Testimonials
“Highly recommend. Both Matt & Eddie were very responsive during our entire project which spanned a couple of days and was time sensitive. They got it all done before we left for vacation and the communication between us was done with utmost professionalism. The crew were on time (early in fact) and did an outstanding job. Very neat and made the work look like it was always there. Thank you so much to everyone involved with our project. So very grateful and appreciative.“

“I hired Matt and his crew for my basement foundation waterproofing. The water started around January and became a real problem during rainfall so I needed to address it but wanted to make the right decision. I took my time, saw about 6 different water proofing companies from February – April, but in the end chose EM Waterproofing because if they’re obvious years experience, fair pricing, no nonsense approach and experienced crew. Some of them with this company for decades. The work took two days. They were clean efficient, polite, and very experienced as anyone can see. Matt was amazing as far as explaining everything, communicating when I needed to, addresses all my concerns as they came up and got the job done right. Including putting the grounds back to look very much pleasing. I am very happy and satisfied with my choice and the work done. would highly recommend them to anyone. Definitely have to be careful out there when choosing a waterproofing contractor, that’s why I took the time to write this review.“

“Great work, easy to communicate with and the only company to not make unnecessary suggestions/extra work we didn’t need. They confirmed appointment the day before, were on time and asked questions and kept me appraised to progress until work was done. Even though a good chunk of our yard adjacent to the house was dug up fir waterproofing the basement, they put plants, dirt and brick path back in place and everything looks good as new.“

“I wanted to update my review about six weeks later. I am still so happy with the job E & M Waterproofing did on our home. It’s been snowing, raining, and melting. I’m so glad we are still dry. I am happy we did not go with the company that viewed me only as dollar signs and wanted to go with a nuclear solution like a French drain that would have let water flow into my basement and be pumped out. It may not have even worked, and I would have to replace all tile/drywall in my basement.
Eddie suggested the problem be tackled from the outside rather than the inside.
Eddie from E & M waterproofing is the owner. He is so straightforward, calm, cool, and collected. He has been in business since 1979!
I even liked his name, Ed, like my dad and brother. It was like talking to my dad about a home problem. He even gave me some ideas on extending the sprinkler system covers and grading dirt a bit away from the home to help with drainage. (I never would have even thought to do this.)”

“Highly recommend E&M for waterproofing needs. They are the best around. Very responsive and quick service.“
– Gabe C., Stamford, United States
“Eddie came early this morning on a recommendation. He wasn’t trying to up-sell us anything or talk us in to any overkill remedies for our basement.
Was completely straight and told us that the basement is fine, to do some grading of the dirt outside and tweaks on the gutters. Said he doesn’t want to waste our money on something we don’t need.
A real class act!”

“i am a tough critic and normally visibly and verbally dissatisfied with customer service and experience. E&M Waterproofing is the exception. Ed is fabulous and their work is top notch. After doing some work for us months ago we had what we thought was a problem with flooding. turns out it was not flooding. Ed was here in 15 minutes to diagnose the situation, find the problem, (faulty de-humidifier) and leave happily without any charge. He is the best!!!“
– Mark H., Manhasset, United States
“Several high end contractors had looked at our problem and misdiagnosed the source of the water, costing and wasting more than $1000. Eddie from E&M, identified the source immediately. What I thought would cost more than $5K, wound up costing half that. His men were here here on time, did the work, cleaned up thoroughly and were gone. I think this is a topnotch outfit and am happy to recommend them strongly. My house is in Brooklyn.“
– Peter K., Brooklyn, United States
“I couldn’t be more pleased with Eddie and crew. Honest, timely, neat and professional. And NO MORE WATER in the basement. He knew the problem immediately and fixed it once and for all!
Don’t waste your time with anyone else!”
– Toni C., San Francisco, United States
“This company was super fast in returning my call, spoke with Eddie, who was super honest and knowledgeable. Saved me from costly and unnecessary repairs. I would highly recommend them.“
– Matthew F., New York, United States
“I had a crack repaired earlier this morning by E&M waterproofing. They were punctual, professional and Eddie even showed up to the job site which I appreciated. If I ever decide to fully finish my basement…there is no doubt that I would call them.
Their prices are fair ( even got a second quote ) and come with a 10 year warranty…at least for my service.
I try to leave positive and negative reviews on Yelp to help my neighbors….E&M is good to go IMO.”
