Aqueduct Basement Waterproofing

I was very pleased with the work Aqueduct
Jan 10th, 2019

I have a home that is just shy of 100 years old. To say it has a basement makes it sound better than it was as it was more like an old time large cellar complete with a well-room behind an old wooden door. Since the day the house was built, it has flooded with the least provocation and the only drain in the middle had been totally clogged for at least 80 yrs. I know all of this because it's been my family's home and now I'm the last to be here. The venting of the furnace and air conditioning has been pulling all of this wet, nasty air up for too many years to count and has caused many health problems. The only plus was that there was no black mold, but wet and nasty was the name of the game. I knew something had to be done and I knew it had to be done right. I studied different company profiles for over a year and it's amazing how many very well known companies had way too many complaints for my taste. I'd seen the name Aqueduct and saw there was never a complaint and nothing but raves, but they were working out of Northern Va and I'm in Richmond. The year went by and another storm hit hard and I could wait no longer. Surprise! Aqueduct was now working in Richmond, too, and I was thrilled. They answered my request immediately, Bill DiStasio came to my house the next day, did a thorough investigation, explained everything to me and I have to say, I've never been so impressed in my life. Within 2 days, I had an estimate emailed to me, detailing every single thing. I grabbed up the next available date for work to begin and they were right on time. These 2 men, David Cje and his uncle, Roberto, are the hardest working men I have ever seen, and yet they still took the time to show me each and every thing they were doing. This was a huge, huge job, and myself, being almost 70 could not move the things in the basement for them to work. They did it for me with never a complaint, only genuine warmth, caring, and goodness. This kind of work they do to waterproof a basement is over the top hard work and it's by hand. I could hardly believe my eyes! They took exceptional care of everything, did fabulous work, and at the end left it cleaner than they found it. I now have a giant battery back- up sump pump, a huge dehumidifier and not one thing is in the way. It's now 24 hours since completion and another huge rain storm happened last night, and there is not even one drop of water anywhere. I'm thrilled, my house is thrilled, my lungs are thrilled, and you can bet that I will be recommending Aqueduct LLC to everyone for the rest of my days. Thank you, Bill; thank you, David and Roberto, and thank you Aqueduct for being the best of the best of companies! Jennifer Dickinson Richmond (Henrico), Va. An additional note: It is now Oct 2016, many rain storms for days later and not even one drop in my basement. Aqueduct is the only way to go. I noticed that the other reviewer only used a name of "A google user" and that makes me wonder if it was NOT a valid review, but rather the notes of a competitive company. Mine is authentic and I stand by my words.

I am a realtor and I work with my father who has been a realtor for over 30 years. We have recommended Aqueduct countless times to clients and friends. We also renovate homes and the first thing we do is have John put in a full waterproofing system. He is excellent to work with and we would never consider using anybody else. Not only is John great to work with, all of his crew members are very considerate and work extremely hard. It is rare to find an honest person in the waterproofing business but John breaks that mold. If you are considering having work done, call John at Aqueduct, you wont regret it.
