"When they gave us the estimate, we gave them the initial deposit of $2,500. At our bank, Brian put his name above the name of the company name in different colored ink on the check. This threw up a red flag at the bank. They called us about it, telling us it would not go through. He then told us about not being able to cash it at the bank, and we wrote another for the same amount directly to Brian, thinking our bank still had the check. He told us later that he had given the first check to his brother, Andy, who cashed it immediately at another bank, so they ended up having the initial deposit and the second of three checks before they even started the job! Aside from that, they were very diligent, working almost non-stop on the replumbing project. During this period, they also asked us for a draw because of vehicle troubles, which were evident, and we gave them $100, for which they gave us a receipt. On the third day, they discovered a plaster wall that was unknown to us. They emailed us saying they could not go on without an adjustment in price ($1,000 more plus an agreement that we let them do a kitchen sink re-route to the city main sewer for $4,400. We felt that the increase was reasonable. We agreed to pay it and signed the contract for the re-route. All during this time, we had to stay in a hotel but tried to be there but out of their way when needed. During the re-route drain portion, I noted to Andy that a ceiling fan in a back bedroom was spraying water when turned on and all light bulbs placed in that fan buzzed and shorted out. He quickly offered to replace the fan, which he did that night. Earlier that day, I had to use my Shop-Vac to clean up some sheetrock dust and found soaked insulation filling the inside. I didn't tell him that day what I found, because I didn't make the connection between the two until later. He also told me that the p-trap in the guest bathroom was leaking, and he put a new p-trap on. I then told him about a kitchen sink drainage pipe that was now leaking and that we couldn't turn the dishwasher on. He performed additional work on those, and they appeared to work properly. A day after I gave him the check for the re-route, I noticed that the same p-trap in the guest bedroom was leaking, the kitchen drain was still leaking, a pipe was sticking through the wall into the entryway and a spigot on the front of the house was very wobbly and felt I couldn't put any pressure to turn it off or on. The day after that, the 4th or 5th day, I called and messaged Andy about a callback to address the problems that still needed fixing. It took a day before I got a response from him where he first said he and Brian were no longer in business together, but promised that we were "FIRST ON THE LIST" on the 21st to fix those problems. He never showed up. He ignored all phone calls and messages and has up to the date of this complaint. I then messaged Brian about coming back and fixing the items and he initially that he would but since then he has ignored all messages. I've since replaced the p-trap in the guest bedroom at my own expense, in order to get the house back together and functioning. I also had to purchase an additional $200 in materials and tools to rebuild the entryway wall where it was torn out on two sides to route pipes for the outside back spigot. I've made repeated attempts to reach both of them, both on phone and text messages, all being ignored."

"I had purchased ($100) a Delta 1700 manifold to replace a 50-year-old one that could not be turned off all the way and was dripping about 3 drops per second, but needed help installing it. While his estimate of $395 seemed high I wanted to have quality work that I would not have to worry about in the future, so I went with one that was recommended as A by Angie's list.
He began by cutting through the tile and pulling the old American Standard out through the front. The cuts were so large that even the face-plate, used to cover the old holes in the tile, had a hard time covering them. It was attached by molly bolts that were on the edge of the holes in the wall, one in front and one behind the pex tubing. He did reduce the price since I served as a helper, cutting openings in the wallboard of the closet to which the shower backed. The final price was $295 for two hours of work. When I offered him the discount coupon from Angie's for 5% off. He cleaned up somewhat.

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

No. Sump pumps have different capacities, which refers to the volume of water that they can remove. They also come in various horsepower ratings, which measure the size of the pump’s motor. For many homes, 1/3 horsepower is enough. But if you live in an area that floods often, you might need a more powerful model.

No, you can’t drain your sump pump into your home’s sewer system. In fact, it’s against the law in many places because dumping extra water into a municipal water system can disrupt or overwhelm the treatment process. And for similar reasons, you shouldn’t discharge a sump pump into your septic system, either.

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 .

Thankfully, you do have a few sump pump backup options in case it fails. One option is a battery-powered backup sump pump. Another option is using a portable backup generator as a power supply for your sump pump. Unlike a battery-powered backup which has limited power, a generator can run around the clock for as long as you need it. 

Or you can opt for a water-powered backup pump, which uses your home’s water supply as a source of power. However, this may not be the best option if you find your house frequently has low water pressure.

You should take care of any sign of water in your basement, whether it’s dampness after heavy rain or puddles of water on the floor. Besides potentially causing a health hazard, the moisture can damage your home’s structure and foundation. Furthermore, mold can grow quickly and spread throughout the rest of your home. With mold remediation costs ranging between $1,200 and $3,400, it’s best to avoid mold issues by fixing the leak.
