    We received a few other quotes as some showed videos and pictures but American Dry Basements brought actual pieces of materials they use and explained everything to the smallest detail. Three guys showed up and worked their buts off! I have a finished basement and put plastic up but the jackhammer they used had a vacuum attachment so no dust. All the stone and dirt was put in 5 gal buckets and debris was hauled away. Ariana provided excellent customer service. Thanks

    Paul Silva, operations manager, came to give me an estimate on water proofing my 100 year old stone foundation and even though the quote was too expensive, he spent over an hour with me talking and answering questions about not only trenching but also what I could do outside with my downspouts. I was so pleased I asked if I could call him if I had any questions about my basement. Super nice guy. Extremely helpful and knowledgeable.

    The company and products are as advertised. I had alot of water under and in my home. Workers were very hard working and thought the price was fair. However, within the first 3 months I had a pump get burnt out at 25K gallons pump (not ADBs fault) and I have stress cracks on the concrete around the perimeter where they jackhammered and covered with new concrete. If I could, I would give 3.8 stars overall.

    I wanted to share my positive experience working with Paul, the operations manager, at American Dry Basement System. Paul was patient and thorough in identifying the potential causes of my water issues. He even took the time to inspect my crawlspace and the exterior of my house. What impressed me most was his honesty in providing solutions to my problem that did not involve purchasing their svstem. I am grateful for his integrity and would highly recommend this company to others because of my experience with them.

    Update: 10/24: we had 2 crew men come and update the work. They ensured all areas of the wall were evenly treated and found that there was a leak at the ejector pump connection outside the wall that was brining water back towards the basement. I am glad that this was discovered and remedied.We appreciate the follow up and their commitment to customer satisfaction. We have changed our rating from 2⭐️⭐️ to 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.Update: 10/3: subsequent to this review, we are promised that a crew will come and address our concerns. We hope to provide an update at that time.Original review:We were really impressed by the work discussed in the youtube videos and on their website, but that’s where it falls short of expectations.The actual work was completed in a timely fashion but we had areas of poor coverage (photo) and overall design. We had a leak after the installation that had to corrected . After placing calls, we did not hear back.The background: We had new gutters installed that routed the water to an exterior area of our basement which started to bring in water thru the walls with heavy downpour. The system installed is really meant to capture water coming from underneath the floor and not the walls as was our case. Their design however did not take this into account after a significant investment $$$$ later, we are back to square one as can be seen in the pictures.Their office has not been consistent in their replies, once not showing up as scheduled and we are told about the staff turnover and other concerns within this offshoot of the original parent company.If you plan to go with their system make sure to clarify that the system meets your needs. An example of how poor customer service ruins a good company.

    My wife and I were experiencing water issues in December of 2019. We went through every company you can think of that works the State of Connecticut. We really had 2 companies that we were intrigued to hire. We decided to go with American Dry Basement Systems, because of their process/procedure in cutting the basement floor. As well as applying the super-slurry and super-crete. A crucial piece that was taken into consideration as our home was built in the early 1940s. As well as to have the peace of mind the structural integrity wasnt disturbed, waterproofing concept, and not introducing cold joints. My co-worker highly recommended American Dry Basement Systems and I have to credit the owner for having all the youtube videos as well as social media presence. These two avenues to get future customers is what truly sets them apart from competitors. So much knowledge is transferred!Our sales representative Dennis, was amazing when he entered our home and explained everything. Of course he knew it was a touchy subject since our basement was finished. To need demo and reconstruction was a big concern, however we knew to correct the issue was the most important aspect. Dennis received a lot of phone calls from me, he definitely was easy going on every question I had and help ease our minds. Within 3 weeks of signing everything the work started. The crew lead by Jamey were great!! They were able to get the concrete opened up and partially trenched within a day. Total completion time was 3 days, but I rather the quality of work done. We wanted the guys to work in an environment they enjoyed. We offered them soda and water. We even gave them a bluetooth speaker to use while they were working to enjoy music. They were very thankful for the hospitality we showed them.After all said in done, the work was completed to our satisfaction, they was a slight issue with the concrete level to the existing floor. I let the customer service representatives know and immediately contacted me to schedule a foreman to come by the house on Wednesday.Overall I am giving American Dry Basement Systems a 5 Star rating it has been an absolute pleasure for the company to customer / customer to company relationship. From the office, sales, and construction employees, they all were fantastic!!I cant wait to see this system work better to keep our basement dry!!! Especially nice to have a proper system over a bucket with holes and no channels connecting to it.

    We had seasonal flooding in the basement of our 1930s home. Paul came for our consultation and walked through options, answered questions, and gave us an estimate. The work crew took three days to install. They were experienced and fast. This work isnt cheap but Im happy to have a dry basement guarantee. Everyone I talked to at ABDS was professional, punctual, and responsive. Thanks for the good work.I may update later after seeing how the system handles spring rains.

