Umbrella Waterproofing, Drains And Plumbing Solutions

Vlad and his team helped us immensely – not only they diagnosed the source of the problem correctly but they tackled the issue effectively and on time. I have interviewed many companies and found that umbrella lived up to its promises and to many great reviews on homestars. Their work was immaculate and a definite 10 out of 10. When Vlad came to do the moisture diagnostic during the free estimate he pointed out the issues in the foundation. We were doing renovations and the existing drywall had to go; upon exposing the walls I indeed saw the cracks and the signs of effervescence that Vlad has predicted would be the cause of the damp carpet near that wall. My husband called umbrella at once and we’ve arranged the time for exterior waterproofing. Dealing with umbrella’s team was a breeze and nothing but pleasure. I would highly recommend them

Umbrella was our pick when interviewing top waterproofing contractors in Richmond Hill for exterior waterproofing project. The initial meeting during free estimate with Vlad was a blast – he did a superb job diagnosing the problem and offering detailed solution. Not only were they quick, tidy and professional, but their prices were reasonable and timing was great. Not to mention they are highly reputable and recommended on homestars. Waterproofing process went smoothly. We have been taken care of by umbrella waterproofing very well. Thank you for your quality work and for being patient with us.

We had problems with backed up drain and needed an inspection asap. Close friend gave us Umbrella’s number highly recommending them. Their technician came on a short notice and after the camera inspection of the main sewer line it was evident that roots penetrated and damaged the system. We wanted Umbrella to fix the problem. We had a good feeling about them from the get-go - from the first conversation with their office on the phone – and onward. Proposed repair costs were fair; and their receptionist accommodated my husband’s and my busy schedules wonderfully. The job consisted of repairs and installation, requiring excavation and replacement of damaged clay pipes and damaged cleanout section, and provision of new double clean outs. They outlined the steps of the job in detail leaving no room for questions. Before work was done our property was protected with tarps and upon completion of exceptionally well done job everything was cleaned and very tidy. The results were so neat it was hard to tell that something was dug up on our property- very professional! My husband & I are very pleased with this contractor and are looking into having them waterproof a section of our basement too. Thanks guys for flawless workmanship and flawless attitude. Becca

I had issues with water seeping into my finished basement floor and called several waterproofing companies to inspect and provide estimates for possible repair. I liked that Umbrella Waterproofing followed up immediately when I first called about an appointment. I liked that Vlad, co-owner, called to advise when to expect him. Vlad assessed the situation and quickly went to work showing what may have caused the problem. He only charged me for the use of a camera to go through the pipes. I expected to be told they would have to make some major repairs. Instead he told me that the problem was minor and made simple suggestions for fixing the problem. I found him to be quite thorough. For example, as he made his investigation, he would tell me in passing that he was going to check the moisture level in the basement after he finished his investigation. We went outside the house, found the problem, and told me what needed to be done. I thought that was the end and I had forgotten about the moisture check but he did not.

Vlad cleaned up any mess made. More importantly, he volunteered to fix a small problem at no additional charge when he happened to be in my area again. His assistant, Vedania, followed up with me to ensure that the minor work would be completed and they did it so professionally as if it was a major job. Umbrella was the first company to check my basement. I cancelled all the other waterproofing companies I had made appointments with. I am not going anywhere else should a need arise again. I recommend Umbrella Waterproofing not only for their know-how and professionalism but also for going above and beyond the work required.

There are reasons why Vlad and his crew earn so many 10/10 reviews. Work was done as promised, excellent and courteous workers, and terrific clean-up at the end of the job. Their price was very fair given the exceptional quality of their work and the peace of mind this gives. I would absolutely hire them again!

very thorough estimate from Vlad. His trustworthiness and knowledge were clear from the start, plus his quote for the work couldn't be beat.
The crew did the work to install the weeping tile on the inside of our house in the basement quickly, to a high degree of quality, and cleaned up thoroughly.
We already had a big rain, and no the weeping tile is working. Thanks guys.

We contacted Umbrella, because of the reviews and when Vlad arrived, he did a complete inspection and moisture test of our basement. He was honest and told us he found no reason for waterproofing. He did give us a quote that was reasonable and explained the waterproofing steps anyway. Great guy, friendly, informative and honest. Would highly recommend them.

We got 4 seperate quotes for waterproofing our basement from companies that rate highly on Homestars. We went with Umbrella because their price was good but, more importantly, they took the time to explain everything so clearly. Vlad was happy to answer many, many questions for us and provided us with a very detailed estimate. All work was completed on time, the crew were respectful and efficient, the clean up was thorough and Vlad's follow up support has been great. From our experience i have no hesitation recommending this company to other homeowners.
