"Hired Eric for just a couple of small jobs around our house. He came at the exact time he told me he would and always got back to me right away when I had questions. Everything was fixed perfectly. We are going to finish our basement and because of the work on the small jobs we decided hire him to do the plumbing. Could not recommend him more. Will update review again when the basement job is finished."

"I can't recommend him (and his team) highly enough. What started as a curb stop repair turned into one of those jobs where experience and problem-solving really matter, and he handled everything exceptionally well. He showed up when he said he would, communicated clearly throughout the project, and did the work the right way. He went above and beyond, and it was obvious he cared more about doing the job correctly than simply getting it done. Finding someone who is knowledgeable, dependable, and genuinely takes pride in their work isn't always easy. I'm grateful for everything he and his crew did and wouldn't hesitate to call him again or recommend him to anyone needing excavation work."

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Basements with persistent moisture problems or flooding shouldn’t be finished until the moisture issues have been fixed. In addition, if your foundation is cracked, you have unmitigated radon levels, or you have asbestos or lead pipes, remediate the underlying problem before finishing your basement. Turning a basement into living space before fixing these issues can lead to serious health risks or structural damage. 

Your sump pump will discharge water through a discharge line or pipe. The discharge line should be placed at least 10–20 feet from the foundation to avoid any issues.

Submersible and pedestal sump pumps are two popular types of sump pumps. Submersible models are covered by water in a sump pit, which helps keep the motor cooler and quieter. Pedestal sump pumps stick out of the sump pit, so the motor stays dry and is easier to access. Submersible sump pumps are the pricier option, but they also have longer life spans.

A sump pump will drain a flooded basement if it has a horsepower strong enough to remove the water faster than it is entering the room. If you have the wrong type or size of sump pump installed–or if your sump pump has failed–you may need to take additional steps to stop the flow of water or remove it manually.

Pooling or standing water in your basement should be cause for alarm and action. This indicates that there is a leak or a drainage issue, and until you repair the root of the problem, the situation will only happen again or grow in severity. It’s important to deal with water damage as soon as it occurs.
