Basement Waterproofing

Colm and Dominic were quick to respond when I had water in my basement late last winter. They identified the problem as a rising groundwater issue and recommended an internal system. While doing the job, everyone was hardworking, polite, and more than willing to answer any questions. Colm and Dominic encouraged me to look in on the work as it progressed and to take plenty of photos to have when/if I sell my home. Since the job was done, Colm has called several times after heavy rains to check that all was well and that I was satisfied. He even asked (when he was in the area this summer) if he could come by to check the basement himself. It's a good feeling knowing I no longer need to worry when it rains and a pleasure to have dealt with Colm, someone who takes pride in and stands behind his work.

Exterior waterproofing and sump pump installation

Our basement was a mini pool after all the freeze/ thaw cycles this winter. Act Fast was able to come in and start work at the first realistic opportunity (ground needed to be thawed and a few days in a row without rain). After they had started work, but before completing, we got some unexpected rain, but they took precautions and no rain got in. It was all finished on time and our basement has thankfully been dry since!

basement waterproofing and sump pump

We had previously had two companies try to water roof the basement wall from the outside and while their systems worked most of the time we still
had a small amount of water coming through the wall after several days of heavy rain. Act Fast solved the problem by digging a trench inside the house
and putting in a sump pump.The work was done within a day and the house is now completely dry even after a heavy rain.

Internal Basement Waterproofing

Colm and his team were both professional and courteous in their work to waterproof my basement. We elected to do a full internal waterproofing. They started the job on time, completed on time, and kept in line with their quote. They also took care of small details and ensured that the job was finished correctly. I would recommend Colm and his team at Act Fast to anyone who needs the job done right.

Basement waterproofing

Water leaking into basement through cold room. Installed sump pump and interior weeping tiles. After several quotes I decided to go with act fast. Colm was very professional and great to deal with. He didn't try to up sell the job like some of the other companies and only did what was necessary to solve my problem which saved me a lot of time and money. He was great working with my schedule to get the job done as quick as possible and his work speaks for itself. Basement has been dry as a bone. I 100% recommend Colm and act fast waterproofing.

basement internal waterproofing

Act Fast came to inspect my leaky basement, advised of the issue, we discussed options, provided a detailed fair quote. The best solution to my problem was internal waterproofing of the entire unfinished basement with a sump pump. The did the job in three days and all has been good since. Professional, on time, communicative. Highly recommend.

Basement Hero!

Colm one of the principals was truly my savior. The basement flooded as the result of a freak ice storm two days before I was to leave town for work for 2 months! I was devastated and a friend who is a building inspector recommended Act Fast Waterproofing. Colm arrived at the house within hours and was presented with an emotional mess (that would have been me). He immediately struck me as having a very common-sense approach, very logical and did not try to up-sell me on anything. I was raised in the building trades and have seen the best and the worst and Act Fast is definitely up there with the best. Colm took over communicating with me by video and email even working cooperatively with my carpenter to facilitate a quick turn around in the basement. His price was fair, his work effective and clean, his manner respectful and helpful as well as being realistic and honest. He was my Basement Hero!

Basement Waterproofing

I had a leak in my basement that needed to be addressed.
I contacted Colm and he was out at my place within 2 days. Excellent and professional communication to even just set up the appointment.

When Colm came by he did a thorough inspection of everything, inside and outside. He hands down spent the most time with me and discussed all my options.

Work started at the end of the week and he was in and out in one day.

Throughout he was awesome with communication and courteous to me and my family.

Thanks, Colm.
