“I needed waterproofing done in my basement and the sump pump drain moved away from the house and into the yard. Eddie and his guys came out and got the job done in one day! They were great to work with-very professional and efficient! I highly recommend them for whatever your needs are. I am very happy with the finished product and would definitely use them again!”
BARBARA B.
“I received a very fair estimate from Ed for waterproofing my basement, and the very next week work began, with incredibly hardworking teams extending burying my home’s downspouts, and installing an exterior French drain to tie in with the underground system and carry the water far from my foundation. A few days later, a larger crew began the major work in my basement to install another French drain system there, with a sump pump to move that water out! They also did some joist repair to finish off the job. Communication was easy and prompt, which was very important to me on a project of this size. I anticipate using Kentuckiana Contracting Services for home repairs in the future.”
