I'm extremely pleased with all facets of this installation.  Mike handled the initial survey and quote and arrived promptly on schedule.  We discovered that the foundation drain had failed and allowed water to remain trapped along that wall, which caused the problem to recur during persistent heavy rain.  We discussed several options I had considered, and he explained the Aqua-Guard system, the complete installation process, thoroughly answered all of my questions, and left me with a written estimate, along with additional material to review at my leisure.  His approach made more sense than the competition, was very competitive price-wise, and included a warranty that was far superior to the competition, so I chose Aqua-Guard and we set an installation date several weeks into the future.

The office called in advance to confirm the installation date.  Brandon and his crew showed up exactly on schedule to begin the installation.  Brandon again explained the system and answered all questions, then the crew began work.  The crew was quick, efficient, and the workmanship was outstanding.  They initially estimated that the job would take a complete day, but they were able to complete their work in approximately 6 hours.  Later that afternoon, Brandon arrived precisely at the agreed-upon time and performed a final inspection and handled any final questions before receiving payment. 

I could not have imagined a more positive experience.  Aqua-Guard precisely met every scheduled appointment, the quality of their work was outstanding, they were courteous and professional in their behavior, and the cost was below the average of the firms I consulted and precisely in line with the initial estimate..  They completed the job ahead of schedule and left the work area cleaner than they found it.  I can't think of a single thing they could have done to make the experience any better.  Aqua-Guard has my highest recommendation!

"Olympus Landscape & Perfections just completed installing 3 French drains, laying 2 pallets of Emerald zoysia, putting down a border around an area with river pebbles in our back yard. They did a good job and I was extremely impressed with their hard work ethics and desire to make us happy with the job."

As you can see from the above problem I had done everything imaginable to stop the humidity in the home..This crawl Space problem is everywhere.  People dont realize there is a solution to this problem.  I even placed 5 damp rid bags throughout the home and had 2 Trane A/C put in.  The A/C is only good for pulling out a certain amount of humidity and ours was doing all it could.
So in summary this is what I had done to stop the humidity.  1) placed 6 ml poly from end to end of crawl space 2) purchased dehumidifer to pull water out 3) purchased 2 new Trane A/C and 4) placed damp rid bags throughout the home.
None of this worked...I was gone for a week and the smell upon entering the home was stunning.  Metal was rusting and meldew was forming on cabnits.  Something had to be done...I called my Trane A/C manager and he told me I had to seal the home.

 I called AFC and they came out within the next week.  They measured the complete crawl space and recommended placing 20 ml poly not only from end to end of the crawl space but up the walls and around any wires pipes or anything else that could bring in water or outside air.  They have run this plastic up the wall and completely sealed the entire crawl space.  They also put drainage pipes under the plastic to pull any water that might  seeping in.  There is also a large dehumidifer that runs directly to the sump pump along with the drainage pipes form directly to this sump pump...the sump pump then drains any fluid directly out of the crawl space...
What do we have now...one week later my in house dehumidifier is running at 40% humidity and I dont even empty this every day.  The damp rid bags are now empty.  This happened by the second day.  You will be shocked how well these people do their job.
$11,000 is a lot of money.  But there is no one better.  The job is done right the first time.  I didnt want to spend this amount of money and then it still not work...the crew came out completely cleaned out the crawl space and carried it off both days...this is a 2 day operation.  You never see the crew.  When you do they are polite and professional.  They are under your home sealing up the crawl space..they got here by 8:30 and didnt leave till 7p.  The salesman in the beginning will give you a catalogue that will completely show you what your crawl space looks like and what and reason you are experiencing this probem.  If nothing else get this catalogue.  Read it thourghly and you will see this is no gimmic.  These people call several times the next week to insure you are happy with the work...The saleman is not pushy...This is completely up to you..
As you can see I did evrything that is possible to stop the moisture in my home.  There is no short cut and you cant do this yourself..they have been doing this for over 20 years.
If you want the job done right.  If you want to stop the smell and humidity in your home call AFS.  You will not be disappointed.  This humidity can also cause illness, mold and meldew...STOP it today..call AFS...
I am 100% satisfied with the professional manner everyone at AFS showed...They make sure you are 100% satisfied with the job they do for you...

French Drains questions, answered by experts

Simple blockages can be cleared using household plungers or manual snakes, provided no severe plumbing issues exist.

The best drain cleaners are biodegradable ones or a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. Strong, caustic chemicals may seem appealing with promises of unclogging your drain quickly, but liquid drain cleaners can cause damage to your pipes over time. Consider making your own drain cleaner with baking soda and vinegar.

Air gaps get clogged by a few different means. Over time, food and grime can collect in the air gap, leading to a blockage. Mineral deposits from hard water are a common problem. Mineral buildup creates a film in the air gap and tubing, which can cause flow issues, as well as attract debris. Homeowners with hard water may want to remove mineral deposits regularly to keep the air gap clean and clear.

French drains may fail when they become clogged with soil granules that slip through the pores of the landscaping fabric and through the holes in the pipe. 

Over time, this debris can build up inside the pipe and prevent water flow. To prevent this failure from happening, regularly flush out your French drain and keep debris away from the inlet grate.

That pungent rotten egg smell coming from your drain is likely the buildup of biofilm—hair, skin, and soap scum that turns into a black sticky mess. In this case, pouring down near-boiling water, baking soda, and white vinegar will remove the smell. Keep in mind that a rotten egg smell is occasionally a sign of larger sewage line clogs and other related issues.
