge and they ended up right in the middle of the basement and then in addition to that they were suppose to, they wanted the cheque immediately and we did give it to them however, when we sign the contract we saw the owner and that was it and he kept telling me oh he was sick he was this he was gonna come back he was going to send somebody he didn't I mean it's not a big deal that they left some junk in the basement and they never really cleaned up.

From the first phone call, Bob was very responsive. He is knowledgable, and patiently answered all our questions. He had a large crew--about 9 men--come the day the work was done. They came as scheduled in the morning and did the whole job by mid afternoon. The crew was efficient, and respectful of our property. They left the area as clean as could be expected. I would highly recommend Bob and weather-title, and would use them again.
Description of Work: Last spring when the snow melted, we had water leaking into the basement through a crack in the foundation. Occasionally, water also would come in where the wall meets the floor. Bob came out to look at the basement and we hired weather-trite to fix the problems. They chiseled out the crack and applied a hydraulic cement patch, then covered it with PVC flashing which extended down to a trench. They dug the trench along the wall, put in a PVC pipe, and ran it to a new sump pump, along with a battery backup.
Work went extremely well. Fast Scheduling, and guys worked well. Removed an old sink from the basement as well, and scrubbed all walls / floors when done. Since the work has been completed, the basement has been bone dry. Very happy and impressed with work performed. Will have them quote on finishing the basement as well early next year.
Description of Work: Replaced aging sump pump to include new one with battery backup, replaced old interior drains with new interior drains around perimeter of 24' x 32' basement and from sump pump to middle of basement. Patched concrete as needed.
Bob was very professional and more responsive than any contractor that I've used in the past. His estimate was accurate - the work was done fast and efficiently. After several spring / summer storms - not a drop of water in my basement I would hire him again on the spot -

Bob, the owner, was the one that came to the house to do the estimate. After the first call, he came over within a couple days to investigate the situation. He was punctual, honest, and very detailed in his evaluation. Once we decided we wanted him to be our contractor, he came to our house Monday at 8-8:15, like he said. He came over, wrote up the final estimate, which was exactly the same as the initial estimate, and got to work. He said it would take 2 days; one to demo, and one to lay in the concrete. His team completed the work on time, on cost and did a great job. I highly recommend him!

We recently had a sump pump, French drains and window wells installed by Weather-Tite Waterproofing and had a great experience. Bob, the owner, answered all of our questions about the process and gave us a very fair price for the job. They were even able to complete the job that same week and in only 1.5 days. The customer service was great and they left the basement clean each of the days they were here. We would work with them again.

I had water seepage through the blocks of my basement which got worse in one area over the years. I had another contractor doing outside work for me and I let him look at my basement. The guy wanted to replace the blocks for $$$$$! Fortunately I came to my senses and found Weather-Tite Waterproofing on the list last week. Well, it was my lucky day. I messaged them and within minutes Bob called me. He just happened to be heading my way anyway. Within a half hour he arrived. He was very professional and efficient as he assessed my basement and outside foundation. It turned out that the blocks were fine. The original drainage system in the house needed to be unclogged. The water had nowhere to go. He took his time to go over his proposal to put in a new drainage system. He was very informative and instructed me on what I needed to do. Over the weekend I hustled to get stuff out of the basement so that his team of 8 men could begin work on Monday. Monday morning came and sure enough the men arrived promptly and got right to work. They very quickly got everything in their way moved. Paneling was removed and they covered everything up to protect it all from the dust. Then the excavation began. I left for work. By mid-morning Wednesday they were done cleaning up just as the snowfall outside started to get heavy. They did an excellent job! Now my basement is completely dry. I can't tell you how pleased I am with the whole experience. I highly recommend them.
Description of Work: Installed new french drain system, sump pump in basement
We had a major basement flood in May 2014 after several days of heavy rain. We obtained 3 quotes for the drain & sump system and Weather-Tite was the best by far. The price was in the middle of the range, but they include the backup battery in their price, so the value is better. Since our house is one side of a duplex and the basement floods on both sides, it didn't make sense to only install the system on our side. If we had only done our side, it would have been $7,500, but since we did both sides, it was $5,200 (per basement). Our neighbor agreed to do the installation, but was a little flakey about getting back to me and the owner, Bob, to schedule the work. Bob was patient and persistent in getting a response from them. Bob is friendly and knowledgeable - I called him a few times with some questions about the installation (permits, where to discharge the water, etc.) and he always got back to me with detailed explanations. Once the work was scheduled, everything was a breeze. The crew showed up right on time and the job was completed in 3 days. Bob was on-site to check in with the crew and to make sure we were satisfied with the work. When they finished, they cleaned up after themselves and left the basement cleaner than they found it. Our basement has been dry since the installation.

