Promised to replace it and never did despite multiple follow-up calls. They also never alerted the municipality about an inspection of the final installation, so I had to contact an inspector myself. He classified the work as second-rate and "among the worst he's seen" in his 30 years on the job. I highly recommend other options for anyone considering a waterproofing job of magnitude.

My house was built in 1950. For 20+ years, whenever it continuously rained hard, or we'd get a…read moretorrential thunderstorm, we knew exactly which areas water would hydrostatically seep in as the water table rose. We would go through dozens of towels and often run 5-gallon shopvacs to try to keep streams of water from flowing across the floor and pooling into the finished part of our basement. Finally, I had enough. I called a few basement repair companies to come in, survey the problem, and give us estimates. The Basement Expert, with their simple approach, no-nonsense guarantee, and not trying to oversell us or suggest unnecessary steps, won the job. I couldn't be happier with their work! The job was done by a group of hardworking but affable guys. During the day, the foreman consulted with us and explained things every step of the way. The owner even showed up to check on the work and ask me how things were going. The job was completed and cleaned up in one day without too much disruption to our household. Since then we've had several storms that would've saturated scores of towels and repeatedly filled up the shopvac, including TS Debbie when it inundated our area with over 6 inches of rain in less than 24 hours. My basement now? Not a drop. It's true that one point early on, I saw a patch wetness in the concrete close to the edge of the new drainage line, but not real concerned about it. However, they had told me, "If you see any water at all, call us." So I did. They came right away and in about 2 hours tied that spot into the line, free of charge. The system has worked flawlessly ever since. Now, thanks to The Basement Expert, I can enjoy watching storms from my porch or living room instead of being confined to the basement and the drudgery of struggling against leaks coming in. I highly recommend these guys. Craig H

This is the second time we've hired them for home renovations, and they've been able to handle everything we asked from drywall to electrical and plumbing. The only downside I can come up with is that they're so good that they're always busy, so you'll want to schedule your work well ahead of time. Just remember, they're in demand because they're just that good. So be patient, and you'll be glad you were.

We built a home with Brookside that was completed a little over a year ago. We are extremely happy…read morewith the home and would recommend Brookside without hesitation. After we had settled on a plan (the Gabriel plan), I was impressed that one of the owners of Brookside came to the site himself to discuss with us the placement of the building and offered suggestions and resources that only someone with a great deal of experience--and local experience--would have been able to provide. Our property is heavily wooded and on an unpaved road in the country. Brookside was able to accommodate our location and assist us with everything we needed for a smooth build. We were living in California and working with the Brookside team primarily remotely. Our sales consultant/CAD designer, Joshua, was extraordinary to work with. His patience and expertise with the design changes, suggestions/recommendations and knowledge of the process was invaluable to us. This was the first home that we had built (although we were simultaneously involved with building an additional dwelling unit at our California property that took the same amount of time to build but should have been a much smaller project) and Josh made the process seamless. As with any building process (I am experienced in senior housing development), there were glitches along the way. We caught a couple issues during visits to the site which were immediately corrected. We also wanted a few changes after we saw the building taking shape which were also accommodated--some with a change fee, others not. For me, not being able to see a model home of the plan we chose (or other plans) was a bit of a negative. After the home was built it did not seem as large as I had pictured it and we wished had built a larger home: this was no fault of the builder, of course--just a suggestion for consideration when choosing a plan. The large variety of plans that Brookside offers and their ability to modify and customize the plans was a huge selling point for us. Our Brookside home is exceptionally well built and gives us great peace of mind that we will enjoy the home for many years to come. Our experience with Brookside has been excellent and they have proved to be a builder of integrity and value.