    After getting multiple quotes I wouldnt go with any other company or install any other type of system. American Dry were the most personal and professional at explaining our water issue; after a lot of research their system made the most sense to us, Paul was extremely thorough. Priced where they should be, we are very pleased with the results: the new system is worry free and involves no yearly maintenance.They installed a French drain around the entire perimeter of our basement and sealed a few areas inside and outside of the basement where water could find its way in. The new system is quieter, and the back-up battery keeps our mind as ease in case of power outages.As first time home owners we saw water leaks constantly before getting fully flooded during hurricane Ida. Amid medium to heavy rain our basement with two sump pumps and a small French drain would still receive water leaking from the foundation, all the way up the wall between the cinder blocks. We came to find water was backing up in the walls, so they drilled weep holes at the base of the wall allowing water to access to the new drain relieving any pressure against them. This was not done by the previous company.Not even a water trickle for the first two months after rain has melted all of our snow. Will follow up come spring time.Look at the videos on the website and youll learn for yourself why they have the most comprehensive basement system.

    Excellent team. Right on schedule and finished the job as planned. Waterproofed 122 foot long Basement, and crawl space treatment. They didnt hesitate to increase team members to respect their calendar. Team completely cleaned up the area after completion of the job.

  • Review 10 (2024-08-19 - Rating: 5)

    This review is a little late, but thats my fault. Several years ago we had a basement drainage system installed by American Dry Basement. We would have water in the basement several times a year. Granted, it did not build up because the basement is a walk out to the driveway and the water that came in would just run out the door, but it was a mess. We were very hesitant because we were not sure it would solve our problem, but it did!! This was the best purchase we have ever made! Not a drop of water or humidity since the day it was installed. Yeaterday was the 2nd major storm since the install. We pumped out 20 thousand gallons of water since yesterday. At one point the pump was running continuously for a few hours. Not 1 drop of water. My nextdoor neighbor was flooded about 10 inches deep in his basement less than an hour into the storm. Hes still pumping out. The previous storm we pumped out over 40 thousand gallons of water over a weeks period. During that storm, the main pump and the backup pump were both running continuously and again, no water in basement. Were were very nervous, but the system did what they said it would. ITS WELL WORTH THE COST!

    American Dry exceeded our expectations. The job was done professionally amd timely from estimate to installation. We feel comforted that we won’t have to worry as the unpredictable weather becomes more frequent. Our home is protected and dry. Thank you Paul!

    We were suffering from water flowing out of the basement walls and onto the floor whenever there was heavy rain. It kept getting worse and we decided to call American Dry Home Basement Systems. Their Representative told us what needed to be done. We decided to hire them and were scheduled to have the repairs done in about 15 days. However, I woke up the next day only to find a flood in our basemen. We contacted ADBS and they were able to move their schedule around, thanks to their Rep and their customers. They came the next day and the 3 workers completed the job the same day. They did a good job and they worked very hard. We are so happy that we don’t have to worry about water in the basement again. Thank You American Dry Basement Systems!!

    Amazing service. Felipe and the entire team are professional. Their assessment of the problem was spot on. The service was quick. They made time to move us up earlier in the schedule to get the job done so we wouldnt have to wait. Our basement has thick 12 inch concrete floors and the guys worked extra hours to get the job done. I highly recommend them.

    Had a excellent experience all the way aroundFrom the very start. We made an appointment with Tina and it was for 2 weeks down the road . Dennis came promptly and was knowledgeable and friendlyWe decided to go with American because of Dennis. We were a bit afraid as the knowledge of breaking the interior floor was frightening but it was done professionally.The guys who did the job were great.So thank you Dennis and Tina and your crewEddie

  • Review 15 (2024-06-04 - Rating: 5)

    We just purchased a house, and our basement had a minor leak with wall seepage. I spent the next few weeks researching basement water proofers, and ultimately came across American Dry through a friend as well as a few other referrals. I met with each, and chose American Dry after meeting with Paul (they also have great Google Reviews). Paul came through with all his promises, and within 4 weeks I had 2 sump pumps installed, a linear french drain, with everyone piped to an outside dry well. I recommend this company for any basement water proofing needs. Theyre great, A+!!!!

  • Review 16 (2024-05-05 - Rating: 5)

    We had severe flooding issues in our home and someone I deeply trust told me to give Paul Silva a call from AmericanDry and that he was the best waterproofer in the northeast. When Paul came to give the estimate, he spent 5 hours with me and went over everything in extreme detail. I’ve never once in my life had an inspection be this thorough. Paul takes extreme pride in his work and it really shows. Our basement was actually flooding when he was over and he even helped me clean up.When the crew arrived to do the work, they were all extremely professional, clean, and answered all my questions as they arose. When the job was done, they did an excellent job cleaning up and left our basement spotless. Since our system was installed, we haven’t had any issues and I wanted to wait to write this review until after a mega storm to see what the result was. There was one day last month where we got almost 4 inches of rain (which is a LOT), and we didn’t get one drop of water in our basement.Paul has seriously been a lifesaver and I can’t thank him and his team enough. If you have flooding issues I wouldn’t hesitate to call him, it was worth every penny.

