I spent about three plus hours with Marvin/Program Manager as he filled me in on Waterproofing 101…read more It was very educational for me and taught me a lot of things I didn't know. Can I be a waterproof specialist? I doubt it but I am much more educated on the matter. Prices are very good and transparent at all levels. Proposals are easy to understand and no reading small print, because there are none. The owner Steve will match competitor pricing if lower than what Blue Umbrella offers. A crew of four came. Jose, foreman, did a great job! He was responsible and the crew were timely. Jose even helped me reinstall the dehumidifier to the new sump pump area. They took away all the garbage too! The crew had two large trucks and seemed to have everything down to a science. One truck replaces the other once all the dirt from the basement gets loaded. My job was finished in two days because I needed additional work but this was explained to me and I had agreed to the extra service and charge. Knowing in advance is a good thing! Steve, the owner, came out to meet the me on day one. It was nice of him to come out and meet his client. After having a conversation earlier in the week, I can say Steve is very feisty and passionate about his company. During the early stages, Marvin made sure to show me an additional footer ledge was needed and I wasn't charge for something made up. Everything overt! No surprises or hidden wallet breakers! At the end of the job, a customer appreciation care box came to my attention! This review will keep Blue Umbrella's five star record on track! Great to help local businesses! Everyone should have a Blue Umbrella to protect from nasty water leaks!

He brought out a small model to explain how a sump pump works, and how it relates to the home's original foundation drain, cement foundation slab, cinder blocks, etc. He was also patient with me as I asked MANY questions (especially straightening out the false information I received from the previous "hard sell" inspector from a different company). Now I want Luis to be here to provide better explanations for my plumbing, A/C, and other house repair issues! :) Thanks Blue Umbrella!

I needed push piers to stabilize my home's foundation, and after getting several quotes, I chose…read moreGroundworks. Their pricing was similar to the competitors, but what set them apart was that they offered unlimited pier depth per section. Other companies had limits--for example, up to 20 feet, then an additional charge per foot after that. I'm glad I went with Groundworks because several of my piers ended up going 90 feet deep across 16 sections. With another company, that could have cost me significantly more. I also had their gutter guard system installed (similar to a French drain, though they claim it's better), along with a vapor barrier and mold treatment. I will say, if you have a serious mold issue, I'd recommend hiring a dedicated mold remediation company instead. I did have an issue with the mold spray, but after calling a couple of times, I was able to speak with a manager who surprisingly took my concerns seriously and resolved the issue. The salesman who came to my house, Randy S., was excellent--very thorough and knowledgeable. He always answered my calls and would text be back in a reasonable timeframe. One thing I didn't like was the same-day discount tactic. They present you with a price, then offer 10% off (or whatever discount they choose) if you sign that day. It puts pressure on you to make a major decision on the spot, which is difficult when you're spending over $50,000. There is a three-day cancellation window, but some people may see the discount as more of a sales tactic than a real benefit. I also want to mention the foreman on the job, Jose G. He was great--he answered all of my questions and even let me watch and learn a little while they were working. Overall, I was very pleased with the experience. Their warranty is transferable, which is a nice bonus, and hopefully I won't have any more issues going forward.

