Satisfied Customer Reviews

KC Waterproofing did a great job installing a new sump pump and other water mitigation items. Friendly crew, arrived each day as planned and finished in just 2.5 days!
A sump pump was installed very quickly.
Gerry and Davan were excellent. They protected the house and basement from extra dust and just going in and out to get the tools.
Digging up the yard to install the pipe...they replaced the sod and cleared the extra yard waste. Also they were very friendly with our dog.
Mario was great. Very upfront about any issues and possibilities to move forward. Would call again. Thanks!
Very happy with the work KC Waterproofing did for us. Jessie and Melvin were very efficient, courteous, and happy to answer any questions we had. The repair was very thorough and we feel relieved this will address the foundation issues we had.
Mario was my tech. Thorough and answered all questions without hesitation.
Mario was super friendly and professional. The job was done quickly. We are very happy with the work and have peace of mind with the warranty provided.
We recently had foundation repairs with multiple piers and poly-fill. Not only were they professional on-site, but one of the employees even noticed a package sitting outside starting to get rained on so they placed it in my mudroom. They kept me informed through the process and ensured I understood each repair prior to commencing.
Mario is the best guy they have. Thank you for hearing my concerns and addressing the issue. Appreciate your professionalism.
Great crew (Schylur and Marvin). Very customer focused.
KC Waterproofing and Foundation Repair did an excellent job on my sump pump installation and crack repairs. Gary and Davan were not only skilled but genuinely thoughtful throughout the process. We had a bit of miscommunication early on, and instead of brushing it off, they listened carefully, acknowledged what happened, and adjusted their plan so everything aligned with what I needed.

They brought me in at every step—showing me options for the pump location, explaining the exit pipe decisions, and making sure I felt confident about the work being done. Their friendliness and respect made a stressful home repair feel manageable.

I’m grateful for their care and would absolutely recommend them.
