I messaged Ryan about a drainage issue I had with my back outdoor staircase. He helped me troubleshoot over text and was able to solve the issue for me without even coming out or charging me. I'm very grateful and impressed. Highly recommended. read more

We hired forever-Dry to repair water in our crawl space. We didn't have a sump pump or dehumidifier. They put in a drain tiles and rocks to eliminate the problem. Then connected the sump pump and dehumidifier. Ryan gave us an estimate we approved and work started almost immediately. The workers were punctual and professional, and 3 days time work was completed. Ryan spent more than the estimate and Ryan, Jeff and Bob were very hard workers. I would like to thank them very much for the great job that they did, I would recommend them to everyone. Trump should have hired them to do the reflecting pool in Washington. They would have done a better job. thanks again. read more

Ryan and his crew did a fantastic job on two foundation cracks in my foundation. Would recommend them to all who need similar work.

I had researched quite a few companies before I decided to reach out to Ryan Lesak at Forever Dry Basement Waterproofing. I wanted to avoid dealing with larger, well-known companies. Quite frankly, based on past experiences with contractors, I didn't want to deal with sales people. People whose only job is to sell and aren't responsible for performing the actual work themselves. Salespeople are more interested in up charging and selling things you don't need in order to over-inflate the invoice and possibly earn a bigger commission. I prefer working with smaller, local companies that are honest and have a great reputation. That is what prompted me to reach out to this company. My experience working with Ryan Lesak at Forever Dry was wonderful. I can't say enough good things about his company. He was on-time for his appointment, super friendly, genuine and extremely knowledgeable. Not to mention, before the visit he spent 30 minutes on the phone with me discussing the issue, thinking it may be a foundation issue, and providing sound advice regarding condo bylaws, real estate, etc. His father happens to be a real estate attorney. After spending time investigating the issue, which included cutting some dry wall and visiting my next door neighbors unit, Ryan discovered the seepage I was experiencing was a result of my next door neighbor, (connecting townhome unit), who had some long-standing issues that they didn't fix in a timely manner. Their hot water heater was leaking and the condenser on their AC unit was clogged. The constant flow of water on in their utility room floor was seeping into my basement. Unfortunately, I incurred damage to my unit as a result. Ryan recommended resources I can call (handyman & carpet repair) once my neighbor resolves their issues. Despite my constant insisting, Ryan refused to charge me for the visit. This is unheard of. Who does that these days? No one! My experience was extremely positive with this company. I will definitely refer this business to anyone needing waterproofing repair. I am grateful I found this company. read more

Responded to request came and gave fair estimate. I recommend always using small local companies..

I have used this company twice for different repairs and have been very pleased with the results. Ryan and Justin are knowledgeable and very skilled at their trade. I would strongly recommend this company to anyone who has water seepage issues. read more

Have Seepage issues that we couldn't figure out, Forever Dry responded to my call within an hour, did an inspection with a lot of investigation and determined it was not a structural foundation issue, overspill, caulking and tuckpointing issues. I would highly recommend. read more

We discovered water in our basement. I texted Ryan and he happened to be in the area on another job and he came within 30 minutes to look at the problem. He gave us a recommendation on how to address it and gave us a fair price. And he was able to do the work the next week. It's now fixed and the best part--we just had 24 straight hours of rain and NO water. Thanks, Ryan and team! read more

I was looking for quotes to fix a foundation crack so I texted Forever Dry and Ryan responded shortly after. I sent him a few pictures and he was able to quote me over the phone and a few days later my issue was fixed. Very knowledgeable and honest. Straight forward and no "sales pitches" like other companies. Highly recommend! Thanks Ryan read more

Ryan came out with a helper and sealed up four cracks in our basement which were seepage makers for years. It's been about two months or so since our work was done and no leaks yet! I'd say it's a win! read more

I've talked with Ryan twice now, called him in a panic with questions about water coming into basement of house I'm building. He ran me through all scenarios, asking me all kinds of questions to determine best he can before setting up an appt to cost me money. Sure enough, he's been able to rule out a need for his services at this time, saving me money and headaches, twice now! He's super responsive, very honest and knowledgeable. I almost hope I'll need his services just to be able to pay him for all his help! Alternatively I'll keep his number in my phone and tell anyone that this is the one who will help and be there when needed. Totally fair, nice, straight shooter. Thank you Ryan!! read more

Ryan is amazing!!! He responded super fast and was extremely helpful concerning an old crack in our basement foundation wall and leakage from our chimney clean out door. He is honest and knowledgeable. We are on the Northside so it was too far for him to come (we are out of his service area) but he gave us a great referral to another company and answered all our questions anyway! He really cares about people and is 1000% who you want on your side. read more

Bought a house recently and the inspector didn't notice there was a leak in the den downstairs. Ryan came out and didn't try to upsell me and told me what we needed to do. He sealed that corner and taught me proper foundation management. We've had a couple of hard storms since and there is no leak. Would definitely hire again. read more

Had an overspill issue and some cracks repaired by them last year. Basement is totally dry now. Very knowledgable and reasonable. Highly recommended read more

Two years ago I bought a house in NWI and fortunate for me I found out I had a foundation crack. I was referred to forever dry and met Ryan. Ryan came over and saw the crack could not be epoxied but rather had to be sealed up on both sides. Ryan came back with a helper and within a couple hours my foundation crack was gone. To this day it has still not leaked. If I ever have any other issues or somebody needs help I will definitely be calling Forever Dry again. read more

Called Ryan when we had some old carpeting pulled and found a large crack in our slab. Sent him a picture and he informed us it's normal and expected in slabs but to have them level out the ground instead to correct the floors. When we mentioned this to our contractor putting in the floors he said that's exactly what he was thinking but knew we wanted piece of mind and to talk to an expert first. Something so simple and Ryan helped tremendously! read more

Great knowledge and informative. Helpful and unbiased insights for the work. Thanks Ryan for your customer service and knowledge.

