DryMax Waterproofing Inc. reviews (49)

Basement water leak in one area. A downspout broke and the water from the rain filterred into the basement. Vasyl provided an honest estimate and solution. The new downspout was installed plus, his crew sealed the cracks in between the brick veneer. I am satisfied with the project and recommends his professionalism to anybody. o

I had tree roots blocking the main drain and reversing drainage. Over the phone itself Vasyl clearly understood the problem compared to other contractors I talked. He did a camera inspection and provided no obligation quote. It was old clay pipe and he recommended to replace with new pvc pipe for affected 20 foot. He had taken care of everything including City approval, inspection and work was done very well. The ares was tidy and clean after the work. Vasyl is well recommended professional contractor can easily work with.

Water leak in several areas of my basement . This was an upsetting situation as the basement was in the midst of renovations . Vasyl/ Dry Max responded quickly , took time to assess the situation, explained in detail what the possibilities were to correct the problem . Luckily my contractor was available at the time and agreed fully with the plan . DryMax crew came the next day ; Vasyl came at the same time , made introductions, left and returned after the work had been done . A sump pump was installed as was my choice in a possible 2 part plan , the area was protected well with plastic , the work was totally neat and clean with obvious care to attention . The pump worked perfectly and all the areas were dry in a couple of days . I was very relieved that this solved the problem . My contractor was very pleased with the job done . I will definitely use DRY MAX again if I have any further problems . Vasyl was great as was the crew . I feel very confident that I can contact Vasyl should I have

Vasyl was great - extremely accomodating and did the job on time and took payment once done. Would definitely recommend.

Vasyl did a great job fixing a basement wall crack. He was very honest and very professional all throughout the process. He even added underground drain just below the crack that he fixed for that extra peace of mind in case water starts leaking back in the long-term future. Its pretty much a permanent solution he provided. He thoroughly cleans up, which I truly appreciate. Highly recommended! Eric (Mississauga)

I appreciate an honest, hard working crew. Vasyl is a true professional. He did not try to sell me on anything. He told me what needed to be done and he won my trust while doing it, with excellent workmanship. His crew was clean, considerate, and knowledgeable. I asked many questions. They took their time to show me what they were doing and explained everything. They even gave me advice on other plumbing issues in my home for free. This was my first big plumbing job and I had an excellent experience.

They were not the lowest proposal, but hiring DryMax was absolutely the right thing to do! We faced unexpected issues, but Vasyl and his team managed to resolve them all in a quick and highly professional manner. The construction site was clean and well maintained. They did everything as promised. I'm a very happy customer!

Had a great experience with this service! We had a leak under our kitchen sink through a crack in the pipe. The plumber was incredibly punctual and professional, he efficiently resolved the issue replacing a portion of the pipe and future proofing by elevating the pipeline for better future drainage, and leaving the area clean! Was impressed with the service, price, and transparency. Attached photos of before and after!

We bought an older home that had water leaking into the basement. I'm so glad our agent recommended Vasyl and his team! Vasyl was able to meet with us immediately, discuss the problem and solution in detail and provide us with a reasonable quote. He is extremely detailed and knowledgeable and that in turn gave us peace of mind. Vasyl and team arrived on site early and had already completed most of the work on the first day. When he'd discovered we would require a sump pump, Vasyl took the time to answer all of our questions and explain in detail how they would go about installing it. They completed the work quickly and efficiently, even going the extra mile of completely replacing foundation blocks that had deteriorated. We now have the confidence that our foundation is secure and that our basement will be protected. The team also took such good care of our basement and the exterior of our home. End to end from quotation to completion, Vasyl was the best contractor we have ever worked with!!!

I contacted Vasyl at DryMaxWaterproofing alongside other GTA waterproofers for a through HomeStars for a quote on this project. - a front garden area 12 ft x 7~8 ft deep excavation - Hydraulic Cement patching of any foundation/mortar cracks present - Liquid-applied product like Aqua Bloc designed for Exterior foundation waterproofing, as this is a garden area and near eave runoff. -Install of Waterproofing membrane, DMX dimpled sheets with specialty anchors, or similar with flashing to prevent runoff from pouring between the membrane foundation. - PVC pipe with drainsock + crushed gravel at bottom to redirect runoff - refill after work completed -After negative past experience with contractors with lapsed business credentials, I always check opengov for the business or trade and check to make sure their certifications and credentials are listed and the owner's name and business address is accurate. Vasyl's company DryMax Waterproofing Inc. had everything clearly listed, instilling confidence that his company would be around in the future if the warranty was ever needed. DryMax Waterproofing's quote and delivered work was significantly better than expected: -Vasyl and his team were the only Contractor among four others I contacted who provided detailed quotes which described their process and materials to be used. -Vasyl's exterior waterproofing involved a liquid-type waterproofing material as requested, but went further with reinforced mesh applied before the DMX-style membrane was added along with a flashing on top. I didn't get a photo of this step, but it's a step I'll insist on for any further foundation waterproofing I do having seen it applied. -DryMax also provided in their quote priced conditional add-ons which helped avoid unnecessary surprises: If certain required drainage connections were available after digging outside, it was the base price, vs. If the connection needed to be made inside, a specific add on price was listed in the quote. -Vasyl handled the call for locates and provided the order # so we could confirm that the utilities were notified and were able to check the excavation area for buried pipes, wires, etc. -After arranging a dig time, his crew came on a Saturday morning and were finished by the afternoon. They properly protected the lawn from the excavated soil, and replaced the bushes afterwards. Vasyl was on site for the work conducted by his team. At times, he got down into the work area and did things himself. We appreciated that he wasn't a contractor who ran more concurrent operations than he could effectively supervise. From my discussions with him on site and afterwards, I appreciate that he is a very detail and quality focused contractor - a rarity in this industry. While Vasyl's work was higher priced than the lowest quotes we received - those companies wanted to dig a shorter trench and did not offer any kind of liquid-waterproofing/mesh or hydraulic cement patching, making his quoted price good value. I'd happily recommend Vasyl's waterproofing work to others in the future. Update: I didn't realize my review was stuck in moderation for 6 months. Waterproofing is still holding up well!
