We are committed to excellence in every aspect of our business. We uphold a standard of integrity bound by fairness, honesty, and personal responsibility. Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers' interests, and make their concerns the basis of our business.

"I called them all and spent several months deciding before I chose Shore up. Why? I had a lot of questions and Eric either picked up the phone when I called or returned my texts & calls promptly. He calmed my fears and answered every question (some 2x). They never sent me pressured texts about discounts from salespeople I’d never met. Shore -Up’s bid was competitive but the super helpful staff that seem to love the company sealed the deal for me. Lifting a house up is a big expensive but necessary job. Its a tough decision that has no vanity pay off like a new paint job or kitchen remodel. I really appreciate their staff particularly Clay, Wade, Zach, & Adlai. They kept me informed throughout the process. They rescued my old home and treated it with care. I feel confident recommending this company to anyone on the fence about raising or stabilizing a foundation. They are genuine Home Savers that care about the quality of their work and treat the people they help with respect. "

At Aspire Homes we offer top notch Remodeling and Handymen work This includes but is not limited to: drywall, painting, floor repair, mounting objects on walls, calking, moving heavy objects, yard work, landscaping etc. At Aspire we encourage all of our handymen to complete each job with dedication, persistence and an eye for detail. We ensure that each homeowner gets high quality workmanship and that the homeowner is completely satisfied by the time we leave the home.

"I had an overall estimate prepared by Jonathan in early July, which was better than the other contractor that had come out. Tristan from Aspire then came out and removed the bad brick molding, installed the flat type of molding that was wanted along with the ledge over the doorway to ensure no rain would be able to get into the top of the storm door when it rains, which was good too. Tristan had to deal with heavy downpours of rain while trying to install the molding. For what he had to deal with, he did good. Tristan remeasured the back door for Jonathan so the proper size of storm door I wanted could be ordered. After aproximately a month and a half I reached out to Jonathan by text to get an estimated time for the door to be installed, but never received a response. Approximately two weeks later I was contacted by Aspire and informed Jonathan had been let go and someone else from Aspire would continue the job. I was then contacted by another worker, Peter, who was very informative even though he had been given very few notes on what still had to be done. Peter came out September 15th and he was able to get information about the storm door being at the Home Depot in Pensacola even though I live in the Fort Walton Beach area. After Peter picked up the door and brought it to the house, he measured my back door and the storm door he picked up to find out the storm for was too big for my doorway (36" door was ordered, my doorway was measured at 29"). Peter returned the storm door to the local Home Depot and had to special order another storm door. Peter kept me informed about what was going on and he would come back out to install the door once it was in at Home Depot and anticipated to install the storm door on October 2nd. I advised Peter I had to be at work by a certain time and he advised he could install it without me being at the house. On October 2nd another worker named Joel, who came out to the house, but I had overslept and did not hear the doorbell. I was contacted by Aspire to reschedule since Joel could not make contact with me. I informed them that I was under the impression Peter would be coming out. They advised Peter was not available and Joel would be the one coming out again on October 5th. When Joel did come out he was only provided minimal notes about replacing molding for a storm door to be installed. He did not know a storm door had been ordered and was to be picked up at the local Home Depot. Once Joel got in contact with Aspire, he went and picked up the storm door and began to install it. I had to leave for work prior to Joel finishing the job, but he provided me a text message later on stating he installed the door and where the keys for the storm for were left. After returning home that night I recovered the keys for the door and looked at storm door. I noticed the frame of the storm door on the latch side was not snug up against the top of the door frame for the storm door and the latch does not catch the plate to stay closed and the storm door has to have the deadbolt extended to keep the storm door from being opened if pulled on without having to turn the handle. This is why I only provided three stars since there was a gap in the process, multiple workers and minimal information that was provided to the workers to keep them informed of the current process of the job being conducted."

Basement Leak Repair questions, answered by experts

The frequency with which a French drain clogs depends on various factors, such as the amount of debris that enters the pipe, the quality of the French drain installation, the type of grate and filter used, and how often it is maintained. That’s why it’s recommended to clean your French drain at least once a year, whether it is clogged or not. This can prevent clogs and increase the lifespan of your drain.

It depends on what caused your basement flooding, the extent of the problem, and the risk of the flood continuing. If your flood is coming from a septic system or sewer line, breathing in the sewer gasses can be dangerous, so you should vacate. If the flood occurs from an ongoing natural disaster, relocating to a safe area might be wise. If you just have a plumbing leak or rainwater coming in, you can likely stay in the house if you don’t have electrical lines down there, but make sure you call in professionals to fix the issue immediately.

The most challenging part of finishing a basement is addressing moisture control. Basement waterproofing is an essential task that requires a professional’s skills and knowledge. If you don’t properly waterproof your finished basement, it’ll be vulnerable to dampness, water damage, and mold growth. Ensuring proper insulation and ventilation to combat these issues while meeting building codes adds complexity to your remodeling project.

You can DIY basement waterproofing in some ways to help save on the overall costs. If your basement isn’t experiencing a lot of water but is noticeably humid, you can try running a dehumidifier that will pull the excess water out of the air. If you notice water leaking due to outdoor drainage issues, you can add downspout extensions to keep rainwater away from your home. 

However, if the problem is more severe and requires a more extensive solution, it’s best to call a basement waterproofing professional to assess the treatment you need and install waterproofing safeguards properly. Since keeping water out of your basement is important, ensuring this job is done correctly the first time is best.

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.
