SAMMONS WATERPROOFING

We had a wonderful experience with Sammons Waterproofing. We had moisture problem under our house, & called 5-6 companies to come out and give us recommendations for a resolution. Chip was wonderful to work with - he took pictures & throughly explained his recommendations and our options. We felt like he honestly wanted to help us & not just sell us his services. Ultimately we chose to encapsulate our crawl space & have had no water issues since. Also, the work was completed in the time frame promised! Can't recommend them enough!

It has been a couple months since Sammon's finished the job. I wanted to wait for a period of time before writing a review so that I could fully understand the results. I guess I should explain first that my crawl space is really not a crawl space in that it has a ceiling height of anywhere from 5 feet to 7 feet. Years ago I had cement poured in about 1/3 of the area to use for storage. Due to the moisture, that was a mistake and should have had Sammon's do the work then. My ignorance was too high to make that decision at the time. First let?s talk about the good. The transformation of my crawl space has been exceptional. The musty smell that used to work its way into the house is gone. The moister content in the crawl space is down to 55%. The crawl space also looks fantastic. I can now use that space for storage and a nice little shop without fear that the tools will be destroyed by rust. Because of the cement they had to jackhammer around the parameter to create space to lay the corrugated drainage pipe. This literally took them a few weeks. Way beyond what they expected I am sure but not a single complaint or attempt to charge me more. They also kept me updated on the progress through the week of the project. Ryan, the project manager, was hands on and visited regularly to keep up on the work to make sure it was done correctly. I could not say enough about Ryan. He was great to work with. Now for the bad and why I only gave them a less than perfect review. As I mentioned I did use some of the crawl space for storage. Because of the work with the jack hammer the dust created was immense. Everything was caked with dust. I have spent over 8 hours so far trying to clean off the dust from the items I had stored. It would have taken 10 minutes to throw tarps or plastic over everything that was there and 5 minutes to remove it when the job was complete. I doubt this would apply to most people but if it does you would be best to cover the items yourself. I would have but I figured, like painters, they would do that. When I noticed they did not I made another wrong assumption that they would clean it up. Overall I am happy but when I am spending my time cleaning off the dust I get frustrated that a little extra effort would have saved me so much personal time. If that was not the case they would have got a perfect review from me.

Buddy was great. He came out to my house a couple of times to give his opinion about why we were getting mold in the basement (before and after we had the closet wall ripped out). Once the area was open, he came by that day and identified the cause of the problem. He had a crew come to fix it that day and my basement has been dry since. I am very satisfied!
