Well I wasn’t sure I was going to proceed with anything at my initial meeting since my basement had only some seepage over the years. But upon meeting Jordan my decision was made after his visit. He showed me things I never would have noticed on my own that are problematic. I thought I could do a simple fix. He thoroughly explained how water seepage occurs and how things can worsen in the future. I did not feel pressured at all and I felt he answered all my questions and definitely educated me on how water finds its way in. He was educated and courteous and I felt very sincere. We talked about different ways to fix the problem and in the end..he got me the best possible solution with the best possible financing. He took time to make sure I was comfortable with my decision and I definitely am! I am confident he will insure the job is done to my satisfaction. Thanks Jordan!Posted on Dec CookTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very thorough estimate.

There are three main waterproofing approaches for N.E. Ohio homes, each with different coverage levels and warranty considerations. Interior drainage systems address water entering at the cove and through the floor, with warranties typically covering these specific entry points. Comprehensive interior systems combine drainage with wall protection like DuraShield™ for broader coverage including walls, cove, and floor. Exterior waterproofing seals the foundation from the outside, offering the most comprehensive protection for severe water pressure issues. The right approach depends on your water intrusion patterns, foundation type, and budget. Our free inspection determines the best solution for your situation and explains exactly what each warranty cover
