GBBasements.com is unsafe, incompetent, and untrustworthy. From 3/23/21 Bottom Line Up Front: Basements.com is unsafe, incompetent, and untrustworthy. I've uploaded a few photos to other review sites from my recent experience having a drain system and concrete floor installed in my home. They tell much of the story. If you want more details, contact me and I'll show you copies of all of the documentation. Here are some of the quick highlights: - The owner left me a voicemail that the job would take 3 to 4 days from a Wednesday to a Saturday, "soup to nuts." The job ended up taking more than 5 work days over a 9 day span. One reason why is because the job failed its first inspection because of a code deficiency. - When I first raised the issues with the job, Basements.com said on Tuesday, March 9 they would fix all of the issues by Wednesday, March 17. Then on Wednesday, March 10, Basements.com said they would in fact not fix any of the damage (some of which is shown in the photos) and would file an insurance claim. When I said this was unacceptable, they offered to reduce the cost of the project by about 14% but only if I released them from any claims of damage and signed a nondisclosure agreement. Please let my experience help you and your family make a better decision than going with this company. From 2/28/21 I put down a deposit 35 days ago for an expensive project. I knew I would have to wait for permits before the work could be scheduled. But apparently, Basements.com only applied for one permit and then had to apply for a second permit. That has delayed the start date. It's been a week since I got the second permit, but no one has contacted me with a start date. At the moment, it feels like I'm paying for nothing.

GBThe work they performed was good but… The work they performed was good but they did not finish and appears to have gone out of business. I read that they were insured by, Hanover Insurance but they can't help me unless I come up with the policy number, or the name they're listed under on Hanover's policy. Can anyone help.

GBWe were worried about how the end… We were worried about how the end product of our basement waterproofing project would perform because of the number of failures we had in the past. This became especially worrisome over the past month when the skies opened up with a powerful lot of rain. But our basement remained dry throughout and now we believe we can safely move forward with our basement refinishing project. Thank you Mid-Atlantic Waterproofing.

GBMid-Atlantic Waterproofing does Superior Work! Mid-Atlantic Waterproofing does superior work. They waterproofed our basement about 5 years ago. We have not had any water issues since they installed a second sump-pump pit and installed two sump pumps with a 7 year warranty on each. They also installed a battery backup sump pump unit for power outages. In addition they installed a new drainage system around the entire inside basement to facilitate draining to the sump pumps. We are very pleased with the contractor's work.

GBThe management and crew were experts The management and crew were experts, experienced, and efficient. This was a complex job that involved two adjacent rooms, was completed on time, and within budget. The county inspector stated that he had to do his job, but had never inspected a site completed by this company that didn’t pass. This was a very messy operation, but there was no trace of any mess - either inside or out. Highly recommend...