  • Review 17 (2023-03-23 - Rating: 5)

    We highly recommend AmericanDry Basements. Paul was our first contact with the company and he did a great job explaining the work that would be done and answering all our questions. The French drains (along with two sump pumps and two dry wells) were installed this week and they did an excellent job. We were very impressed with the professionalism and workmanship of Juan and his crew. They also took great care to carefully cover our belongings in the basement and to leave everything cleaned up when the job was completed. The job was completed on budget and on time as promised.

  • Review 18 (2023-07-20 - Rating: 5)

    Extremely satisfied with the work performed by American Dry Basement last September. Ive been thru almost a full cycle of seasons since having my drain tile system installed and Im happy to say I have a dry basement with a system which has experienced some serious downpours which I have confidence in and is backed up by their guarantee. Whats even more important is they took the extra time to address all my concerns (technical and otherwise) before and during and the process which was greatly appreciated. Never felt pressured to commit. For any home owner the work involved would be a nail biting experience but American Dry Basement made it as smooth as possible. Thanks once again for a great job. Youve helped me to move forward with the next steps to improving my home for my family for years to come.

  • Review 19 (2023-11-17 - Rating: 5)

    As a first-time homeowner, I could not have been happier with American Dry Basement. Throughout the entire process, Steve took the time to answer every question I had, explain the system we were installing, and why it was the right choice for the foundation I have. Steve was also nice enough to help me understand the different systems other companies had quoted me so I could make the most informed decision possible. Unlike other companies, I never felt pressured or overwhelmed. From working with Arianna to schedule to Alfredo and his crew who did the installation my experience was top-notch! Steve and his team are incredible and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone in need of a basement system!!

    ADB is a great company. The men showed up on time. They did a fabulous job rectifying my water problem in my basement. Cleaned up afterwards. Very professional and explained how the process works. I highly recommend them if you have water in your basement.

  • Review 21 (2024-04-01 - Rating: 5)

    These folks are top notch! My husband and I worked directly with Paul to get this system installed. After years of dealing with water infiltration, not a drop after that! Paul and the entire staff are extremely accommodating and the pricing was the best out there. You wont be sorry.

    Vincent and his crew was professional from day one. I also appreciate the attention to detail. They were here on time, instantly Vincent figured out how they would be able to get equipment & supplies in/out, they worked non-stop, they cleaned up as they worked & did a excellent job. I watched a bunch of videos from American Dry Basement and did some research before making a selection and they delivered.

    American Dry Basement Systems moisture and water-proofed my basement 10 years ago, so I can confidently write this review. They were one of the most stellar companies I have ever worked with. They were on time, were exceptionally clean (it is a 250 year old basement), courteous, and did such an exemplary job that the basement has never had a problem since. It was always wet with a partial dirt floor and stone walls. They took things that were in the way out of the way (always asking me first), put concrete down on the dirt portions of the floor, installed a French drain, and installed a sump pump, which has never had to be put to use they did such a good job.They didnt push me into making any decisions or buying anything extra. They explained what they thought would be the best approach, then let me make my own decision. They did their job, and they did it so well that years later people would comment on it, and how clean and dry the basement was.I would and already have recommend American Dry Basement Systems to everyone who has mentioned they have water or a moisture problem in their basement.

    I cannot express how happy we are with American Dry Basement Systems. We had a perennially wet crawlspace and the foundational wood joists for our house were beginning to rot. American Dry Basement came out and inspected our entire house and drainage situation - spent 3 hours with us going over everything, we learned so much. And the estimate they gave us was incredibly reasonable (including a significant Veterans discount that meant a lot to us). The execution of the work was great as well, they were super communicative, work was done quickly, efficiently and cleanly. Our basement crawlspace has been absolutely transformed, completely dry, clean and sealed. A huge relief for us as this had been an ongoing concern since we bought our house. Cannot recommend this company enough.

  • Review 25 (2022-06-13 - Rating: 5)

    From estimate to scheduling to completion the whole team were extremely professional and easy to work with, available to answer any questions that came up and/or address any concerns I had with the whole installation process. The foundation drainage & sump pump installation took about a day and a half and the crew were great; they kept me up to date on progress whenever I checked in and cleaned up after each day. Would be happy to recommend this crew for anyone who needs foundation drainage installations in the area!

    From the very first contact with American Dry Basements I felt like I was going to be in good hands. Then Paul Silva, Operations Manager, arrived at my home to discuss my basement waterproofing needs, it solidified my feeling about choosing the right company. Paul reviewed the processes that American Dry Basements uses and explained step by step how they were going to fix our problem.Then Johnny and his crew arrived to begin the work. They were here for 3 days from beginning to end and did a magnificent job. The work that these people do is amazing. Johnny explained to me step by step as they were performing their work and made me feel secure in knowing that the job was going to be done the right way.The crew was meticulous from beginning to end and cleaned up as they worked thereby reducing the amount of dust and debris along the way.I feel that we were very fortunate to have chosen American Dry Basements. I performed my due diligence in my research and discovered that American Dry Basements reputation far exceeded other companies of this type. After watching all the videos with my wife we realized that the choice was obvious.Thank you to Peter, the owner, for having Paul Silva on your staff. He is truly an asset to your company. Thank you also to Johnny and his crew for the hard work they did for me and for the work they do on a daily basis.I would strongly recommend to anyone with basement waterproofing needs to contact American Dry Basements. You will not be disappointed.