Called and asked for an opinion on a basement. He went there gave me some advice never charged me and haven't had the problem since. Thank you. read more

Ryan came out to fix a huge crack and gave me an estimate. Turned out the crack was worse than expected. Ryan stuck by the quote and went above and beyond. I've had contractors that have come to the house and have complimented his work. The crack was fixed in the winter. I wanted to wait before I gave this review for actual rainfall. Everything turned out great with the nasty storms. I will continue to use his business when the next project is started in my house. read more

Ryan provide so professonal service, and he help me fix all cracks and even an unfounded crack. I will recommend him to all my friends who need waterproofing service! read more

Ryan came out to my house to take care of a crack I found in the basement. I have a contract on my house and after cleaning and moving things in basement I found the crack. He showed up today. Inspected the basement. He fixed two cracks and educated me on how to help avoid future cracks. I wanted this done prior to inspection. If I ever need this service again, I will be using this company. Thank you, Ryan. read more

Ryan came and have me an estimate the day that I called. He was knowledgeable, professional, personable and a straight shooter. Job was done well and have had no issues since. I would use them again. Highly recommend read more

Ryan was honest, accommodating and right on time. And that was just for starters. He realistically assessed the problem and gave us a straight shot. I am in Pittsburgh working full time and in the process of selling our house to move my family here. My 19 year old son met with Ryan in my stead and Ryan talked him through the whole thing. When my son told me about it he said "dad, he's a good guy and was realistic about the repair. We have got to bring him our business". Thanks Ryan for treating my family with respect and taking the time. You will have our business read more

Guys know what they are doing! They answer your questions. They give warranty. They clean up after themselves. Work looks solid! read more

These guys installed drain tile in our basement last summer. After last night's torrential rains, our entire street was flooded - car interiors had to be bailed out, loose landscaping floated away, etc. Our basement is completely dry, not one drop of water the whole night. read more

We are so very happy with the consultation and work done by Forever Dry in our home. After we received a quote from another vendor, we spoke with Jim from Forever Dry. He told us what work we needed for our basement...without the fluff we didn't need. We ended up spending less than half of what was quoted with the original vendor, and received excellent consultation on how to implement what was needed to ensure a dry basement for the long-term. We had a drain-tile installed, an additional sump pit with pump and battery-backup pump and I'm not nervous when it rains now. We also had a drainage system installed in one of our window-wells that didn't have one. And, all of the people that did the work were courteous and professional. I am thankful a good friend recommended this company to me. read more

Ryan has come out to our house a couple of times to work on our basement. He is very friendly and knowledgeable. They are also very reasonable with their pricing compared to a Reliable Basement we had to have come out 3 times to fix our basement. I have never had to have them come out more than once to fix a problem. Highly recommended! read more

Ryan came across town to help fix cracks and seal some outside foundation for my house. He was knowledgeable and honest, he stuck to his quote. I have already recommended Ryan and his company to other family members. He has a life time warranty which was another great selling point for us! read more

We noticed some water in our basement back in October 2017. We called Forever-Dry and Ryan set up an appointment. It was fast and easy. Turns out we had 4 cracks. They were clean, on time and honest. Pricing was a plus too! No cracks and no water! I couldn't thank them enough. Communication was never an issue. I've even recommended them to a few of my friends. read more

Justin and Ryan came out to install drain tiles in my basement. They did an unbelievable job. They were honest, very knowledgeable, and the service went above and beyond. I appreciate the hard work that you guys did to complete the project. I wouldn't recommend anyone else for any kind of waterproofing work that needs to be done. read more

Forever-Dry blew me away by their expertise and professionalism. I had the pleasure of hiring them twice for my waterproofing needs. Dealing with a waterproofing issue can be stressful. Forever-Dry put my nerves at ease. During both projects, they went out of their way to educate me on the process and make things easy. I would recommend Forever-Dry to anyone in need of a credible and cost efficient waterproofer. read more

Excellent service. I had several areas of seepage in my basement. Justin came out within a day or two of my phone call requesting service (perma seal said they were available in 3 weeks). All the repairs have been completely dry, some required way more work then others. Never once a complaint from the guys doing the work. They cleaned up after themselves and left the house cleaner then it was before they started. Most importantly, not a drop of water since. They are licensed and insured. Very professional. read more

I liked them because they were reasonable. Quoted me a flat rate for the installation of my sump pump and gave me the option of purchasing it myself, or having them purchase and I could reimburse them. They even called me 45 minutes before arriving to ensure that I had purchased the pump so as not to waste anyone's time. I would definitely use them again. read more