Robert Lindsay, owner assessed our water problem and provided an estimate. The outdoor drainage system was clogged. There was excess water on the rear lawn and water was entering our finished basement. We were concerned that our lawn would be compromised due to the installation of pipes. Mr. Lindsay assured us that our lawn and flower beds would not be damaged during the construction process. The job was completed in two days. The construction crew arrived on time on August 6th and 7th. The workers carefully dug up the externior of the home and installed new pipes. The workers created a great system for neatly removing and replacing the soil. The workers were organized, tidy and hard working. During construction, our lawn remained intact. The portion of the lawn which was impacted by construction was almost unnoticeable. I would recommend Weather-Tite Waterproofing Company. It is obvious that the employees were well trained to complete major construction with minimum impact. We are hopeful that our water problem was resolved. The company was obtained from Angie's List.

The crew arrived on site and went about their work, total professionals. They completed the work over 2 days. They had to move some material out of their way but they were very careful. When finished they cleaned very well. I tested the system before making final payment and I am very pleased.
Description of Work: The owner came to my home one evening, we spoke about the basement and then he made a thorough inspection. He formulated a plan that would rectify my problem, it was basically the same as several other waterproofing services that I had called. We spoke about price and Weathertite was the most reasonable. I thought that the lower cost might entail some cut corners so I was home and observed them closely.

Working with Bob Lindsay was a very good experience. He explains everything and is very knowledgeable and professional. We had a complicated situation b/c our house is contemporary with many angles and 9 ft ceilings in the basement. The only disruption was the noise from the jackhammers, which I knew, but that was done quickly and efficiently. After that I barely knew there was a crew of 8 in the house. The completed job was amazing. He tied in my downspouts to the new drainage system b/c of the water issues we have. The work was very neat and the men cleaned everything. Bob really knows his business and currently will be working on another project for us. We highly recommend him.

It went better than expected. Bob and his workers showed up on time. They did exactly as Bob explained in our pre-meetings. When there were any issues, Bob was prompt in raising the concern and discussing solutions. One example was the water inlet pipe was found to be dripping. Work stopped, we discussed, a plumber was called, United Water was contacted. The entire stoppage was taken care of in less than 3 hours. Some additional work was suggested, it was all explained and the extra cost was reasonable. Overall, great job!

Bob punctually arrived to offer an estimate. Although more than I expected, for th service that was being provided, I felt I was going to get what I paid for. Bob explained in detail what will be done in addition to the "what if's". After having lengthy disussions and making sure the scope of work was clear, I agreed to have Weather-tite do the work. I was told that the job would be done in two and half days and it was. They arrived on time and began immediatley...no messing around. The basement was prepped with drop clothes on all the furniture and other belongings. The bottom 3 feet of the sheet rock and paneling was removed in order to drill holes in the foundation to allow the water collecting around the foundation to enter the drain. Behind the wall was a significant amount of mold. At the end of day one the entire trench around the perimeter was dug. Under steps, a boiler, hot water heater and an interior wall. Day two...all of the mold was remediated by scrubbing all the walls and sprayed with anitmold solution. When I arrived home from work that day, all of the mold was gone and the job was 90% complete. The sheet rock installer arrived promptly at 7:30am Memeorial Day Weekend to replace the sheet rock that was removed and by 2pm the job was complete. they even installed chair rail around the perimeter so the seem between paneling and sheet rock was covered. The next day I was painting and getting my living space back to normal. I can't say enough about the confidence, professionalism and dedication of Bob and his employees. They're all business. I gave the price grade a B because you can get a french drain installed for less but as I said, you get what you pay for and I got the best. My mother always said..."don't ever be afraid to pay for the best because you'll never be dissapointed."
Description of Work: Installed a french drain with sump pump around the interior perimeter of my basement.
The job started promptly on time. Crew was here and amazingly enough within 4 days, completed the french drain portion of the job. The tiles took longer due to finding matching tiles. Week 1: Friday - Day 1: cut out all old dry wall, insulation and prepped the area Saturday - Day 2: started demolition (loud jack hammers - so stay away). Was hard seeing those nice tiles being ripped up from the inside of the basement. Dug the drain areas along all the walls, and dug the wells inside the basement. Monday - Day 3: installation of 4" pipes throughout, sump pump systems, mesh lining, fresh rocks (including exterior french drain) and concreted all along the inside perimeter wall. Tuesday - Day 4: Installed replacement dry wall with mold resistant dry wall. Had to re-install the dry wall with the right thickness and replaced insulation Week 2: Saturday/Monday - Tile installer came out and installed all the tiles in 2 days Week 3: Saturday - Baseboard was installed Bob was always accessible and this was a very big job. I have a fully furnished basement and so prep work for me was very significant. Bob's crew came and covered everything. However, with a job like this, no matter how much plastic is used to cover things up, when there is jack hammer and concrete being torn apart, you are going to get a lot of dust. I would advise, if possible to move things out of the basement if you have a furnished basement. Bob also went out of his way to do some extra things for me such as hook me up with a tile person who found a tile that was as close to the original as possible. My tiles were 13.25 inches. So we had to make due with 13 inch tiles, but the tile guys made it work and it looked very good when it was done. The grout had to be matched and so this caused an extra day of delay, but all in all, the work got done to satisfaction. Also as all jobs, it is very important as a general rule of thumb that the owner be present to ensure all key work is being done to spec and as agreed. I did catch the dry wall used was the wrong thickness and had to wait for the right thickness dry wall material was brought in and the initial installed dry wall was taken down. The same goes for the removal of an old pipe that was found that needed to be removed. The lead person was not aware of this and had to be addressed with Bob while the demolition was taking place. Overall I am satisfied with the job performed. It was not cheap but our basement should never flood due to heavy rains ever again! I'd like to post pictures of the job, but the site does not seem to have this feature.
Description of Work: Installed french drain throughout the basement with 2 wells and 2 x sump pumps with both battery backup. Installed exterior drain from back yard that connected to the rear well. As part of this job, about a foot of dry wall was cut out and replaced along with baseboard and tile.
He explained everything clearly. We found him on Angie's List. We had two people who gave us bids, and his bid was very good. He said he would come in day, and they put plastic all over the flooring and carpeting, so everything was clean. They put up plastic on everything so dust wouldn't get into the other rooms. They came in the morning with about 7 people, and they finished the job in one day. They did everything they said, they did it on time, and we were very satisfied with them. We didn't think they would do it, but by about 2pm they were done. It was a good experience from A-Z.
Description of Work: I used Weather-Tite Waterproofing Inc. They dug drenches, and put pipes out, so the water would drain out, and they put in a sump pump. They poured cement, and digging out trenches all around the wall, and putting outlets so water would drain in the back.