    3 months ago my basement flooded 3 times in one month. Looking for solutions I found a video of you on YouTube, I called, made an appointment and Paul came to my house, he explained the entire process to me, I kept watching videos of how they do their work and after a few days I called them and signed the contract, Then his group led by Jaime did a phenomenal job, from the first day the system started working and my basement remained dry, thanks to the entire American Dry Basement team for everything.

  • Review 28 (2023-06-24 - Rating: 5)

    Let me start by telling you my backstory. I live in a house built in 1929, it has a stone foundation. It wasnt until Hurricane Sandy that I felt the effects of a house that had no waterproofing and we had about three feet of water. We did a little bit of mitigation, and had no more problems for awhile. More recently, NY had five days of non stop rain and the walls in basement and flooring barely held it together. So thats when I knew I really had to do something. Every time we heard the weather report we would keep checking that basement and our little water pump. The water pump did ok, but we had wet vacs and worked like a team, but the water was coming up through the floors. Just a little 2-3 inches can cause so much damage.This is climate change, a lot of my friends were suffering from flooding for the first time and it wasnt going to get any better.So that was it, my husband and I interviewed four different places. They were all professional, but there was something about the detailed 2 hour interview that Scott Cort, one of their top inspectors did with us and we knew that was the place we were going to deal with. Plus he dealt with a multitude of questions from my husband and didnt flinch. He was patient, showed us exactly what they would do to protect the basement from flooding. He saw how stressed I was and just plain tired of this.It was a very comprehensive plan. Scott explained the lifetime warranty. The system is self-cleaning and requires zero maintenance. There is also a clog free guarantee. It included a PITBOSS waterpump with a wifi system and a backup battery in case the power goes out. He also told me that there would be very little dust. And there was very little dust. It only took two full days of his crew working nonstop.I was a bit nervous about cutting the walls, but he picked up the phone every time I called. If he was busy, he texted me right away and got back to me in 30 minutes. (And I call a lot).I am happy with the results. My contractor checked it out and said American Dry did a great job after dropping by to see the results.And most of all, we can sleep when it rains. We are ready!!! By the way, I have never written a review this long, but I needed to shout them out, and it was competitively priced!!Thank you AmericanDry, thank you Scott Cort. It was a pleasure!

  • Review 29 (2022-06-03 - Rating: 5)

    My installation was about one month ago, the estimate and on-site work were all done professionally and in a friendly manner. But I purposely waited to post a review to see how the system worked under real weather conditions. I am happy to report that with all the rain and stormy weather over the past weeks my basement area is totally dry and the system is working precisely as advertised and desired. My post-install questions were all received and answered in good cheer with courtesy and a great attitude. So.....good people to work with, a system that delivers what was promised, follow up as requested or needed. All good. Well done.

  • Review 30 (2022-10-24 - Rating: 5)

    After carefully evaluating several proposals from contractors to resolve water infiltration issues in our basement and crawl space, American Dry by far had the best overall proposal, solution and cost. Paul Silva was great! Hes professional, knowledgeable, easy going, and never tried to sell something that wasnt needed.Unlike the other contractors, American Dry wasnt high pressure and didnt try to upsell, and recommended only what was needed to address our specific water issues.American Dry did exactly what they said they would in their detailed written proposal. They were on-time, and their technicians did a great job installing, and cleaning up afterward.Results are what counts! Soon after heavy rains, wed normally have water coming into our basement and crawl space. After installation, I checked both after heavy rains and both areas are completely dry!We made the right choice, and I highly recommend American Dry, and Paul Silva to anyone needing to address water infiltration issues.

    We moved to a new home in Connecticut from New York in March 2022 and found the basement is damp and has a mold problem. We called American Dry Basement and their representative came to assess the situation and recommendated the french drain solution. I also invited over a friend who is a building contractor licensed in New York over and he said that based on the geography of my house, the french drain method indeed is the best solution. We later on signed the contract with American Dry Basement who came as scheduled and finished the work in one day. All through the process their front office periodically communicated with me to keep us in the loop. Now 10 months later, the basement has been dry without the mold problem ever since, even though weve been through some crazy torrential rain. I would recommend to anyone the American Dry Basement for their work quality, responsive front office, and also their very reasonable price.

