In 2022, John and his crew waterproofed our new deck, addressing the issues left by a previous contractor. Since the deck covers a living space, ensuring it was properly waterproofed was crucial to avoid any leaks. John and his team were excellent--easy to communicate with, prompt, and very pleasant. We navigated through two extremely rainy seasons without any problems. Fast forward to 2024, and despite an unforeseen issue where a nail had worked its way through the waterproofing, John promptly took care of the entire deck surface. The new coating has restored it to its original condition, which was a delightful surprise. We're extremely grateful for their outstanding work. Having a waterproof deck gives us peace of mind, and we no longer worry about the rain! read more

John responded quickly within 30mins. He came to me on the same day and fixed a leaking roof before the storm next day. It's definitely a life saver, going from 6 buckets under the roof to a sound sleep. John is also very open to explain the cost details and what needs to be done. He offered a fair price even for an emergency situation. His work is also professional. Would definitely recommend them! read more

I was having a lot of water leaking after a bad storm. John was able to come out quickly and found an old patch that wasn't sealed anymore. His team sealed it quickly. It was $850, which was on the expensive side but I was glad to have it over and dealt with quickly. read more

$150 for a quote. I was told they are "very busy". Kind of weird without being able to talk about the details of the work. Well who's not busy? read more

John and team are awesome! A month or so ago, I was dealing with a water leak coming in through one of our windows. John and team showed up the next day, suggested some good solutions, and fixed it on the spot. We haven't had any issues since. A couple days ago, we had another issue with another area of the house. John responded to my email right away and came out right away to fix the problem. He worked quickly and professional. He even ended up cutting the cost down from what he originally quoted, because the job ended up being a bit smaller than expected! I'll definitely be keeping John on my list for any future issues. read more

Keep this short and sweet...Trust in John and his team - they will take care of you!

John and his team did a great job on waterproofing our balcony which had been giving us headache for years. His team, including Samuel and Lupe, is hard working, responsible, and attentive to details. They did a good job on making sure the work will not damage the landscape plants below, and on cleaning up after every day's job is completed. We are very happy with every phase of the project, from removing the old tiles and concrete, replacing the damaged plywood, applying the waterproofing membrane to manufacturer's specs, conducting a 24-hour water test, and to installing the amazingly looking pavers. They also did a good job on fixing the downstair ceiling where leak was. I like the warranty they provide and their commitments to honor it. We look forward to a leak-free balcony for years to come, and I have confidence that John has delivered it. I highly recommend Bay Area Waterproofing! read more

John, can out for a leaking deck. He thought the fix to the problem was applying a little waterproof caulking in which he charge me $350. I waited a few days to test where there caulking was applied and the issue persisted. I reached out multiple times for him to come back. When he finally came back out to take a look at it, this time he said the issue was more extensive and that he would need to charge me a little over $2000 for some plywood and waterproofing membrane. I had other people come out since that were a lot more professional and identified the appropriate solution to the issues. They also said that was vastly overpriced for the 15min of caulking he did. I would not recommend this company. Go with someone more experienced who won't try to rip you off and will identify your real issue. If I could give 0 stars I would. read more

John and his associate came out a few weeks ago to assist with a water leak in our staircase. They were on time,efficient and respectful. They problem solved quickly and had the situation resolved in less time than we expected. Just fantastic! We would give them additional stars if possible. read more

John, the owner of Bay Area Waterproofing is the real deal. As a former contractor, I was pretty rusty on how technology has changed and how many new amazing products are on the market that can completely seal porches and decks as well as other products that will go on quickly and protect your roof for a decade without re-coating. Bay Area Waterproofing sealed three large commercial porches for me at an apartment building, completely waterproofing the plywood substructure with an anti-slip finish. In addition, they completely waterproofed an aging flat tar roof with the latest silicone coating and several small leaks are a thing of the past. Bay Area Waterproofing was on time, fair and professional and has even thrown in the occasional extra which is really appreciated. read more

John and his team did a thorough, professional job making my front porch water proof after I saw signs of water leaking underneath. I waited to review until the rains started, and I can say now that there is no water coming through anymore. They were careful in their application of the various layers, and fixed any small issues that I noticed. The steps look really good now, and others comment on them when they come to my house. The surface they applied makes my steps slip resistant now, too. I have 19 steps up to the porch, and they did the entire surface, for a reasonable price. Thank you John and team! read more

John and his team are amazing! I contacted a number of companies to fix a leak in our roof (water was pouring through two light fixtures in the ceiling during a storm) and John was the only one who said he could help - other companies said they had no availability or would only work on full roof replacements. John responded right away, came by to look at the leak the next day, and was able to seal it a couple of days later. He sealed the leak quickly and his price was much lower than I expected for any type of home repair. We just had our first major storm since John worked on our roof and the leak is completely fixed. read more

John assisted us with a warranty issue on a home we built in 2013. He provided several alternatives on the best application, gave us a reasonable quote to perform the work, and effected the work quickly and professionally. Very knowledgeable and responsive. Highly recommend. read more

We have a leak in our sliding door during last winter storm. Called Bay Area Waterproofing. John was able to come the same day to check on it and come back next day to seal around windows, patio. He and his team worked diligently to finish this job same day. We're thankful to have his service. Steve read more

We had a terrible experience using this company. Highly recommend avoiding. We needed to have the work redone a year later, as it was not performed correctly the first time and despite the warranty, sought help elsewhere to finally resolve the leak. read more

Our windows on one side of the house had been leaking whenever it rained hard and was windy. Water was getting into our walls and causing damage. We paid a different contractor thousands of dollars to tear up the wall around the leaky window and fix the root cause of the leak - it was a significant job which required redoing the stucco and painting around the window when it was all done. So we were frustrated when the rainy season arrived that the water sensor we bought on Amazon indicated there was high moisture in the walls. Thankfully in searching for someone specializing in fixing these types of water leaks from rain, I came across Bay Area Waterproofing. John came over to assess the situation and shared his hunch on where and how the water was getting in. He recommended painting that side of the house with a special waterproof paint which would create a seal so water couldn't get in. His solution was the best we'd heard (as another contractor came out and said the only way he could confidently fix the problem would be to redo the entire stucco on that side of the house which we can only imagine would be a huge cost). Since the paint job, we've had no leaks during windy rain conditions. John was good at following up to ensure everything was completed, so we appreciate his professionalism. read more
