homeowner already hired a moron who told her they’d solve her problems by digging a shallow EXT trench n toss drain tile and a lil gravel in it along the side of her house out to front, and back. THEN, after that didn’t do squat she called a few others including my ugly balding azz, one of the others told her for $4,000 they would solve her problem/leaks by putting in 2 exterior sump pumps and another drainage ditch loololollllllll, 3—short videos…
INSIDE basement----
OUTSIDE view----
to show homeowner whether she needs EXT waterproofing of the chimney walls i ran water test with a hose… 5 minutes or less later here were results lolol
did any other company/contractor who came out to give her estimate take the time n run a water test? No. Anyone else bring their state waterproofing Lic and Ins to show her? No.
at this point in time, she is getting water in 3 areas so you can just fix those areas, again NOT leaking anywhere else n she’s been there 30 years. MIGHT she leak somewhere else in the futre? Sure, hell yeah, possible, heLLLLLLLLLLLo? If any rod holes deteriorate they can alow water in, then… if she has OTHER cracks behind drywall/paneling in OTHER areas then those areas may indeed leak in future or if openings occur around, under other basement windows, doors n so on she, like all other homeowners can get water in basement in future. She may need to hire someone else to do some minor tuckpointing etc to chimney above grade
Had she opted for an INT basement drainage system and sump pump it would have cost MORE $, it would NOT have ‘stopped’ the water from where its actually entering as they would have attached some vinyl crap or dimpled membrane etc on inside F walls and let the water continue to come in n direct it, divert it to a sump,that’s not ‘waterproofing’ n if one doesn’t STOP the water source/problem you’ll never stop/prevent a mold headache, follA ?
est to her was $2,375… a one day job, 20 yr guarantee on ‘all waterproofed areas’, not on anything else beccccuase, i didn’t waterproof anything else nor am i charging her for anything else.
Lemmmmmmmmmmme see, $2,375 to STOP the water from entering OR, $4,000 or more for 2 sump pumps or an INT system that will not stop the water from entering… you’d have to be a complete fool to follow the advice/recommendations of the scammers but, yep, quite a few still do = LA LA land.