    We got quotes from several basement companies for a basement drainage and sump system. American Dry Basements was the most upfront and honest, had the best price out of the bunch, and have a better system than the other companies we considered. The install crew was very nice and incredibly fast. They finished demolition, installation, and mold treatment in 2 and a half days, which is pretty amazing for 1900 square feet of work. But the most stunning part was how neat and on point the quality of their work was. Im amazed that American Dry Basement was the lowest price, best system, fastest install, and most amazing installation quality. I am so glad that there are still great companies out there like American Dry Basement. If you have basement issues that need resolving, these are absolutely the guys you want.

    Top notch company. Steve was my sales rep, he came out timely and explained the process thoroughly. The price was very reasonable, and they offered me an option to be on the waitlist if any cancellations came up. The crew was extraordinarily hard-working, professional and courteous. They insured all of my basement was tarped and protected during work. The jackhammering was obviously loud, as expected. They cleaned up and left everything neat, I’ve since heard the sump kick on a few times after hard rain, but the basement is dry. The process took 3 days start to finish. Steve was happy to answer questions I had after the crew left. I’d highly recommend using AmericanDry to anyone.

    American Dry Basement Systems responded to our on-line inquiry within a few minutes with a phone call and we quickly set up an appointment to evaluate our situation. Their technician came out, evaluated our issue of water in our crawl space, proposed a solution, and we accepted his offer. We felt the cost estimate was fair and a a good value for what they proposed to solve our problem. The next day they called and we established a project date. A few days later we were pleasantly surprised when they called again and said they could do the project even sooner. which we took advantage of.On the day of the project, a 3 man crew arrived on time and got right to work. They worked very hard in a tight area and had to remove material and carry in new material bucket by bucket. They were very neat and really worked hard. The project was completed in 1 day as promised and our basement crawl space has been dry ever since.We were really happy with the whole experience and would recommend American Dry Basement Systems to solve your wet basement issues.

    Very professional and efficient. Completed the work in only 3 days as promised. I was very impressed with how the crew cleaned up the job site each day and when they left my basement was legitimately cleaner than when they arrived. It feels rare to find a company these days that is so professional and provides a great value. I would definitely recommend them.

    We called American Dry Basements in a time of panic — we’d already had a lot of work done on the basement and foundation. Every time it rained (at least three big rains), our basement flooded, we wet-vacuumed to no avail, and my husband and I started to question our home purchase. This team was so professional and knowledgeable, and the guarantee is unbeatable. We couldn’t believe the speed and quality of the work. We actually look forward to tracking the sump pump on our app every time it rains. Haven’t used the wet vac in months!

    I picked American Dry Basement over two other firms. Their salesman Dennis explain the details of their system and its advantages in a very understandable way, which I appreciated. Americans price was very competitive and my warranty is transferable to the next owner of the house.Their crew was a pleasure to be around, finishing the job in under two days. Very satisfied with my overall experience with American.

    American Dry Basement Systems made it so our basement was able to be a finished basement. Our inspector told us the basement had never flooded and then it happened three times that fall after our closing. We called ADBS and they explained the process so a toddler could understand and then completed the work in less than 4 days giving us a dry basement and several months we built out a fully finished basement. Now its been over a year and it has not seen a drop of water and certainly no flooding. We are very pleased.

    Fabulous company to deal with. We found them from a very informative video that the company owner posted on Youtube (one of many). We received a comprehensive basement assessment within a week, and they completed the entire project (peripheral basement drain and sump pump installation) in a day, and there was not a single speck of dust left behind. Even at the site where they placed the dry well that they put in the front yard, you could barely tell that anyone had been there. Amazing. Bring the rain!

    American Dry Basement Systems provided an excellent solution to water in our basement. From start to finish working with American Dry Basement Systems was a great experience. The Sales Representative came to our house, assessed the situation, explained the solution in a very professional manner. His team delivered everything just as the Sales Representative had explained. The team arrived on time, they were very hardworking and professional. They completed the job in two days and even though the work was very involved, it was so well done, that you couldnt even tell they had undertaken such an involved project.

    Bottom line: ADBS exceeded my expectations in all areas.Details: Two years ago, our basement was a mess. During and after every heavy rain or snow melt, a small brook flowed from the east wall across the floor. My plumber called our house a river runs through it. A dehumidifier ran continuously all year long. Our house always smelled moldy. I thought the problem was the the old windows, but the ADBS salesman assured us that their system would fix the issue. I was skeptical, but their estimate was the lowest of any that I got and their reviews were excellent, so we decided to take the risk. The crew that did the installation ran into difficulties (for example, a giant boulder behind the wall they were drilling through) but there was never any mention of us paying extra for the additional work required. The work was completed two years ago, and since then I havent seen a single drop of water on the floor. The dehumidifier, which maintains 50% humidity, stops running in the fall and doesnt start again until late spring, and even then the basement feels dry and smells clean. We are completely satisfied with ADBSs work and I heartly recommend their services.

    I recently had a sump pump installed by American Dry Basement company. Quote was on the spot of inspection and very straightforward with the details. The installation was scheduled quickly and was done very professionally. When I had some questions/concerns about the pump water discharge a few days later, they came right out and fixed everything to my liking. Would highly recommend American Dry Basement for any basement jobs!

