We had a huge problem in the previous design of our that caused the inside of the house to flood during any heavy rain. The work is of exceptional quality, and everything was clearly communicated prior to us signing anything. I can't say enough good things about the entire experience - the quality of the work, the great communication, the reasonable pricing, and the easy, convenient scheduling. The team was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable, and they went above and beyond. We've already had a very heavy rain to test it out, and it is perfect! Highly recommend!

Eldar was easy to work with and he kept to his original estimate even though our job turned out to be a little more complicated than he anticipated.

In terms of his work- he actually ended up installing 2 french drains instead of one and I'm looking forward to the first fall rain to see how it does.

Unfortunately, my experience with this company was frustrating due to poor communication and lack…read moreof follow through from the technician, Arturo. When Arturo came out to inspect the roof, he provided a verbal quote, but no written estimate was ever sent. Since my husband and I were in the process of making decisions based on contractor bids, I later reached out and specifically asked if a written quote could be provided. After waiting without receiving anything, I followed up with Arturo by text and was told that he would send the quote later that day. Four days passed, and I still did not receive the written estimate or any update. I sent another follow-up message and received no response at all. The only positive part of my experience was communicating with their staff, Abigail. The person responding to my texts, who I believe was Abigail, was responsive and helpful whenever I reached out to the company's main number. Unfortunately, despite her responsiveness, I still had difficulty getting the information I needed from the technician assigned to my project. I understand that delays can happen, but timely communication and following through on commitments are important. Based on my experience, I was disappointed by the lack of responsiveness and would encourage the company to improve communication between their technicians and potential customers.

I've seen the full spectrum--the good, the bad, and everything in between--and there isn't a component of a home I haven't rebuilt or replaced multiple times across various projects. I don't give recommendations lightly. California Decking and Waterproofing was excellent to work with from start to finish. Their team was punctual, reliable, and professional, and the quality of their work speaks for itself. The deck they rebuilt is significantly better than the original construction, and the warranty provides real peace of mind. We interviewed four different companies before making a decision, and I'm confident we chose the right one. I would not hesitate to recommend California Decking and Waterproofing.

What stood out most was their professionalism and honesty--they never tried to upcharge or renegotiate the price at any point. I also had tenants on the property during the work and received zero complaints, which says a lot about how respectfully and professionally they operated. Technically, it hasn't rained yet, so I can't fully speak to the long-term performance--but from what I've seen so far, the work looks solid and well done. On top of that, they offer a strong warranty, which gives extra peace of mind. If you need waterproofing done, don't overthink it--just go with Victor.

We hired American Heritage Environmental for water intrusion repairs, window replacement, and…read moreexterior weatherproofing. We made it clear our priority was getting back into our bedrooms quickly due to mold remediation, but the project took about a month, leaving our family of five in the living room. At times, the work felt rushed more of a "get in and get out" approach than careful, detailed workmanship. The window installation had to be redone due to damaged frames, and we had to ask multiple times to get it sitting flush. Interior caulking around the windows had visible excess material and was not properly tooled, and still appears uneven after touch-ups. I didn't notice this until after the final walk through, but on one window, the interior corner seems to have a hole in it or uneven seal after the 2nd install. On the exterior, there are areas with bubbling and "alligatoring," along with sections that were not properly blended to match the surrounding texture. One area was initially painted over despite bubbling until we pointed it out. Paint was also left on nearby fixtures, including our exterior camera. We also experienced a pinhole leak in a copper line in the same work area shortly after completion. While it was eventually fixed, there was initial pushback. We were billed for hauling and cleanup, but still ended up handling some debris ourselves. A partial adjustment was made after raising the issue. To their credit, they did return to address some items. However, the process required ongoing oversight, and we had to repeatedly point out issues to get them corrected. Overall, the job was completed, but the workmanship and experience did not meet expectations for the price.

The guys who are American Heritage (Jaime and Antonio) are exceptional. My house flooded in early…read more2023 after a series of rainstorms hit Los Angeles. I first reached out to Jaime and Antonio after several failed attempts with other "specialists" to solve the flooding and remediate the damage. They immediately came to the house and began to assess the problems, beginning with a plan to isolate the source(s) of the flooding. This initial step involved tarping the house and waterproofing the exterior walls. As the rains continued, we discovered that the house continued to flood notwithstanding the initial preventative steps. This sounds bad (and it was), but the only reason we were able to identify the source of the flooding was because of the preventative work done by Jaime and Antonio and their on-site inspections of my home during and after each rainstorm. Throughout this time, Jaime and Antonio stayed in close communication with me via phone and text, and were immediately responsive each time an issue arose (which was often). The flooding issues ultimately proved exceptionally challenging, and would require coordination over many months among American Heritage, the Los Angeles Dep't of Water & Power, my electricians, and my general contractor. As part of the solution, American Heritage needed to trench two sides of my house, install a French drain on one side of the house, install a separate drain on another side of the house, build up and waterproof the existing foundation, and remediate the flooded rooms (which included mold remediation). Throughout this process, Jaime and Antonio clearly explained the scope of each problem and offered proposed solutions, and welcomed my on-site inspections and questions at every stage of the remediation/construction. After their work was completed, Antonio and Jaime continued to check-in prior to and after subsequent rainstorms to ensure they had solved the flooding problems. This included multiple visits (which they did not charge me for) to ensure everything stayed dry. The value I received from their service was worth every dollar. House flooding is one of the more stressful and disruptive events that can happen in life. I hope it never happens to you. If it does, call American Heritage. You'll be glad you did. You will want them on your team.

During a stressful and panicked remediation emergency, I used Yelp to request bids. Brian was quick to respond, exceptionally kind, and gracious with his time.

In a crisis, having an expert willing to guide you--even if they aren't the ones on-site--is invaluable.

A family member would say that we don't need a leak specialist just to save as much money as possible, but he would be wrong because the leak kept coming and getting worse. Cut from years later to nowadays after letting family know again and again and again that we need a professional, I find out from others on here how Rapid Rain Response and Max is the perfect person to contact. Max came through right away and in an extremely timely and professional matter. He charged us a fair price to pinpoint the actual problems of and where the leaks are with tools and all, just as others said he would. Recommendations were given with who he advises to contact and it's on YOU if you want to go with those professional suggestions if you want to. In my personal case, I live with older generation family members who tend to think they know everything, no matter what; to save money and be cheap without wanting to fully listen to Max, so we're going a different route for now....BUT... Max was the one who solved the leak problems and where the water was coming from and my older family members cannot deny that fact! Just telling it like it is and being as transparent as possible because Max & Rapid Rain Response does a PHENOMENAL job at solving your leak problem while being extremely worth it/reliable! I felt I had to accentuate even more to you readers my real, honest experience in order for others to give this kick ass company a chance at solving their leak problems, because Max definitely solved it flawlessly like he always does in the other positive reviews. Also, like in the negative reviews, we have a bunch of stubborn folks who just won't listen to his honest and broken down with every detailed observations towards solving their problems. Thank you Rapid Rain Response & thank you, Max!!
