The owner of this company, Tony, told us that our basement would be water tight. We never had any leaks prior to Tony coming in. We had him do an underpinning (dig out the basement) and that is when the problems started. Despite a sump pump being in place (again something we never had or needed before Tony's work), and, as Tony assured us, an interior weeping tile system, we had a lot of water coming into our basement through a foundation wall. A LOT!! We were informed by another company who had to come in and fix Tony's mistakes that he did not bother to install an interior weeping tile system AT ALL. It was clear that despite charging us for waterproofing and an interior weeping tile system, Tony did not install same, but instead kept the money we paid him. The company that had to be called in to fix Tony's mistakes also had to break up a brand new concrete floor that we paid well over $10,000 for. The entire fix ended up costing us $13,000+. All because this "expert" did not have the slightest clue as to what he was doing.
I strongly recommend you contact me if you want to learn more about this contractor. This is not the first time Tony has ripped someone off.
BEWARE!!!!!