    ADB installed their perimeter system, and we live in a particularly difficult house, so unfortunately there were a series of problems that needed to be fixed. It took a little while but the company kept coming out to make the necessary adjustments and ensure the system functioned, and the dry wells were properly placed. In the end, I dont think anything will really be as good as make the significant investment in exterior waterproofing, but this company does good work, and if they dont get it right the first time, they will make it right.

    American Dry installed a system in our basement about 20 years ago. We were having serious flooding but they came and after explaining where the water was coming from (water table below ground) they put in a system that has never failed us. Recently we noticed a little water in a corner. I called and a technician repaired a crack in the wall that was never part of the original problem. I am completely satisfied with their work and praise the employees that I have interacted with. I recommend them highly.

    We had four companies present their basement systems to us. We were very impressed with the videos from American Dry Basement Systems which explained and compared different systems. After meeting with Paul, we decided to go with American Dry Basement Systems. Juan and his crew were very hard workers. They covered all our storage in the basement and sealed off the entrance to the house to contain dust particles. They must have made hundreds of trips up and down the basement stairs, carrying supplies down and chunks of broken up concrete upstairs. They cleaned up when the job was done and Juan showed us the finished project and explained what was done. It hasnt rained yet for us to test out the sump pumps, but were confident that the new system will keep our basement dry in the future. We highly recommend them.

    We have had the installation of the American Dry Basement System in our home and so far it has been wonderful. It is constantly pumping so I guess we had a great deal of water coming into our home that the system is pumping out. They worked quickly, the use of the dampener system really did manage the dust but it didnt get all of it understandably. But I would recommend this company to anyone that is looking to get rid of moisture or water problems in their basements.

    The engineer who came to my home was very knowledgeable and thorough, explaining both what will be done and why. The crew came a week later and quickly installed the drain around the perimeter, applied a slurry to the walls and installed a top notch sump pump system. The basement was left spotless. For the first time in years, i had no water seeping through my cinder block walls or up through the concrete floor.Heavy rains are no longer something i dread. Did have an issue with my back up battery beeping. The fix could have been one of a few reasons. They were very responsive to my calls and after a few times, the problem was solved for good. Highly recommend using this company. They are very knowledgeable and easy to deal with.

Paul from American Dry Basement Systems visited my home, assessed the issue, explained why the original system failed, proposed what needed to be done to address my water issues, and completed the waterproofing job on budget (despite unanticipated extra time needed given the unexpected encounter with the extra fortification of my basement floor). Throughout the project, people at American Dry Basement were very responsive, professional, helpful and caring.

    The three man crew was very polite and efficient. They were extremely careful to minimize dust and debris by laying down protective cloths on the floors and covering all items in the basement with plastic. I was curious to see the waterproofing process and went down into the basement 2 or 3 times to check on the progress. The method shown on your YouTube video was exactly how my crack was being repaired, and the crew didnt seem to mind my curiousity. I would recommend American Dry Basement to any who is having water infiltration issues in their basement.I can only give 4 stars at this time... waiting for the first heavy rain.

    Our basement flooded for the first time ever (built the house 26 years ago). We had 4 inches of water covering the entire floor and had half a dozen companies give us their thoughts on fixing it. American Dry made the most sense with their professional recommendations and we know we made the right choice as our basement is completely dry now. The work was scheduled within a couple weeks and once they started, it was done in three days with their entire mess cleaned up. They hauled stone away in buckets rather than tear up our lawn with big machinery or a dumpster. The owner, Peter OShea, worked with us every step of the way to ensure our satisfaction. Please see our before and after photos!

    I noticed water in the corner of the basement after a heavy rain storm. There was also a large crack in the foundation wall. I called three different companies to take a look and was ultimately impressed with the technology and sales pitch by Steve with American Dry Basement Systems. Steve took the time to answer all of my questions and demonstrate how their system works. I ultimately decided to go with them for the installation of a dual sump pump, a perimeter drainage system, and the repair of the wall crack. I was also provided with references upon request, both of which were positive.Installation was scheduled about 3 weeks after my initial meeting. The crew was polite, professional, and took good care to keep my home clean during the installation. Installation took about a 1.5 days.Shortly after the installation, water re-appeared in the basement from the original crack that was repaired. Unfortunately, it took me over a month to get in touch with the service department to have someone come back out to make the repair. Each time I called the office to schedule service, I was transferred to voicemail, but it became an endless game of phone tag for several weeks. While ADBS would call back, I often missed the call due to meetings and they never left a message. Once I managed to connect with them, they scheduled the appointment within a week and the repair was made. Thankfully, I have not had any water in the basement since.The PumpSpy app immediately showed water being pumped in just the first week after installation, showing that the investment was worthwhile. One other point to note - the sump pump installed uses a legacy 3G cellular connection to upload data to PumpSpy. However, this technology is now discontinued by Verizon and will no longer be supported by the end of the year. As this change was brought on by Verizon and the sump pump supplier, ADBS did confirm that they would upgrade the sump pump to the new Wi-Fi communication module free of charge. I was very pleased to hear this news!Overall, good company and I would recommend, My original concerns of a flooding basement have dried up!

