After the massive storms this summer, and removing gallons of water multiple times from my crawlspace, it was time to call in the pros to waterproof my basement. I received a referral for Stay Dry Waterproofing from my neighbours - and Domenic, his son Stefano and their work crews didn't disappoint.
Their quote was quite detailed and included diagrams so I could visualize the work that they were planning. Both Stefano and Domenic were polite and patient with me - explaining the work and answering my many questions. Despite being a super-busy time, my job was booked quickly.
Although there were some hiccups in my job - was initially planned for less-expensive, internal work, but due to extremely and unusually thick concrete floors needed to move to external work - the job was completed with a high-level of quality, with respect for my property and for my neighbours. While digging, they discovered and patched a massive hole (imagine big enough for a family of raccoons to traverse!) down in my foundation that was a major contributor to the problem on one side of the house, and I've seen the difference immediately in that corner of my crawlspace ... dry as a bone! And the rest of the crawlspace has remained dry as well. Their work has given me peace of mind - no more stressing when it rains, or vacuuming up buckets of water and a 25-year guarantee - but my shop vac is feeling a bit abandoned now! lol.
There was some additional work required at additional cost - which they discovered once the job started, but it totally made sense to me. However, Domenic was wonderful and spotted some other things I needed and provided at no charge, which speaks to how much he wants to help his clients.
I really want to support family-run/small local businesses and am very pleased with their work and with my interactions with the team. I would highly recommend Stay Dry Waterproofing for residential waterproofing.
