We purchased our house about 8 years ago. It had been empty for two years prior to our purchase. Fortunately the basement was empty and the floor was dry however there was a musty smell. There was no sump pump but the walls were dry. I connected with Kinetic Basement Solutions and they came over to inspect the basement. Kinetic Basement found that since the house was empty for two years, the gutter system was in disrepair and water was up next to the house when it rained. They found that the water had leached into the cinder block foundation and was leaking into the basement's french drain. They dug up the inside perimeter of the basement and replaced the french drain with a drainage system that connected to a sump pump that they installed. In addition they installed a moisture barrier on the walls of the basement and moved the gutter discharge away from the house. They also replaced the old basement windows with new double pane windows. RESULT'S They doubled the living space of our house because now the basement has no smell and is maintained at a lower humidity to prevent mold and mildew. Kinetic Basement has the DO IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME attitude and is focused on CUSTOMER SATISFACTION! |

The Kinetic team were a joy to work with. The team answered all questions and completed the project, with additional services, in the expected time frame. This included cleaning the entire basement. The office reached out and scheduled the additional services/providers required to complete the job. The finished basement looks great and we look forward to a water free basement. A special thank you goes out to the office staff who went above and beyond to keep us in the loop regarding the project. You would be hard pressed to find better customer service. Looking forward to their visit in the spring to complete another job!!! |

Attempts to repair a basement conduit pipe leak by two other vendors failed. Kinetic did the job under budget, neatly, and to date has completely held up. I would recommend them to anyone. |

This company was an absolute delight to work with. The phone correspondence with Nicole was absolutely exceptional. The absolute best customer service I've experienced. Greg came that very Friday evening, was very thorough in assessing our area of concern, and booked his team for repair of our crack in the foundation, that following Monday. The gentlemen that worked here on the repair were polite, respectful, courteous, organized, consistent. They cleaned up during and after work, and they explained everything before, during, then after the repair process. The product I received has a 25 year warranty and the work itself was very cost effective compared to other companies in the capital district. This company is VERY attentive to it's customers and their needs. I recommend Kinetic Basement Solutions to ALL who are in need. |

I am extremely happy with both the service and completion of the work done by Greg and his crew. I had a very complicated sump pump job that required a number of visits for the job to be completed 100%.They were timely with their appointments, kept the basement very clean .and completed the job to my satisfaction. I would highly recommend the company. |

Greg's initial response was very timely and his information was very clear and helpful regarding the sump pump. Greg's team was very hard-working,efficient and courteous. They stayed on the job until it was finished. At that time, they did a superb clean-up. I highly recommend this company. |

Imagine my surprise on Christmas day when, after 2 days of warm weather melting off 30” of fresh snow, discovering my sump pump wasn’t working! Visions of bailing water through the holiday weekend danced through my head. Sent an email to Kinetic Basement, fully expecting a Monday am response. But then, Christmas turned jolly again, when Kinetic called me Christmas night (!). What other business does THAT? The next day (Saturday), their tech replaced my pump and upgraded my Kinetic-installed French drain system (added 2nd backup pump and battery backup). Far exceeded my holiday weekend expectation! Kinetic has the best customer service!! |

If there can be anything good about finding out that you have major foundation issues just as you list your house to sell, it would certainly be meeting up with the folks at Kinetic Basement Solutions. While we were pretty traumatized by having to deal with this issue at a very inconvenient time, we knew we were in good hands after meeting with Greg. He outlined a number of options with varying costs that we could consider to remedy our issues. He is very knowledgeable and helpful, and every one of his employees who came to our house was the same way. They were hard-working, neat, pleasant and punctual. We always felt comfortable having them working in our house and confident that they were doing a great job. Another wonderful aspect of this company is Nicole, who makes all the arrangements. She called or texted every day to let us know when the guys were coming to the house, which made it very convenient. Her friendly and helpful personality made a stressful situation much easier. Did I mention that they were able to fast track our project so we could get it on the market more quickly? It was a true pleasure to deal with such professionals! |

Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness Great experience from start to finish. We used them for a quote on basement work needed while we were purchasing our home. Several months later we scheduled them to come back and do the work. Very transparent pricing and they explained all the steps of the repair. They have a kind and responsive office staff who helped schedule and process payments. I feel secure knowing that there is a 25 year warranty included with the work. |

Greg and the guys did a good job. My system was installed in 2013 and still going. No water issues at all. I do need to get in touch with them for a maintenance call so i can comment back on that but this will be the first time in doing so. Overall, go for it. It’s definitely worth the money. Thanks guys. |

Did a nice job on a difficult basement project for a reasonable price. Basement is now dry and when we had a problem with a dehumidifier they made it back and replaced it under warrantee, double-checked all pumps and made sure things were perfect. |

Greg and his employees did an excellent job of installing window wells, removing 6 overgrown shrubs, landscaping, planting, and reseeding lawn. Also, a drain was installed underground to prevent seepage into foundation. Each visit resulted in superb cleanup. Very experienced and conscientious company. Before and after pictures. |