    Used American dry basement for a foundation repair. We had a sizable crack running from the top of the foundation down to the bottom.

  • Review 81 (2022-01-24 - Rating: 5)

    TLDR: Highly recommended for field stone homes.Fantastic waterproofing service! We have a field stone foundation and had about 4 inches of water leak into our basement from hydraulic pressure. We decided to get a quote and had 9 different companies come. However, all 9 were saying conflicting ways to resolve the problem. After extensive research online, I discovered that AmericanDry was THE ONLY company who gave us the proper recommendations. With field stone, you typically do not have a footer under your basement wall and digging to close to the foundation will disturb the soil that holds the wall straight. AmericanDry told me this during the first visit and even explained how they waterproof fieldstone basements by doing a step out to add the French drain (closer to the center of the room, but still hidden under cement - watch their videos on youtube for more info).Paul was our main contact, and let me say, he is the best contractor we have ever worked with! He understood our basement entirely and was able to teach me so much that I didnt realize I should have know. We had some red residue on the walls, which he explained was iron deposits from the soil. He was also able to show me where the water table was behind our walls. Because we had fieldstone walls, the mortar was being pushed out and crumbling onto the floor. I recognized this, but didnt understand it wasnt good for the walls. He also explained how older houses used to have terracotta draining tiles around them, but then they break down over time. I informed him I found some of that after landscaping the exterior of my home.He also checked for proper ground gradient outside, and that my gutter drains were properly away from my home. I also could not have exterior waterproofing done as each side yard is a driveway. The fact he looked for the simple things to help me is a testament to how trustworthy and caring he is. While he was over, I asked him every question I could think of, and I have extensively researched their product. This is the best product on the market!Last Ill point out - Paul was willing to work with us. He was able to work around our schedule, give us tips and pointers on what we can do to the basement (on every topic I asked), and even provide us with recommendations to research further topics online. He is very understanding. I highly recommend Paul!Please do not fall for Connecticut Basements. We almost did since their quote was lower, but they have yearly maintenance required and their systems fail constantly (neighbors and parents used them) - where American Dry has no maintenance.Additional Information if anyone cares from the research into their product I did. Their pipes have these black rings. I initially thought that this was a bad design because debris could get stuck in the rings. However, upon further research, it turns out that these are indeed self cleaning and the technology doesnt trap debris like I thought. The pipe has slits and not circle holes, so if anything was flowing through the water, it likely wouldnt fall into the tube (ie rocks, clumps of clay, etc).I also learned that they are various materials to make filter paper. However, water permeable materials are not as strong as non permeable materials and has a shelf life of ~20 years. but that is in ideal conditions. Usually its ~10 years in real world use. That is why AmericanDry does not use them. It is completely unnecessary.Also the placement of the drain next to the footer/dirt is excellent. It will alleviate the pressure on the walls.Their super slurry mix is genius. There is another product out there like it, but out of the 9 guys that came, not a single one mentioned it. For fieldstone, it can be used as a replacement for lime mortar. It will harden and get stronger with water to ensure the walls do not leak. It also makes new connections on the floor to the old concrete 1 piece and not 2 separate concrete pours. I believe this is called a cold joint if u google it.Not to mention- transferable lifetime guarantee.Highly recommend!

    The technician, Paul, showed up at our house right on time and quickly diagnosed the problems that were causing water to pool in our basement during rain storms. He explained the issues clearly and made sure I understood the best methods to resolve them, allowing me to take detailed notes.Furthermore, he was very honest in that not all of the problems could be fixed by American Dry as one of the primary issues could only be fixed by a mason/landscaper.I would highly recommend a visit from American Dry if you are seeing water/flooding in your basement as we would never have diagnosed this issue on our own and assumed it was an indoor, foundational problem rather than an outdoor problem with our drain pipes and retaining wall.

    Note: my husband wanted to rate this 4 stars, because we have had some minor issues, but I spend more time down there than he does, and I absolutely love it.Its been more than a decade since we had our basement done by ADBS, and its been one of the best investments weve made in our house. Prior to having it done, our basement was a disaster area every Spring, when a combination of melt and rain turned it into a fishing stream. We did have one problem a year after the original work was completed, but they sent out a crew a few days later to make some adjustments and we havent had a problem in the main basement, since. The pumps are still working perfectly. Weve replaced the batteries once and the rechargers once.The only real issue has to do with an alcove off of the main basement, which wasnt included in the work. Im not quite sure why it wasnt included (perhaps theres a code problem) but it continues to flood periodically and it is a bit damp down there. Otherwise, its been perfect.

