Driveway drain

Based on word of mouth and reviews, Westside Drainage was our first choice when we needed to deal with erosion around our driveway drain. Carlo was able to help us in just a day or two. As is often the case, the job was a little more complex than we thought, but Carlo took it in stride and finished the job quickly. We recommend Westside Drainage.

Fast, prompt and under quoted price

During the heavy rains this winter my basement suite was flooding and Carlo was able to come quickly to assess the situation. He came up with an action plan to identify the problem and thoroughly explained it. He was really busy but was able to squeeze the job in sooner than he had scheduled. While fixing the issue Carlo was very honest and said that he wasn't able to do much with a collapsed tile that was located under my cement staircase unless I wanted to take the stairs out. Instead he came up with a solution to divert the water away from that particular area and saved me a lot of money. Carlo was super fast and tidy - leaving the work site spotless at the end of each day. Thank you Carlo for being so great at what you do!

Drain tile repair

Carlo was a huge help in repairing a severe leak in our crawl space.

He took the time to explain his process, diagnose the problem, provide a quote and delivered on time and on budget.

He communicated proactively and was easy to work with.

Thanks so much for your help, Carlo.

Drain Tile Rockstar.

We worked with a great team when we bought our house. The realtors, agents and home inspector are some of the most respected in the business... When I asked for a referral for a drain tile scope, the home inspector suggested Carlo without hesitation... Glad I made the call. Carlo is a straight shooter and industry veteran who knows his trade inside out. He worked with amazing care and attention to detail, while explaining the entire process along the way. Job was done within projected budget & timeframe that was quoted. Highly recommend.

Blockage in Draintiles

I don't normally write reviews but really wanted to in this case. I wouldn't hesitate to call Carlo again or recommend him to anyone in need of help with their drain tiles. Our home was quite a challenge and a frustrating job as the drains were clogged with years of sand/dirt and tree roots. Carlo worked hard to help us get the system working again. I really appreciated his honest advise, his timely manner and charging what he estimated.

Leaky basement walls

I had an issue with my basement walls to be saturated with water. It wasn't an emergency but it already started to create a mold. I called a few companies and Westside Drainage was among them. All the companies were busy saving peoples' flooded basements. I just had to wait few weeks to see anyone and so I did. I booked a few paid assessments. After the assessments, I chose Westside drainage. I picked them because Carlo, the owner, has an experience and he is the one doing the job himself as oppose to other companies which sent me people with none or not much experience. Carlo fixed collapsed parts of the drainage and so far my walls feel dry to touch without opening them to dry.
Thank you Carlo for your help :)

Extensive Drainage Repair

I 100% recommend Carlo to everyone! He prioritized the job and somehow managed to keep to the original estimate, despite a number of unexpected challenges. He put a lot of care and attention into the work. I also appreciate how he always arrived early and took the time to explain everything clearly as it came up. Carlo provided knowledgeable alternatives to unnecessary work/costs that most companies would default to whether it's site-appropriate or not. He is a smart and devoted person who really prioritized this job and provided me and all of the neighbors affected with much needed peace-of-mind. Thank you Carlo!!

Drain Tile Inspection to Correction

(Late review due to being out of town).

I know there were issues with my drain tiles (having purchased an old house). Expecting the worst, I booked Carlos for an camera inspection and quote to resolve issue.

Carlos showed up with camera, showed me what he was seeing and explained to me that I do not need to unnecessarily fix all the drain tiles. He walked me through exactly where the problem is and resolved the issue for me.

I also had multiple issues with timing that caused Carlos to show up a few times (sorry). However, Carlos showed up with no issues and provided the most professional/friendly service. I definitely recommend Westside Drainage for your drainage needs.

Drainage Inspection

Recently bought a very old home and our home inspector suggested we have a drainage professional come in to check the drainage system.

I did my research and went with Carlo based on the reviews posted. Extremely happy with the choice !

Carlo came on site and went through the entire system. Carlo is very knowledgable and answered all the questions we had.

I would highly recommend Carlo if you're considering examining your drainage system.