Owners are honest guys who really care about their customers. I had a chance to meet the owners on several occasions. I found them to be committed to the health of the home and solving basement issues permanently. Great guys who have deep seeded roots in their community. Hire these guys, you can’t go wrong and you’ll be glad you did! |

Copied and pasted from original review on Kinetic's homepage: Greg and his team have done two separate projects for me in the past year and a half. Both times they were EXTREMELY conscious of their cleanliness and professionalism when it came to the care of our home. I've worked with other companies before with various projects done in a few different houses and by far Kinetic is the best. The scope of work was explained fully, with multiple different options depending on our goals, and communication was open throughout the process. Even when the timetables shifted due to weather or personnel shortages I was kept in the loop daily as to what work would be completed for that day and when we could expect the project to wrap. I had 2 sump pumps, french drain, vapor barrier, egress window, exterior regrading, and a dehumidifier installed and each day the house was clean as a whistle when the crew left. I would recommend Kinetic to anyone looking to have work done. |

I recently had some water issues in my basement, Greg and his crew did a fantastic job not only solving the problem but getting the work done in a timely manor. Kinetic basement was very professional and not pushy at all, which was a huge relief. Pricing was fair and the work completed was done extremely well. If you have any water issue’s please don’t waste your time calling anyone else. -Kevin F. |

Great company to work with. They found the package/system that was best for my basement. I’ve had many compliments after it was done. Many people cannot believe the transformation. I have a dry basement finally!!! And it’s been almost 4 years since the work was done. |

Amazing job by these guys. By far the best waterproofing product on the market. A closed back system with access ports to flush out the drainage track. A solid experience from start to finish. Keep up the great work! |

Jason did a great job of explaining his products and determining what would and would not be useful for the issues I wanted to address. Trustworthy, knowledgeable, friendly, and most important he listens to your concerns & is sure to address them. His estimate was very competitive and the finished work exceeded my expectations. |

I contacted Kinetic Basement through a referral I was given. The initial meeting with Greg and the way he explained the process gave me the confidence to know I was making the right decision to go with Kinetic. My basement was wet, moldy and had clear water damage over the years. The job itself was pretty major, but still they got the job done in 7 quick working days. They were always on time, thorough and cleaned up any messes that were made along the way. I used to call my basement "The Dungeon" and now, SO much better. The transformation has been like night and day! Thank you very much for everything!! |

Greg and Jason, I just posted this review on nextdoor.com: We have a VanPatten Executive Ranch built in 1970. At that time, I installed two sump pumps to deal with water issues. Although the pumps and their replacements have worked over the years, there were several issues. First, the sump holes are far from being attractive. Second, the plumbing is a kludge and not up to code. And, there was no backup in case of power failure.I investigated several contractors and decided to go with Kinetic Basement Solutions. This is the best investment I have made in years. Greg and Jason are the co-owners. Greg gave an estimate to replace my two sumps and encapsulate my dirt floored crawlspace. The price was great so I signed a contract. Greg scheduled a start date. Although the start date was delayed, Greg kept me informed of updates. Once the job started he checked in frequently via phone to inform me of schedule changes and work progress. Jason also stopped by often to check progress. The staff worked hard every day and left the basement and garage clean. The crew consisted of a senior guy with two to three helpers. The finished products are outstanding. Each sump has room for two pumps. This is for future room for a backup pump. Each pump has a battery backup. The sumps drain into catch basins in my back yard. The encapsulated crawlspace is clean and bright. Greg is passionate about his product and company. The work was outstanding and the installation team was professional. |

We decided on Kinetic Basements because of the system they provided. Any house that needs to a water system in their house should only have the Grate Drain system installed. In addition to a superior product their team was nothing but top notch, they even found our walls bowing andthey were able to quickly add the work to the project to secure the wall. They were courteous and the work was phenomenal, we couldn’t be happier with our new system and our dry basement, which also included a moisture barrier in the basement and in the crawl space (which provides us with a ton of space for storage). Again, I cannot say enough good things, there team even helped remove some furniture from the basement, I would highly recommend them for any basement project! |

After coming to my wits end in dealing with a flooded basement whenever there was heavy rain or a spring thaw, I decided it was time to obtain quotes from basement contractors to install a perimeter drainage system. Among those I contacted, Kinetic Basement Solutions stood out as being very knowledgeable, extremely professional, and committed to ensuring I had a very positive experience. When it came time to do the work they arrived on time, were extremely neat and made certain the job was done right while explaining every part of the process. I’m happy to say I no longer worry about having a wet basement and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kinetic Basement Solutions to anyone who is in a similar situation I once was in. Josh |

HI Nicole, My home had a chronic damp and moldy cellar, so I called both Kinetic Basements and their main competition. Jason from KB returned my call quickly, came over and thoroughly explained his solution and the price. We agreed on a date. I have never regretted hiring Kinetic Basements to fix my moisture problem. Their guaranteed solution has worked perfectly for years now and the de-humidifier Jason recommended I buy works great. |