I have such mixed feelings about All County. After years of a recurring damp spot in my basement, I…read morefinally determined that French drains were the most likely solution. After several estimates, I landed on All County. I recommend them, but with some major reservations, and here are the deets: Sales: very responsive (naturally! They want your business.), and thorough with answering questions and explaining the process. Price: competitive with all the other estimates I got. Project: this is where things start to get dicey. Guys showed up on time. No project leader, just the workers. Language barriers made communication tricky at times. This was problematic as the salesman had described a certain construction approach, but these guys were doing something else. I had to call the salesman a couple of times during construction for clarification or for him to speak with the workers. That should have been a red flag. Also, this work was done in winter, and although it seems like common sense in hindsight, no one told me to turn off the central forced air heat. A fine layer of dust coated everything in my home (and some of the flooring they dug up in the basement to install the French drain was asbestos tile...ugh). How could they not ensure the heat was off before starting such a messy project?! Afterwards Part 1: I began getting water in areas of my basement I'd never had water before (although the original damp area, which had prompted me to install French drains in the first place, remained dry). I had to call the salesman several times in the weeks and months that followed. To his credit, he was always very responsive, although he couldn't understand or explain what was going on. After several months of repeated calls and visits, they finally decided to dig up the flooring in the area where I was getting the most water. Again, workers showed up with no project leader and a major language barrier. What they uncovered was incredibly suspicious to me: there was a quarter-sized hole in the main sewer pipe (that pipe was jutting out of my basement floor in an area that had been dug up to install the drains and was located in the area where water would occasionally mysteriously appear). The workers showed it to me, and it was evident "someone" had accidentally punctured the pipe and tried to repair it by gluing a bent metal piece over the hole. The guys cemented it up with waterproof cement and repaired the area of the floor they'd dug up. The alternative would have been to replace the entire pipe for mega $$$$, which I refused to do since they assured me their fix should be adequate. They did not charge me for this work, and rightfully so. Afterwards Part 2: I was having a final inspection for a new furnace that had been installed four years ago (yes, my town was late to the party!). The furnace was fine, but the inspector found a huge crack in one of the vents coming out of the furnace. The ductwork was tucked away in a corner area behind the furnace that's tight and not easy to get to, an area where no one would ever go...unless you were installing French drains and needed to access the entire perimeter of my basement! The inspector said the crack meant that the furnace was just blowing carbon monoxide back into my home(!). I had to get that repaired at my expense. Since the furnace was only four years old and everything was on good order except the crack, it was obvious it had been damaged (as opposed to a defect due to age). Of course, there's no evidence either of these damages were caused by All County. However, both were issues that didn't arise until AFTER they installed the drains. And both were problems that were located in areas of my basement that only they had been in or had access to. At the end of the day, it would seem the water issue was addressed. However, the French drains cost me much more than just French drains when all was said and done. If you use All County, proceed with caution.

I reached out to Valerio from Jersey Pride after spending the whole day ripping out my basement…read morefloors due to water seepage problems. Despite having a French drain and sump pump, it was all improperly done many years ago. I received 4 quotes, including Jersey Pride. Valerio was the only one to do an in-depth assessment of my issue and explain to me exactly what was causing me these water problems. He was the only one to bring a water meter to find where the water issues were and what parts of the basement we could salvage because they tested dry. All other three quotes were from companies that just took a quick glance at the basement, recommended redoing the entire perimeter, and threw out some astronomical amounts in the tens of thousands (it's a small basement). The honest and more than fair pricing from Jersey Pride shocked me after having recieved the other big quotes but Valerio really earned my trust by the way he conducted himself and his work spoke for itself. They fit me in the same week they came out to give me a quote and did a beautiful, clean job with the French drains and sump pump. They helped me redirect where the sump pump drainage was going, replaced my sump pump and basin and I even used them build a concrete pathway to my studio so I wouldn't have to walk through mud and water to get there. Even with all the additional items, I still paid less than what I was quoted by others JUST for the French drains. This last rain storm completely flooded my yard but I was pleased to see the sump pump and drainage working smoothly and the basement completely dry. Trust me when I say, there are no better waterproofers and masons that give you masterful work for incredible prices. Go with Jersey Pride. I will be using them for a drywell and any other projects that may arise

I called several waterproofing companies for an estimate. Several never returned my phone call, one company that came, gave me a very high estimate. I then called NJ Pride Waterproofing and within a few hours one of the owners called to say he would be over that same day to give me an estimate. Valeriaro arrived that afternoon and the estimate was thousands less than the previous company. Valeriaro explained, in detail, what had to be done. The work was completed in three days and we are very happy with the results and the care that was put into the project.
