Recommended Customer Reviews
I needed five cracks in my basement filled. Jesus was very kinda and went straight into the repairs. He did a really clean job and gave me a timeline to when to do things like put the wall back up.
Had them come out for an estimate on concrete repairs. Cecil explained things clearly and thoroughly. Gave me a very reasonable price. Showed up right on time. Couldn't have asked for better consultation.
They are a predictable service. No hassle of calling dozens of contractors for an opinion, with stop and start projects. The warranty is key. Crews are always highly professional and courteous.
My experience having Perma-Seal come out and quote on our job was extremely positive. We have a 50 yr old cement patio which has many large cracks and some minor sinking. Cecil came out to measure/quote and did a fantastic job answering all of my questions. He was extremely knowledgeable, professional, friendly, patient, and honest. He explained every aspect of the job, clearly and efficiently. The pricing was fair and in line with expectations. I signed off on the job and scheduled it for the Spring. I would recommend this company to anyone needing cement cracks filled outdoors or inside. Ask for Cecil!

Had my basement sealed about a week ago and they did an excellent job. They showed up on time and removed all debris. I would definitely recommend.
Sergio and his two partner came and extended the water without extra charge. I appreciate this.
I had Perma-seal come out to look at some foundational issues and drainage issues. Jesse was prompt, polite, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. He answered all my questions and gave me several potential solutions for my problems. He also provided his number in case I had any additional questions.
Allison H.Rob did a great job explaining our options! We appreciated his thorough review so we can make the best decision for waterproofing our home.
The absolute worst company to deal with possible! They absolutely do not stand behind their work. I hired Perma Seal to fix a leak in my basement foundation only to have it continue to leak during the next heavy rain. When I brought it to their attention, they made excuses as to why it isn't covered. There are better, more reliable options out there.
Rob was great and thorough. He discovered the source of water coming into basement and a mold issue in crawl space no one had discovered prior. Highly recommend.
