Customer Reviews and Testimonials

Niko was a phenomenal service technician that was well educated in all that he had done and pointed out of potential situations.

Jesus did a great job, explaining the work and went above and beyond what we had asked him to do. He did a great job.

Niko was great. Super professional and helpful. Nice guy too!

I appreciated the kindness of Dylan and how he explained things because I don’t know much about sump pumps.

Team of Joaquin and Angel were courteous and professional. Finished promptly and clean up was exceptional. Perma-seal fixed some foundation cracks for me a few years back, so I kind of expected this kind of service from them. Strongly recommend this company, they are first class.

Niko answered all my questions and explained everything clearly. Iwish all service providers were as knowledgeable as he is!

Jake was polite and efficient helping us diagnose an issue with our sewer system and keep our basement healthy and dry 5 stars!

Antonio did an excellent job with my sump pump replacement!! He was very knowledgeable, polite, and professional. He answered all my questions and took time to explain the procedure during the install. He is a very pleasant and competent person and I hope to work with him again for future maintenance.

Prevention Maintenance on Dehumidifier installed last year and previous year waterproofing and water heater installed.

Tyler was the rep who did the inspection. Tyler went over with me the process and if I had any concerns which he should note. I told him it gets extremely cold in the basement & during the cold weather my heat goes on more frequently than it did previously. He actually took the time and explained all the assets of the dehumidifier. The person who installed the unit, did not go over everything with me.

Outside, he went over the areas of his findings. He understood I cancelled having the downspouts buried last year, due to my sprinkler system. He had a video showing me how PAS could fix cracks with poly level. He was patient with me as I wanted to thoroughly understand the necessity of having this done. After his video’s/drawing pictures showing I understood the process.

Overall, I felt Tyler did an exceptional job. He is very acknowledgeable, patient. You are lucky to have a dedicated technician! I hope next year he does my inspection again.

Doro and Louis were wonderful. On time, polite and professional and they did a great job. They cleaned entire area and raised the concrete and cleaned up wonderfully. They explained what they did and the warranty – was very impressed with everything. Bottom line I would use them again and would request Doro and Louis.

My family and I had the pleasure of working with a great team for the installation of our flood control system. The entire crew was great. Manny, who completed the electrical work, took the time to troubleshoot some issues that came up and communicated with us throughout the process. Gilberto and his team completed the excavation and plumbing side of the job. Gilberto and team were communicative and transparent throughout the process. They even discovered we had been overcharged during the initial contracting process and worked to adjust our overall loan amount. We would glady recommend this team.

Tony W. wad very professional and courteousl. He explained everything throughly and help me to understand everything necessary to waterproof my home.

From beginning to end this has been a wonderful experience…Ken and his survey of the problem and estimate (see my previous review for Ken Allan Laundie) to Lisa Kapun and her help navigating the execution of documents, scheduling and financing and then finally the fantastic crew that did the installation. Pedro the crew chief was very considerate, punctual, called ahead of time of arrival, explained what was to be done on the days they would be there, kept me informed and answered all of my questions. Manny, the electrician was fantastic…he was punctual as well, did not rush the job, he assessed the situation, came up with a plan, explained the process, was clean and tidy in my home and did a terrific job. He explained everything when he was done, showed me how everything worked and gave me parting instruction. The whole crew was friendly, tidy, hard-working, respectful of my home and property and did their best to leave my yard in almost the same way as they found it…which is kinda hard to do when you are digging up a huge whole, installing the system and then trying to fill it back up. Victor, Clemente, Marco and Usbaldo were great guys, very kind and hard working. I was amazed to watch the whole crew work together. They had a great rhythm, worked well together, it was as if they had all been working together their whole lives. I will now have a relationship with Permaseal for as long as I occupy my home and am very comfortable going forward that everyone that comes out for yearly checkups will be as professional and terrific as all these guys were. I would recommend this company to anyone especially if you want some peace of mind going forward about your basement and it staying dry.

Nicholas was very thorough and professional. He provided me with a great overview of the problem and the solutions he recommended, answered all my questions and explained the process in a easy to understand manner.

