    MUST READ: so this will not even breach the surface of the stuff from these people!! As a quick…read morebackground, We are currently renters and this job was set up through the landlord. We will be purchasing this home however. The first day they came, they entered my home without knocking-and every day after that. Left trash in the yard. A week goes by-their hours are arrive between 8-9 am, leave by 12-2pm. I text and ask him if he can tell me about what they are doing before they head out because we will be buying the house. He told me "the scope of work was in the contract the landlord has." Umm-ok. I didn't bring it up again as he made himself clear-talk to the landlord if you want to know. During the weekends they were gone. I needed to go downstairs to do laundry-this is where the FUN really began. they had never turned any lights out and they had been on the whole week. I should have checked that myself. When I went downstairs I found out real quick they took the support out from under the stairs leading down! I went downstairs and was immediately SMACKED in the face with what smelled like old urine and sewage! There is a Pittsburgh toilet down there right under the steps, out in the open. We were told by landlord the toilet needed fixed before we ever used it. The Arbuckle's never asked me about it, but they used it. who knows how many times-they never flushed it and it sat there for days-I couldn't believe I didn't smell it upstairs because it made the whole basement smell! I cannot express enough how absolutely disgusting this was! When confronted he said "I take blame for the toilets, I'll tell my laborers not to use it" umm-ok and who is going to clean it?! Clearly not them! -The pathway to my laundry was riddled with tools, trash, and best of all an old-old electric plug box thing that was lying on my wet basement floor that is known for flooding. It was lit up and an extension cord was plugged into it, while it was plugged into my ceiling?! Only a picture could really describe this-I unplugged both. This is what they used to run the jack hammer. My basin sinks were clean when they got there, were now filled with tools and debris and garbage. They did not clean them up when they were done. Remember when I asked if we could discuss what they were doing down there and he replied with "it's in The contract". It came off kind of rude for no reason. I never expected to hear from him and Then THIS happens: when he texted me back about the toilet, he texts that after I asked him about it and after he sent his response, he "tried" to talk to me-let me explain: the door inside my home that leads to the basement-I locked it because I did not like how they entered unannounced. I have dogs, obviously he's aware of this. In his text he said he tried knocking on the door and every time he did the dogs started barking, he called my name out and no one answered. My first thought-nobody heard you over my dogs barking-hmmmm-ok. As he would have heard, they bark a lot-you learn not to react every time. Why didn't he just call or text me? Then tells me that he got my son's attention (who was home from school sick that day and happened into the kitchen to grab a snack), I don't know how long Arbuckle tried to get attention this way. This is the first I'm hearing of this (this happened a couple days prior to him texting me about it). He says he had my son come into the basement and he explained what they were doing and asked him to tell me and followed that with several question marks in the text-as in, he should have told you... what's the problem with this you wonder? My son is 13 years old and Autistic-not just I tell people he's autistic to explain away behaviors or get weird attention-he is actually diagnosed with Autism. He doesn't recall things well. this is absolutely not ok! How incredibly unprofessional. A complete stranger to take my child down to the basement and talk to him like an adult? I can keep going, but this last part was by far the worst!!! Now it's been approximately a month or more since they "completed" the job. Come to find out they took the cord for one of the dehumidifiers (there are two-it's that wet down there) and along with a second extension cord (two extension cord plugged together) plugged it into a regular outlet-NOT a GFI outlet and then plugged into the sum pump thing they installed!! Fire hazard much? They put cement on one half of the basement floor and did not smooth it out or seal it. the water that was originally seeping up through the floor is now seeping up through the cement and now over a month later is still covered in wet spots, They put the vinyl type of sheeting stapled to the walls, the kind of stuff that maybe goes behind the wall? This goes beyond poor customer service and poor craftsmanship. Overall...disturbing. I'm still processing everything!

    Scott and his team were outstanding. I needed extensive waterproofing done in my basement which…read moreincluded a cement block wall rebuild. I had 3 estimates and chose Arbuckle since Scott was the only one who estimated my job at the best price. I would absolutely recommend him at 5 stars!

    G&J put a French drain in my home less than two years ago. First off the workmanship was shoddy…read more The interior discharge pipe is just hanging out of the wall with the cement patch job on the interior side of the hole going to the outside being the only thing holding it in place. The cement patch work, interior and exterior, looks like it was done by a two year old. The "kids" who actually did the work were a couple of non-English speakers and someone who looked to be younger than my grandson. Less than two years later there are large cracks in the exterior discharge pipe. This causes the water that collects in the sump pit to just swirl around and go nowhere. This happens to coincide with a period of recurring rain, often heavy, over the past week. Of course the problem happened over the weekend. I emailed them about the problem on Sunday. To their credit, they did reply to the email. On Tuesday they emailed that someone would come between 10-2 PM the forthcoming Friday. In the meantime my wife and I spent the week (including in the middle of the night) bailing water out of the sump pit. Friday comes and I have to take the day off from work to be here when they come. But guess what? Nobody from G&J showed up and nobody from G&J even called. Instead they emailed me at 1:30 in the afternoon to say that most of their crews had called off because of a big storm the previous night (storm???). I blame myself for hiring these people in the first place. Don't make the same mistake. Stay away from G&J Waterproofing.

    I had a dry-fit retaining wall that was sagging alarmingly, so I contacted DiMarco. Jim asked for…read morephotos, he couldn't make an accurate appraisal so he stopped by within a day or two. He gave me a plan on what he would do, and I could tell he knew his stuff by virtue of remedying causal factors for the leaning, including improper drainage. I also had him look at a 1957 original kitchen exhaust blower that was now a dead end and fall hazard, wanting it taken down -- which I couldn't do safely on my own -- and a frustrating area where water would come into my office when it rained hard with a lot of wind. Jim said all the right things, and I was very happy with his quote. He communicated well via email about when he could come. He and his crew showed up and did a fantastic job. They bricked in the gap where the exhaust came out, properly insulating and sealing as they did so, and painstakingly addressed the likely factors in the water intrusion. I would hire him again in a heartbeat. I wish I had had him work on my chimney a couple of years ago instead of a certain other company who overcharged me and reneged on a necessary service they had promised but carefully not included in the contract. He would have done a better job and charged me less.

The integration of the new stone is seamless, making it impossible to distinguish from the original. We are very pleased with their work and would not hesitate to engage them for future projects. I highly recommend their services. (Before and after photos included)
