We knew we had water drainage issues, but we didn't know where start or what to do about them. Gus demonstrated expert skill in quickly identifying the problems around our house. He also gave us clear steps for mitigation including the priority in which they should be addressed. We highly recommend his services.

I live in Omaha NE. and experienced water intrusion into my basement the winter of 2019. Someone referred Gus...The Leak Detective to me so I set up an appointment with him. He spent about 3 hours at my property, examining the problem, interior and exterior, and then we talked through all of the issues that he identified that caused the water intrusion problem and recommended mitigation efforts for each one. He then sent me a very detailed report so that I could reference it after the fact and continue to work on fixing all of the problems. Gus was very kind, very thorough, super knowledgeable about how water gets into a basement, and even texted with me after the fact when I had questions. I implemented almost all of the recommended mitigation efforts and I haven't had one issue with water interaction since! Gus, the leak detective, is an absolute go to if you are experiencing any type of water intrusion into a home!

Gus has a very unique and insightful approach on how to help people deal and figure out issues as it relates to water and leaks with in and around their house.Our basement was flooded completely a few years back and wish I would have been able to visit with Gus when this occurred. Given his background as an engineer and architect, he is incredibly insightful in how water flows. I would trust him in a minute with any issue I would ever have with my house. Gus is just a great guy to work with!

Gus at the Leak Detective was beyond expectational to work with. He is very knowledgeable and goes above and beyond to find the root of the problem all while keeping you, the customer, informed of the process. His observations and analysis are detailed and provide a lot of background when determining a cause for an issue. As mentioned before, he will not steer you into making an unnecessary fix. If you ever find yourself with a water intrusion issue and you have no idea where to start, I would highly recommend giving Gus a call first.

Call The Leak Detective, you will be SO GLAD you did! This was the best thing we have ever done for our home of two years. Gus gave us a detailed plan for grading the soil around our house so water can drain away from the house where it is supposed to go. We liked learning about our yard and house from Gus--now that we have that invaluable information, we will be able to maintain our home on our own from here on out. We highly recommend this service! THANK YOU!
