Questions before you book
Know what you are buying.
Specific product, warranty, price, and schedule details are confirmed in the written scope.
Can you tell me the right repair before I commit to work?+
That is the purpose of the basement assessment. The visible leak is not always the source, so the assessment looks at drainage, grading, foundation entry points, the sump system, and when the problem occurs before a repair is recommended.
Will I receive a written scope?+
Yes. The proposed repair should identify the area being addressed, the system or materials recommended, what is included, and any warranty terms. Final warranty details must be confirmed by the business owner before publication.
Can I send photos before the assessment?+
Yes. Photos of the leak area, foundation wall, sump pit, discharge line, and the outside grade can help the assessor prepare, but an on-site visit may still be needed to identify the cause.