Hasn't rained yet, but don't anticipate any problems and have piece of mind because the job also includes a lifetime warranty. Thanks Bob, Steve, Lindell and team

I contacted the owner, Bob who promptly came to evaluate the problem. Bob has extensive knowledge of the building trades in general, and home drainage, foundations and water problems in particular. Bob evaluated the area beside the house which turns into a roaring creek during very heavy rain and provided a solution. The hard working amiable men came to do the job the next day. A 24' long trench was dug down to the footings (4+ feet deep). The wall was then cleaned and treated with a black tar-like substance (more sophisticated than tar), covered in a plastic like board and covered again with an opaque membrane sheeting which covered the wall, and the trench. Then the perforated 4" piping was laid in the length of the trench then filled with gravel and covered again with that same membrane which allows water in, but keep most mud and dirt out. Each end of the pipe had clean-out access covers put on and then attached to an existing 4" drain pipe that goes to the end of my property. The excess dirt was used to landscape the area so that future roaring creeks would be channeled away from the house. Everyone including Bob were professional and worked very hard to solve our wall/drainage problem. In case you're reading this Bob, Thanks again!

It was excellent. The guy who came was very good at explaining what they were going to do. They'll break it down for you. When the guys come to do the work, they break their behinds and do a great job. This was all done in a day. I could like, fall down that they did this so quickly. Their price was exactly the same as everybody else and I really can't complain. When an electrician came to check the crawlspace, he said it's great job down there. When you have a sump pump and a system put in, you need a dedicated line into your crawlspace. They were supposed to be here at 9 and at 9:30 the guy called me and said they're stuck on a highway. They did so much work that we only had a little vacuuming to do when they were through. They sealed off the whole house. They're the best. They also have a lifetime warranty and if you sell your house, they'll transfer it for $75.

I can’t prove that what they did works now fine because it takes a major downpour or a tropical storm to see if it’s going to flood or not. So I can’t tell about the final result. The reason I chose them over another guy whom I had used earlier for eleven years is because they provided all the services that I needed. The French drain was going to go underneath a boiler and they were able to do that themselves. The other guy told me that I would have to call public service and the public service has to deal with the boiler. They had to put up a plastic sheeting because jack hammers producers tons of dust and they did that themselves. The other guy told me that I had to hire a recommended person for that job which is another pain in the neck. So I liked the idea that they did that themselves. They were prompt and polite. I could call them anytime. One little thing that my wife didn’t like was the way the drain pipe was laid. They said that they would come back and fix it. We have a lifetime warranty on it. They said that they would come back and take a look at it. So I believe they would come in and adjust it. I got a pretty good feeling about it. By hiring several different people, they might be able to do it cheaper but I liked the full service. It was a positive experience except for once the first major rain comes, we’ll know for sure. I think their price was reasonable especially when I compare it to the other guys. I was willing to pay for it because it was a full service. I was satisfied. I would recommend them and I would use them if I had another house. I will use their services again in the future.

We had several interviews and quotes. I would recommend this. I liked that this company has references and a no-pressure approach. They were up front and practical. They made sure all of the mess was cleaned up immaculately.
Description of Work: We had a trench cut around our basement perimeter. They cut holes to allow the water to drain into the trench to the internal drain system that connects to 2 sump pumps. They also put up a vapo-barrier. This solved our soaking wet walls.
