After years of getting a substantial puddle of water on our basement floor after every rainfall, we decided to take action because of the higher than normal mold content in both the basement and upstairs level of our ranch-style home. We had received a bid from EverDry a fews years earlier after encountering them at a Home and Garden expo in Erie, but were not able to have the work done at that time. They gave us several options to alleviate the water problem: interior french drain only, exterior french drain only, or combination of both interior and exterior french drains with a sump pump and a permanently mounted dehumidifier. All three options were thoroughly explained both verbally and with easy to understand diagrams. We chose the third more complete option as we felt it would be most effective, but at no time were we pressured in any way to make that choice. The work was carried out completely and professionally, with each step explained along the way as the work progressed. Upon completion of the project, we were informed that if anything unusual should appear we should not hesitate to contact them. Well as it turned out, some hairline cracks did appear in the final coating of the interior drainage system within about a month. We notified EverDry and they had a crew back within a week to reseal the few cracks that had appeared. Since then, there has been absolutely no more cracking or other defect in the workmanship, and most importantly, there has never been a hint of moisture seeping into the foundation from rainfall or spring snowmelt. We now have carpeting, furniture and most of our son's toys in the basement.....something that was unthinkable prior to the efforts of EverDry and their skilled and knowledgeable staff. We are very pleased with the results and would recommend EverDry to any homeowner experiencing water problems. Thanks again and keep up the good work!
