Description of Work: Hired for a second estimate after the basement guys came to my residence and quickly told me i needed $12k building a complete internal French drain. Advanced basement solutions were open, honest and explained step by step how they evaluated my property. In the end the honest technician said my basement was in excellent shape and didn't require any type of repair. It's refreshing to know companies like this still exist. If or when I do need this type of service I would recommend these guys. Legit!

Waste of time.
Description of Work: Nothing. I specifically called to get a quote on an exterior french drainage system. I waited 20 minutes past the scheduled appointment time, The kid who met with me had no idea why he was there. When I described what I wanted, he merely stated we don't do that type of work. it was a complete waste of my time and I don't appreciate that. Go with a company that knows what they're doing.

Response from Advanced Basement Solutions
We apologize for the miscommunication and the misunderstanding. The inspector personally has 17 years of waterproofing experience. Additionally, our records indicate that he arrived on time for the scheduled appointment time. We offer free evaluations to homeowners in order to determine the most effective solution with a thorough inspection. Unfortunately, our inspector was not permitted into the basement to provide an inspection and his recommendations. When confirming the appointment via phone, we did discuss the exterior concerns and we mentioned that we offered exterior surface drainage along the foundation and in yards to direct water away from foundations. We also offered to have an inspector call to discuss specific questions prior to the appointment, but at the conclusion of the conversation we both decided that having an inspector look personally would be best. We pride ourselves in being an honest local company with great customer service and again, provide our sincerest apologies for the misunderstanding.

The gentleman was very nice and we told him we didn't want to spend that much money. We asked if he could do it for a certain amount of money and he said he'd get back to us but never did. Giving us a quote he was pleasant and prompt. He gave us the wrong quote, but did it in a pleasant way.

I interviewed four different waterproofing companies. Advanced Basement Solutions stood out from the rest because the gentleman who came out to give the estimate did a more thorough exam than the rest. He played detective a bit by trying to understand why the water was intruding into my basement. It turned out that an exterior downspout, which disappears under some pavement, had become detached beneath the rear steps that adjoin the house. They agreed to do this repair along with the french drain for an extra $200. When the time came for their visit, the weather did not permit exterior concrete to be poured, but they agreed to come back and complete the repair in the spring, once it had warmed up for only the promised $200 price. On the original date, they jackhammered out the minimal amount to allow the drainage pipes to be rejoined. I called in the spring and they were true to their word. they jackhammered out the rest of the sidewalk pad and refilled it. As far as I can tell, the french drain has worked completely since it was installed, as there was been no sign of water intruding through the walls into the basement. After the installation was complete, they took the time to show us their work, tell us how long the concrete would take to dry, and show us how to test the sump pump (without pouring water in!). I was initially a bit suspicious of the low price estimate, but their sharp eye in diagnosing the contributing problem with the downspout won me over, and I did not regret the decision to hire them.
Description of Work: Advanced Basement Solutions installed a french drain in the uphill side of my basement addition, where the vast majority of the leaks were occurring. They also repaired an outside downspout that had become detached beneath the rear steps and was contributing to the flooding problem.

Bill came out, looked around the house - inside and out, measured the moisture levels on the basement floor, and then told me that I didn't have a foundation problem and he couldn't help me. He told me what he saw and suggested that I contact a plumber. He was very professional and helpful. I appreciate his honesty.

Every job went very well and my foundation work is guaranteed to prevent any more movement in the foundation. This warranty is transferrable to a new owner. The guys who did the work did an excellent job, were very professional, cleaned up perfectly and explained everything in detail. All costs were very reasonable and the company is very responsive to any questions. I would recommend this company to anyone having foundation and/or water problems.
Description of Work: Advanced Basement has completed several jobs for me over the period of four to five years. These jobs include: wall braces for a bowed basement concrete block wall, two internal french drains with sump pumps and carbon strips on a shifting basement wall.

I was selling my house and the home inspector had stated that the foundation wall was pushed in a 1/2 inch at the bottom. Although the inspector did not call for any needed repair, I called Advanced Basement Solutions for a second opinion to ensure that everything was okay. I asked the company to inspect my foundation for any need for repair or preventative measures. The Company was responsive, prompt, informative and recommended no action needed at this time (either for repair or for prevention). The gentleman that handled the inspection gave tips on what could be done in the event that there ever was a problem (including supporting straps that prevent the wall from buckling and achors that could pull the wall back). Both of those would cost approx $3600.00 which seemed like a reasonable price. I find it very rare that a company would operate with such integrity as to not try to take advantage of the situation. I would recommend them to everyone.

They have been very responsive. They came out and installed the system. They did it incorrectly the first time and they came back out right away to fix the problems. We're getting ready to sell the house and there were some questions about it that came up and since their guarantee covers any inspections they are working to make sure everything is covered. They have been very responsive.
Description of Work: They installed a wall brace system in our basement. We had a deflection in our wall.
I interview several companies. These guys came through with the lowest price and were able to do the job in 1 day. I had several factors that made it necessary for the entire job to be done in one day. Also, part of the work required going under walls and under stairwells. They arrived on time, got to work right away, did their best to minimize dust. Warned me when they would be loud (I was working from home). They did all the jackhammering at once. And they notified me before making decisions.
