Second estimate and alternative

Considering 802 Waterproofing? Compare what is included.

A second estimate shows whether two scopes actually cover the same job: the exact drainage length, the sump and discharge work, wall treatment, restoration, maintenance, warranty and final installed price. We inspect the property and price the work in writing.

What this page is

An independent second estimate.

This page does not describe or rate 802 Waterproofing. It exists for one purpose: if you are comparing basement or foundation proposals in Greater Burlington, you can request a separate inspection here and read the two written scopes side by side.

Before choosing a contractor

What to compare in the proposal.

01

Where water is collected

The proposal should show where water enters the system — wall, cove joint, below slab — not just that a system is being installed.

02

The complete outlet route

Follow the water to its end point. Where does the discharge terminate, how far from the wall, and can it return?

03

Winter behaviour

How the line drains between cycles, and what happens when the outlet is buried in snow or frozen shut.

04

Equipment and maintenance

Pump models, backup capacity, alarms, service intervals, consumables and future maintenance costs.

05

Measured scope

Linear footage, pump count and pit construction — the quantities behind the number at the bottom.

06

Warranty and final price

Coverage, exclusions, transfer terms and which company stands behind the complete installed price.

802 Waterproofing comparison FAQs

Questions homeowners ask while comparing companies.

Services, coverage and contract terms come from the company providing your proposal.

Both proposals include a sump. How do I tell them apart?

Compare the pit, not the pump. Whether a new basin is being set, what drainage feeds it, the lift and run the pump was selected for, whether a dedicated circuit is included, and what backup and alarm come with it. Those differences are usually larger than the pump model.

What should a proposal say about the discharge line?

Where it terminates, how far from the foundation, how it drains between cycles and how it is protected in winter. In Burlington, City guidance also requires that sump discharge stay on your own property and not connect to the public sewer or reach the right of way.

Can I request another estimate after 802 Waterproofing has been to my home?

Yes. A homeowner can request an inspection and a written estimate from any company at any time, including after another proposal has been received. A separate inspection shows whether two scopes cover the same drainage, sump, structural, demolition, restoration and warranty work.

What does this page say about 802 Waterproofing?
