  I wish I never did it. Professionals don't ask you how you would fix the situation. They asked me if I wanted a floor drain at the bottom of the bilco door where I had a little water seepage after heavy rain. In the end they didn't install one, and didn't do the miradrain there either and the problem persisted. The concrete they used in other areas was more porous than my existing floor, now it gets damp when the water comes in through their miradrain system. It's possible that the system doesn't work because there's no space for the water to run through and it collects under the new part of the floor. The new sump pit they installed into which they reinstalled my old sump pump (which they said was fine) filled with mud and ruined my sump pump. Luckily they are very responsive when I contacted them about the persisting problems and we discovered the pump problem when they returned to fix the areas where I was unsatisfied. The fixes were: 1. Added densifier to the 4 month old concrete, which doesn't seem to have done anything, it still gets moist when it rains; 2. added some round backing behind the waffle board shaped miradrain to prevent air from under the slab from coming up into the room (it doesn't); 3. installed miradrain at the bottom of the bilco doors AND a floor drain (which water could never get to now because of the miradrain but air from the sump pit now flows freely into the room through it). They also sprayed about 4 ounces of thyme based disinfectant around the room which made it smell nice for about a week. I still have efforescence happening on my walls which indicates water is still trapped in there, and it still smells like a basement. My goal was to make this into an exercise room. My goal was not achieved. If the fix they did was not the fix I needed they should have told me that. I know it's possible to eradicate basement smells - I've been in houses where it's been done. I should have asked at the time who they used and how that was done. It wasn't done by these guys.

  Premier Waterproofing LLC

  They are a great company and deserve all of the recognition they receive on Angie's List and online. They started and completed the job on time, and left the basement clean and spotless. They are still checking in with us to make sure the air quality in the basement is still correct. We would highly recommend Premier Water Proofing LLC to do any work that you may need done. It was a pleasure to work with Mike and Sam and I'm sure anyone else who uses them will agree.

  The areas were fixed with interior perimeter trenching, sump pumps, treating surfaces with a product to treat mold, and covering floors and walls with heavy plastic sheeting. The job was finished in two days and the owners and crew were punctual, professional, polite, neat and hard working.

  Premier Waterproofing LLC

  I called the company in the morning and in the evening, Mike of Premier Water Proofing was able to visit my home for a free evaluation. He is very professional and knowledgeable, and provided three possible solutions. At 8 PM the same day, Mike sent me the proposal by email. At this moment I'm still considering of doing some of the job myself, so have not signed the contract yet, but I'm impressed by this company, and am satisfied by the evaluation.

  Sure Seal Waterproofing Co

  The provider came out to give us an estimate within two days of our call, gave us a fair price( 15% lower than an estimate from another contractor), recommended that we tie back any plants that extended over the drive in order to avoid damaging the plants, explained both what could and could not be accomplished by sealing the drive, explained their scheduling process and timing, accommodated our scheduling needs and the followed through on time when promised.

  My basement is 115 years old. Before it was waterproofed, it was dank, dark and the floor had deteriorated so badly it was worn down to the dirt in some places and mushrooms were cropping up.  When I walk down the steps, now, it is such a pleasure to see the improvement! 
  
  

  I am very happy with contractor?s work from estimate to finished product.  They kept me informed, explained what I didn?t understand and did everything they said they would.  The partners and their crew were a pleasure to work with?polite, pleasant and professional.
  
  

  I was going to wait a couple weeks before providing a review, but with the snow this past week and then the heavy rain, my new basement was put to a rigorous test and passed.

  The owner, Ross, was the person who came out to give us an estimate. He was very professional. He explained exactly what was happening in our basement. I am in the pool business, so I have some idea about water problems. His explanation seemed very straight forward and accurate. He gave us 3 options. We chose the least expensive one. He scheduled our service for a day that worked for us. He personally came exactly on time the day of service with his crew. They did a great job, and cleaned up very nicely. Without asking, he reminded me that there was a $150 discount for Angie's list customers.  I have waited to write this review until we had some good rains.  My basement has remained dry for the first time in 25 years. Highly Recommended!

  Francis X White Builders Inc

  The job went quickly; in and out in 6 hours.  They worked without a break (rain was headed our way) and got everything finished in record time.  When the rain came, the drain worked just as it was intended to.  My basement is now bright and my guests will be safe now that there is a second way to get out in case of a fire.  Frank and his crew were VERY professional.

  Thompson's Basement Waterproofing

  We called for an appointment to discuss remedition for our basement walls. The walls had cracks where water was leaking in.  A company representative came to our house at 8pm on a weeknight to discuss repair options. He discussed all available options as well as pricing and longevity pertaining to each option. After deciding on an option, we set up an appointment for the repair work.  Four workers and one inspector came to our house to do the repair. They were mindful of our off white carpets and put floor coverings down for protection. While they were driling the cement in the basement and sealing the walls, they kept us informed on how the process was going and all the next steps needed. They were highly professional, courteous, clean and very friendly. After the job was completed, we had a few followup questions and they responded quickly. I would highly recommend this company.
