"We had to have foundation drains installed in our garage in February 2021. The initial inspection was friendly, courteous, and not pushy or pressured. The crew (Unique Porter, Brandon Cruz and Melvin) arrived on schedule and worked through cold, icy/snowy weather to get the work done expeditiously and right. The foreman explained everything as work progressed, consulted with us when unforeseen conditions were encountered, and cleaned up after themselves throughout the process. They did an excellent job of installing the work in 3-1/2 days, working long days to get the work completed as expeditiously as possible. We were very impressed with their work ethic, the quality of work, and the overall end product. We would not hesitate to call upon JES again, and could only hope to have the same crew again for whatever might be needed."

"Excellent work! 2.5 hours start to finish, replaced poly line with copper, trench was filled back in and I barely notice that it was dug (sod put back and all). Foundation was sealed back up perfectly. Really friendly, courteous, and knowledgeable technicians. Thank you DPP!!!"

"Rob was our technician - wonderful customer service and showed up on time on a last minute Friday afternoon call. A bit more expensive than I'm used to for clearing a drain, but very happy he got it done for us so can't complain. Would use them again for sure!"

"Everyone with this company is so polite and helpful. John and Patrick worked so hard to figure out why my new washing machine wouldn't drain properly. They were determined to figure it out before they had to leave. And they did! Two really hard working, polite, caring young men. I would highly recommend Seaside Plumbing."

"Dave came out to give me an estimate on fixing what I was hoping was down 3 ft dig, after explaining my options I chose to go all the way down 6 ft and I was happy that I had. Alex the owner and his crew came out, they dug out the foundation, showed me where the cracks were and came back the next day to finish fixing the cracks installing the waterproof barrier, regrading and filling in the trench. They were professional, on time and amazing to deal with. When they left you would not have known they had been there except for the lack of grass on that side of the house. I would recommend this company to anyone needing their foundation fixed"

"The representative who initially came to the house to explain BDry's procedure was very courteous and professional. I received a quote on the spot. I had two other companies come out (one company did not even bother to get back to me with an estimate). Each company had a different opinion of what needed to be done and BDry's procedure was the least invasive and made the most sense. The team who actually did the work was very courteous and stayed until the job was done - a 12 hour process. (That was one question I didn't think to ask - approximately how long would it take) They communicated with us throughout the day, for example they asked where we wanted the sump pump to drain, instead of just making the decision. Overall, I am very happy we chose BDry.!"

"Quoted me on a Sunday, started that Tuesday, finished and cleaned up on Friday. They worked hard and did an excellent job fixing my foundation and made everything look like new again. Cleaned up after themselves, including power washing the dirt off my driveway and sidewalk. Their prices were more than fair, and they responded quickly to my questions. Would definitely hire again."

"After leaving a message on Angie's List on Saturday, Jim Stephens responded within an hour or so. After exchanging information, he volunteered to make a service call the next day Sunday. Because of my 5-day work week, this was a big relief. On Sunday, he called, as agreed, and asked if he could be at my house in a few minutes. As agreed, he arrived promptly. He diagnosed the problems and, at my request, provided details for solution fix. He had the part in his van and explained how the fix would be done and how it would work. He answered questions and explained clearly and thoroughly. Before beginning the work, he gave me an estimate, which I agreed to. After the work, his stated charge was no more than what his estimate had been. In addition to providing a high-quality solution, he provided, at my request, education about a related issue - the exterior drain for the sump pump. He thoroughly explained how the exterior drain could be extended away from the house to mitigate the fact that the water flow was eroding the soil near the foundation. When Jim left, I was a completely happy customer. I knew that 1) it was not necessary to replace the sump pump and 2) I had the knowledge, going forward, to know how to routinely check and maintain the sump pump functionality. Without hesitation, I can honestly say I will be calling JM Stephens for all my plumbing issues in the future."

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Due to the nature of basements, some level of waterproofing is necessary to prevent water from seeping in and causing damage. Some definitive signs that your basement needs waterproofing measures or needs existing waterproofing measures need to be updated include:

  • Water in your basement, including damp walls or puddles on the floor

  • Mold spots in your basement

  • Musty smells or odors

  • Warped doors or walls

  • Cracks in walls

  • Insect issues, such as cockroaches and termites

Some questions you should ask before hiring a plumber or drainage installation company include:

  • Are you licensed and insured?

  • Do you have any customer testimonials I can read?

  • How do you handle unforeseen challenges that occur during the job?

  • Is your fee a flat rate or hourly?

  • Do you do the work, or do you have subcontractors?

  • Is everyone who does the work licensed and qualified plumbers?

  • Is cleanup included in the quote?

  • Do you offer a warranty or guarantee on your work?

The cost to install a new sump pump, including materials and professional labor, typically ranges from $1,000 to $3,000. The average cost is often cited between $1,200 and $2,500. Several factors influence the final price, including the type of pump, the complexity of the drainage system, and the installation location. For instance, installing a sump pump in a basement may cost around $1,200, while a more complex installation in a crawl space can cost an average of $3,900. It is important to hire a licensed professional for the installation to ensure quality work, which can impact the pump's lifespan and warranty. Note that these costs are for a new installation; replacing an existing unit is less expensive, typically costing $308 to $748.

If the time has come to install a French drain in your yard, basement, or crawl space, there's a solid chance you've been battling water damage—or the threat of water damage—around these areas. Thankfully, proper drainage should allow you to redesign these areas of your home without the fear of being inundated during the next storm. If you've had to remove a portion of your lawn for an exterior French or curtain drain, consider reseeding your lawn to patch up the spot. You can also take this opportunity to enhance your foundation waterproofing methods or even start thinking about finishing your basement .

Yes, many contractors offer warranties for their work. Confirm terms before starting the project.
