"Extensive work beneath subfloor required. Peter and Oleg were very responsive and accommodating to our schedule. They worked later than normal to complete the job in one visit. Could not have asked for better service or more friendly, courteous, professionals."

"Excellent service and would definately recommend to anyone needing plumbing services. The filter housing on my water softner cracked and flooded our garage. After turning water off to the house I was in desperate need of a plumber to come take a look. I called CLP and Russell was able to come by within the hour to assess. I decided to just remove the unit and was certain I would have to get on the schedule for another day. Much to my surprise he said he could do it right then and there. within 10 minutes the softner unit was out, water lines redirected and water back on. Such quick and professional work at a reasonable price. Would hire again!"

"I had previously used this plumbing company to install new faucets after I had tried to repair on my own. The owner, Mike, came after I found it impossible to complete the job. He worked (in a very cramped space) with difficulty and got the job done. I was so pleased by the service, I called upon him again as we gave the master bathroom a makeover and new faucets were in the plan. We provided the faucets and Mike once again crawled into the small cramped spaces and got the job done. I would normally give the company my highest marks all around, but the item that needs remarking about was the phone communication aspect of the service. Mike was forced to leave after one faucet was completed to address another waiting job (The first faucet was more difficult to remove than anticipated and took much additional time). He said he would return later that night. I felt it unnecessary for him to work at night and agreed for his return the next day. He never showed up and neither he or his office did not call. I called the office and received no call back (his wife takes his office calls). It wasn't until the evening that I heard back and was told that he would be there the next day. He did arrive and I was told of a particularly difficult job that kept him from returning the next day. He has a cell phone. I felt a call back would have gone a long way toward a more satisfactory communication.
As to his work, he is an experienced plumber with a high level of attention to the task at hand. Upon completion, he left us with a high level of satisfaction. On his way out I inquired about some leakage coming from the downstairs toilet that had just begun. He quickly identified the problem. We made a new appointment. He arrived on time and got the job of installing a new seal quickly. Again we were satisfied with his work. On this job, phone issues were not present. I would hire him again without question.

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

No, you don’t want your crawl space to be wet because water and even moisture in the air under your home can attract insects and rodents, decrease your indoor air quality, increase your energy bills, promote mold growth, and even lead to structural damage. If you notice any signs of water or humidity in your crawl space, you should get the issues addressed immediately by contacting a professional. They can remove moisture and will know how to waterproof your basement to prevent ongoing problems.

Most people consider a French drain to be one of the most effective solutions for foundation leaks, but it’s not always a standalone solution. French drains will help keep water away from your foundation to reduce the risk of leaking and structural damage from soil expansion, but depending on your foundation type and location, you might need other systems or techniques—like soil gradation and gutter and leader installation—to resolve the underlying problem.

While a standard gutter system is widely considered the most effective way to prevent water damage to your home's foundation, several alternatives are available. These options can be used on their own in certain climates or as supplementary protection.

Common alternatives include:

  • Rain Chains: These are decorative chains that hang from the roof's edge, guiding rainwater to the ground.

  • Drip Edges: These metal strips are installed at the edge of the roof to direct water away from the fascia. While often used with gutters, they can be paired with a ground-level solution but are typically not sufficient on their own.

  • Rain Dispersal Systems: These systems work by breaking up the heavy sheet of water flowing off the roof, dispersing it over a wider area.

  • French Drains: This ground-level system uses a perforated pipe in a gravel-filled trench to collect and redirect water runoff away from the house.

  • Drip Paths: Placed directly below the roofline, these paths made of concrete, stone, or other materials prevent soil erosion and guide water away.

It's important to note that some alternatives like rain chains and dispersal systems may not be adequate in regions with heavy rainfall because they don't divert water away from the foundation as effectively as a full gutter system. Ground-based solutions like French drains can be very effective but are often more expensive and can affect your landscaping and curb appeal. Many experts recommend installing a full gutter system for maximum protection and using alternatives as supplementary measures.

Walkout basements cost more than other kinds of basements, and can also increase your risk of leaks as well as a loss of insulation, leading to higher heating and cooling costs. Improperly installed walkout basements may lead to structural issues with your foundation, so ensure you’re working with a contractor who has extensive experience with this kind of basement.

Water that pools under pavers can erode the soil foundation and weaken the paver structure. In some situations, it can also cause mold and mildew growth. If that happens, you may need to start budgeting for the cost to build and install a patio to replace the damaged one.
