"Don, Josh, Andrew, and Dillon showed up on time and worked long hours to secure our home and save it from a failing foundation. Brandon had explained the process and our options well, and they were able get all permits in place and start work earlier than expected. Care was taken to respect the landscaping, and protect the water supply. Thank you all! We can highly recommend this crew."

"Tim was very responsive from day one.  The job was on a cabin about 3 hours from where I live and he updated me regularly on the progress of the work. With the rain we have had this summer, the job turned into much more than he had bargained for (or quoted for)...but he stuck with it until the job was completed.  The work he did for me turned out great and I would highly recommend him to anybody looking for a hard working and honest contractor who does excellent work.

"The diamond was recovered successfully and the drain cleaned at the same time. In addition, I would like to add that John has provided many services at my home over the years. I am thankful that he wears many hats and has been able to help me on each occasions --garage door, dishwasher, screen door repair and as mentioned, even in my time of panic, when I lost my diamond down the drain. I trust him in my home, and he gets the job done as stated. He has ALWAYS come through for me. He is professional and respectful. He takes the time to listen and understand what I need and has made great suggestions on things I would not have even considered. This is important to me, as I do not have the answers and do need someone who has excellent analysis and reasoning skills. I am confident in sharing his name with family and friends, knowing he will provide excellent service. John also provides a very detailed invoice and his prices are excellent. He has made my life much easier!"

"Mike from Pioneer Plumbing did an excellent job of replacing our leaky kitchen faucet.  He even tried his best to fix the old one first, to try and save us some money. 
He was very professional and punctual.  I will definitely recommend doing business with Pioneer Plumbing.

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

In most cases, yes, because the large majority of basements leak or will have moisture issues at some point, and waterproofing methods can mitigate that risk or eliminate it entirely. Plus, water and moisture issues can be quite problematic, as they can lead to mold growth, rotting of building materials, structural damage, poor indoor air quality, increased electric bills, and other problems.

Below-ground shelters are the best in terms of durability, but there is a risk of flooding and obstruction. Modern technology and rigorous construction requirements make above-ground shelters a better option for accessibility, safety, and, usually, your budget. They may not have the same aesthetic appeal, but many of their features make above-ground shelters a better option. 

It’s not the number of weep holes that should be of concern to builders but rather their spacing. Weep holes are usually spaced anywhere between 16 inches on center when using round tubes or wicking materials and 24 inches on center when using open-head joints. This is a more conservative spacing than the 33-inch maximum spacing on center that’s mentioned in the International Residential Code. All in all, the total number of weep holes a brick exterior should have will depend on the size of the structure.

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. 

The best type of basement ventilation system depends on your budget, the moisture in your basement’s air, and the types of windows you have down there. You should consider all of these factors when choosing a ventilation system. However, the most effective method for basement ventilation is an energy recovery ventilator (ERV) or a whole-house ventilation system, which preheats or precools incoming air from the outside while also managing water vapor.
