Verified record
Dynamite Waterproofing & Masonry is a family owner-operated contractor in Boston, self-reporting over two decades of experience, offering masonry, foundation repair, and basement waterproofing. The review record from late 2024 through 2025 is largely positive, with technician Jack named repeatedly for basement leak repairs, a fieldstone foundation repair that stabilized crumbling mortar between blocks over three days of work, chimney inspections and repairs, and masonry projects including walkway and patio leak repairs. Reviewers frequently cite prompt arrival, clear communication, and fair pricing. Worth asking about before booking: four short reviews from August 2025 describe poor or incompetent work without further detail, standing out against the otherwise near-unanimous positive record from the same period — worth asking directly about any recent service issues. For Boston-area homeowners dealing with a leaking foundation, wet basement, or masonry repair, the volume of detailed positive accounts naming a specific technician is a reasonable signal, tempered by that August 2025 cluster.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Dynamite waterproofing and masonry. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
Not sure which you need? Start with an inspection — many reputable companies assess free, and independent assessments run up to $500.
The wall run getting the drain — a full 30×40 ft basement is about 140 ft.
