Los Gatos Crawl Space Waterproofing

Paul and his crew were extremely professional and really did outstanding quality work.  They took the time to design the right solution for our needs and explained what they were doing every step of the way.  The crew was punctual, worked weekends when needed, and was very pleasant to deal with.  I would definitely hire them again. Price was in the middle of the bids I got but I can't imagine the work being done any better.

I called many companies to assess our leaky basement and only found three who would come out to look at it. Universal responded promptly, gave us a quote and scheduled the work within a reasonable period of time. The work went smoothly and was very thorough. Workers were pleasant and efficient. Unfortunately, we still have a very minor leak that is unresolved. Universal responded quickly to this news and made another repair. The minor leak is still there and may require a bigger fix. We're assessing next steps now.

Great! I would like to say what a great job McCartney did painting the exterior of our house. I had initially worked with Kieron McCartney through a referral for a water leak. Kieron provided an estimate for a waterproofing and painting a section of our house to deal with the water issues. My first impression was Kieron has many years of experience in waterproofing and painting so we worked with him for that issue. We were so happy with working with Kieron and his Guillermo (his foreman) that we worked with McCartney painting to paint the remainder of our house exterior. We were very happy with working with both Kieron and Guillermo (and the rest of the crew) that we want to say how pleased we were with the way the job turned out. I would recommend (and would work with again) McCartney painting for any painting or waterproofing issues. They are easy to work, do great work, and stand by their work.

They were cooperative with me and gave me a final price. I haven't decided yet if I'm going to be doing the project, but they seem reputable and so I will consider them.

They sent 3 guys out that started the work, and the last 2 guys that came out did a great job. So far things have been good.

Herb Fry Waterproofing Systems did a good and quick job with their estimate. However, we decided to go with a different company based on other reviews on Angie's List.

Morgan Construction completed a remodeling project and a waterproofing project for my house.  Both projects went very well. The remodeling project was for two bathrooms.  The tile work was exemplary -- great care was given to the cut, placement, and alignment of each tile.  The new glass shower door looks very stylish.  My bathrooms came out better then I had expected. The waterproofing project involved replacing the exterior siding of one wall and installing two new sliding glass doors and two new large windows.  I'm not a construction expert, but every step of the project looked like it was being done rock solid.  I'm no longer distressed about the rainy season. Dan, the owner of Morgan Construction, is very nice and does an excellent job explaining how he plans to tackle each project.  My original decision to go with Morgan Construction was based on Dan's explanations (and the fact that he didn't repetitively state "I'm honest, you can trust me" like so many other contractors do -- the more I hear it, the less I believe it). I highly recommend Morgan Construction.

Thompson's Basement Waterproofing was very professional. They did work on our second home while we were not there and they were able to handle this very well. They did a good job and cleaned up very well after the job was over.

The crew that did this job, led by foreman, Encarnacion Hurtado, was excellent. They were highly professional, very hard-working and very careful of our wishes re. the details of the project. The work went very smoothly overall, with no problems. The project took a bit longer than we originally expected due to a permit snafu with the City of Oakland. The crew cleaned up completely at the end of each workday, and they were careful with the front yard plants. The finished product is excellent. I would highly recommend All Seasons Construction for any concrete or foundation work.

Our two-story stucco house in south Bernal Hights was last painted in 2000, and was looking rather drab. But, great pixels were not our main concern. Most importantly, we were looking to waterproof, as much as possible, our windows and stucco. We had five south-facing leaking windows that were of special concern. Out of three estimates, we chose McCartney Painting mainly because owner Kieron McCartney was the most keen and knowledgeable about techniques to secure the house against the elements. Elastomeric painting (8-mm thick coating, I recall),  three-point sealing, and Sika Flex caulking between exterior wall and concrete intersections were some of his applied techniques appropriate to the needs of stucco. Also, McCartney offered a senior discount (proof positive we look our age) without our asking, making his quote the lowest bid. Another company did not offer elastomeric paints at all. The experience with McCartney Painting was very positive. Kieron surveyed our home within a week of bid request, submitted an estimate and contract the following week, and placed us into his busy schedule. Power washing, patching the many stucco cracks (some deep), caulking and sealing the windows and four door frames, the house painting itself, and the ironwork staining and painting all went smoothly and efficiently. His crew was very punctual, courteous, and helpful with trim paint recommendations. They cleaned up after work each day. Kieron, a calm person with which to work and collaborate, was very responsive to any concerns we brought up. The result looks great, and inspired some neighbors to also paint their houses. McCartney Painting is well worth your consideration.