The basement system designed by the owner of ADBS and installed by his incredible team have kept our basement dry even on days where we have gotten 3+ inches of rain AND during a full moon when the tides bring the river levels almost even with our house. The owner listened to all of our concerns and worked with us to design the best solution for our home, providing us peace of mind with the sump pump monitoring system and battery backup.

    After extreme winter, snow melted quickly in March causing high water table and water leakage in basement at multiple points. We had house ready to put on the market until the water situation changed this. ADBS did onsite assessment of basement and made recommendations. They helped me understand importance of their design/installation features (including concrete dust limitation), and offered transferable material and workmanship warranty to new house buyer that would last as long as they owned the home. This was peace of mind. ADBS recognized my need for an expedited schedule, and actually finished earlier than promised. The construction crew was punctual, hard working, always willing to answer questions, and did not need onsite supervision. They got the job done and washed down the basement floor when finished. It got pretty dirty during jackhammering/trenching/re-cementing. Attention to detail, excellent design, great warranty, and most of all a DRY BASEMENT following system installation is why I am willing to recommend ADBS to others with high confidence.--John Balint, Pittsfield, MA

However he learned I was handy when I told him I finished the basement myself. He suggested I rent the tools from home depot and buy the materials which would probably cost me around 200. He showed me how I would have to do it and explained that it wasnt that difficult to fix. I appreciate it because he could have came in looking to sell me something, anything to make some money.

    My Basement flooded 4x and I finally called American Dry Basement, they Immediately found the Issues/Problem and made me fully aware of the solution and their work began. 100% Dry basement, Honestly they do a Good Job, UNDERSTAND THEY DO NOT REPAIR BASEMENTS , THEY JUST CORRECT WATER ISSUES.

  • Review 99 (2019-01-19 - Rating: 5)

    This wasnt a planned job and the team made it much less painful. There was a sense of urgency and desire to ensure I understood and was comfortable with all details. I could not be home so they sent pics throughout the process. I picked American dry basements because of a friend referral and glad I did.

    They did a great job in a small room in my basement on diverting the water outside! I was totally amazed at how much water I actually had from underneath once they opened it! All dry and the pump works great!

  • Review 101 (2021-05-03 - Rating: 5)

    The crew were incredibly nice and personable. Worked almost non stop only breaking for lunch, and this is definitely not easy work. I would definitely recommend them if you need a basement water management system.

  • Review 102 (2015-06-27 - Rating: 5)

    The water table at my home is very high. My basement had chronic moisture problems, ADBS came in and worked wonders. And the lifetime guarantee is no joke. Pumps do eventually wear out, but mine have been replaced within 24 hours of making a call to ADBS. I can recommend ADBS without reservation.

  • Review 103 (2022-06-21 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 106 (2020-05-23 - Rating: 5)

    I had a basement wall crack repaired by ADBS. The team was very responsive to my questions and install team was very professional. Only time will tell how well the fix will hold but having done a similar process (epoxy injection) on the basement of a previous house in Illinois (not by ADBS), this seems to be the best method IMHO.

  • Review 121 (2024-04-14 - Rating: 5)

    We just had American Dry Basement install a waterproofing system in our basement. Weve had issues with water in our basement and needed a total solution so we can sleep at night and go away without worrying about flooding. Steve T from American Dry came to our house and presented us with what the solution will look like and thoroughly explained the entire process. He also answered all our questions and was always available to talk to. He is extremely knowledgeable and an excellent professional to work with. Then Wilson and his two-man crew came to do the work and they were all professional, extremely hard working and respectful of our home. They always started early and worked all day long to get the job completed. They wrapped up all items that were still exposed after we cleaned out most of our basement, used vacuums and filters to minimize all the dust and left our basement cleaner than it was before. We highly recommend American Dry Basement Systems and were so happy we chose them over the others we received estimates from. And their price was more than competitive for what we believe is a much better solution. Thank You, Kurt and Beth.

  • Review 152 (2022-01-15 - Rating: 5)

    We had some concerns about excess humidity and moisture in our unfinished basement, but luckily no obvious water issues. We also had questions about cracks in our basement foundation as well. The company scheduled Paul to come out within a few days. He was incredibly professional, explained everything and relieved our concerns. He recommended installing a waterproofing system if we decide to finish the basement in the future, but explained that we dont need one now. His honest assessment of the situation was very much appreciated. I can imagine other companies might try to sell us something that wasnt currently needed, so Pauls honesty was refreshing and reassuring. We will reach out to American Dry Basement in the future when we decide to finish the basement. Highly recommend!

    For the past decade my basement has been getting flooded mostly on heavy rainfalls. The past couple of years even small storms have caused a wet basement. I researched a number of companies and I felt that American Dry Basement Systems had the best approach so I had them give me a quote.Tina was very helpful in setting up an appointment and Paul Silva assessed my basement issue. Paul explained the entire process even though ADBS has many videos that show what they do to fix a wet basement.The crew did the work in two eight hour days to complete the project. Weve had 15 of rain from major storms over the past three weeks and I am thrilled to say that my basement is bone dry.Jeff - Bristol, CT