Tony D. was terrific! He deserves 5 stars for wonderful communication! Tony is very professional and takes the time to explain everything.

Well informed survey of my problems concerning water leaks.

Nick Liguras provided a thorough inspection of the trouble spots in the home and gave clear explanations of the both the problems and repair recommendations. He listened intently to the issues and offered practical solutions to address the issues upon inspection. He listened intently and addressed all of my questions in a pleasant, professional way. Our exchanges reassured me that PermaSeal could provide a workable solution.

Nick was very knowledgeable, thorough and very engaging. We are very happy to have done business with him!

Tony Wong was informative, friendly and patient as we decided what to do to protect our home from water seepage in one corner of the basement. I will highly recommend Tony!
Thank you for sending Tony

Extremely upset and disappointed with our service. We had some water issues in our basement and were told that this was caused by hydrostatic pressure and that drain tile would 100% solve our issue, and if it didn’t, we had a lifetime guaranty covering us if we ever got water again. We had the system installed in January 2023 and it seemed to be working, but during heavy storms last weekend (September 2023) we once again got water in our newly finished basement in the same exact spots. After fighting to get someone from PermaSeal to come out a few days later (they originally told me it would be over a week before they send someone), they said that the drain tile system is working fine and that the guaranty only relates to the drain tile system working and proceeded to recommend we reach out to a plumber to see if there’s an old sewer line or pipe underneath the ground that could be causing the issue. I was shocked at the suggestion that this burden should be on us and that we should have to pay to have a plumber come out when this was never brought up as a possibility when we originally had the basement inspected and signed the contract.

So we are now sitting with water still in our basement and are probably developing mold with a newborn baby in the house and PermaSeal has taken no responsibility. We were sold a bag of goods and paid $12k for a drain tile system that did not solver our problem and now PermaSeal isn’t living up to their promise or alleged guaranty now that we actually have water and is instead claiming that there is a separate issue that was never mentioned before. If this isn’t rectified we will absolutely be leaving this review everywhere and spreading this message to friends and family in the area, as well as pursuing any available recourse.

The crew that came out was awesome their work is very satisfying and complete.They were so good my husband named them the TwoLiveCrew

John Ferguson came to the house asked lotts of questions and looked at the issues I described and was very informative of the work I needed to correct these issues. He explained the procedures very well and answered all the questions I had. I’m pretty confident Perma Seal will be the solution I was searching for as they are the only company that offered a lifetime warranty on the foundation work being repaired on my home.

Mauriano and Mauro did a great job repairing cracks in my basement foundation. Their work is professional and thorough. I am relieved to have these cracks in the foundation gone. They left the entire work area so clean it was hard to believe all that was done without dirt and dust everywhere. I highly recommend a business that hires men as capable as Maurino and Mauro! Great concern for the customer!

Id like to thank Ramon Duron for his quality in repairing my foundation. great job!

Ramon D.and his assistant JL Duron came to my house on 3/1/19 answering a service call. I had water seepage in basement due to a foun dation crack. They were prompt, finished the job, cleaned up after, and very polite and professional. I would use them again and recommend Perma Seal to all homeowners in need. thank you

Dick F. came out to look at the crack in our foundation that was professionally sealed years ago before we bought our house but was now leaking. He reviewed with us the various ways in which we could have the crack fixed and was clear in his explanation, knowledgeable, and friendly about it. I would recommend working with Perma-Seal.

I’ve used PermaSeal a few times over the years to repair some foundation cracks. Vicente contacted me prior to arrival and was very polite and punctual, which I greatly appreciated. After a brief discussion with him to better educate myself, he was very open about my repair options and future possibilities should additional work need to be done. After that he went to work and knocked everything out pretty quickly. We reviewed everything that was done and he was on his way. You can’t help but respect a person who comes in, educates you and does his job with great customer service skills. This has become a lot art form. Thank you

I had major seepage problems, the crew that came and did the work were excellent. They jackhammered my basement floor and installed a new sump pump basin and sump pump and installed a French drain beneath my foundation. They kept the mess to minimal and worked very hard. I also had 2 minor problems after the work and Permaseal did come back and address them both. My problem is with the salesperson, Jim A. he was very responsive until I signed on the dotted line. I am still waiting to get a paid copy of my invoice and when I signed off on the job at the end of the day the crew chief said that they would come back in spring to finish the outside because my work was being done in the middle of January, sounded fine with me. Now nobody seems be able to verify this and are saying that it is an extra charge, really? I was sold a complete project from start to finish per Jim. Now I can’t even get him to respond. In addition, he gave me poor information on two points of my basement project that could have been major problems if the Permaseal crews had not corrected his direction.

