Work Performed: Main Line Waterproofing made our wet basement a dry space that we were able to turn into a kids’s playroom and home theater. What was once a space that no one used even for storage is a place my children play in every day, and where I watch sporting events on our big screen television. What was uninhabitable space is now our favorite room in the entire house.
They were very fast to respond to our initial call. Herb was the person that oversaw the work. He provided us with a very competitive price for the work, and were mindful of our budget. He gave us a detailed plan of what our options were, providing samples of some of the materials they would use in the waterproofing process.The workers showed up on schedule and on time. They installed a french drain all around he perimeter of the basement, digging out a trench and installing conduits to channel any water to one of two sump pumps that were installed in discrete yet functional locations in the basement. They filled in the trenches with special concrete and left the job clean, with no traces of construction evident. The pumps run as needed automatically, and Herb also installed battery backups for the pumps. If there is a power outage, my basement will remain dry as the pumps will draw on the battery as needed.
Finally, Herb installed a dehumidifier that keeps the air on the entire floor as dry as I wish. After a very(!) wet summer, my basement remains dry. Most importantly, Herb and Main Line Waterproofing stand behind their work. If there is follow up work that is necessary, they are fast to respond. Any time I have had an issue, Herb came out right away and made thing right. I would recommend Main Line Waterproofing to anyone.