My patience paid off. The first technician Perma-Seal sent out for service didn’t seem to have a clue of what he was doing. Nothing got done, in part because I felt it best to have another technician do the work. Trusting in the reputation Perma-Seal has established for themselves, I waited it out for another technician at a later date. I was so right!!! I haven’t had a drop of leakage in my basement ever since.

Howard installed a new water heater and replaced the ejection pump. He worked professionally, answered questions, and cleaned up the work area.Manuel worked quickly repairing a crack in the basement wall. He remembered working at our home when Perma-seal installed the basement waterproofing. We have a Perma-seal preventative maintenance agreement to ensure we do not have any water problems. We have only had good experiences with the Perma-seal employees.

Gene showed up promptly for our annual inspection maintenance. He notice that the pumps were too close together and the PVC from the pump area was crooked. He straightened everything out, and the pump is quieter and working nicely. He was professional and courteous, and did an efficient job. Highly recommended.

Chris DeLuca replaced our original pump the other day. He was a delight to work with. Professional, Personable. A real pleasure to work with.

Sump pump quit working. Replaced under warranty. Matt said a separate circuit world be advisable. Put a new box in, ran conduit across entire basement to pump. Matt did a fantastic job and I wouldn’t hesitate to call again for any problem in the future.

Doug came on time and provided pump maint.He also processed a wall crack request and scheduled a repair time .He was knowledgeable, friendly, and courteous.Thanks

We needed to have a new water leakage on the basement floor checked and Ramon Duron couldn’t have been more thorough and efficient in diagnosing and then explaining the possible causes of the leak and then checking and replacing the sump pump back-up battery and water level alarm. He is an asset to your company and will be asking for him by name for any further work. Fair pricing and a great job!

Would like to thank Matt Tomfohrde who came to my home to wire in a separate breaker for my new Sump Pump. Not only did he do the wiring in a quick time frame also relabeled my electric panel for me. This is a good safety measure. He explained everything for me and labeled my panel as to know what switches are used for. Did a good job for me. Thank You

Allen Laundie was efficient in checking to ensure that my sump pump was functioning properly in this bitter cold weather. He also was thorough in explaining to me the importance of having a back up sump pump which will be installed next week.

Vincente and Mario were personable, worked efficiently and answered all of my questions plus they cleaned up the job site and left everything spotless.

Sean was informative. The videos where very good. The booklet we got in mail was very informative.

Sean was my rep. He was very professional. We walked through my options with me and was helpful in making a decision.

After the gas company changed pipes on my property, several sections of my sidewalk were not level. Since they are on not the city’s property, they were
not fixed. Cecil Payne came when I called for an estimate. He was friendly and did the measuring on the sections of sidewalk that needed work. He was
most informative and explained what needed to be done. Pictures on his laptop indicated the different options that I had for addressing the problem. I
decided to have the work done, and he was able to schedule a date next month. His professionalism leads me to believe that the work will be done
properly and reflects well on your company.

Tom was very pleasant and thorough in explaining what work needs to be done. He is very friendly.

Sean was on time and text me day before to give me an eta. His solution was what I feel is correct and I decided to move forward. I had Permaseal do work before and I will continue to use them in future.

Anthony explained things thoroughly and gave good options!

Anthony was very friendly, professional and respectful of my home, which I very much appreciated. He clearly explained what he was looking at at also clearly reviewed his findings and recommendation. He thoroughly answered all of my questions and reviewed the pros/cons of taking advantage of the various services offered by Perma-Seal. I would gladly have him be my primary POC at Perma-Seal.
