"Home Advisor jumped the gun misidentified the project and they were not hired. This is an issue with Home Advisor, they don't read the project before they start sending out for quotes."
"Needed to have a water softener loop and drain installed with associated replumbing of outside faucets and kitchen main (these have to remain "hard"). Very fast and professional. Great price"
"Installed new water main line. Company kept me updated with work progression, were very polite and professional on the phone. Answered my questions and finished work. It is early so really can't anticipate how long or how problem free."
"Our sewer service between the city and the house failed due to poor materials when the house was built in '95. Once it was all exposed, it was easy to see what a poor system a less caring plumber had installed. Vince and company replaced it all quickly and easily with the proper materials. We use Vince exclusively for all of our plumbing needs."
"Showed up before I was off of the phone. Diagnosed the problem and solved it before a tear fell from my face about having to call a plumber on a Monday! "

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts
Yes, the air from a damp basement can travel up into your living area through a process called the stack effect, so moisture, mold spores, and other debris in your basement air can all decrease your indoor air quality on your main floors. Additionally, damp basements can promote the rotting of building materials, which can damage flooring, insulation, and framing on your first floor in addition to materials in the basement.
One handy thing about whole-house dehumidifiers is, once installed, you don’t have to worry about placement or changing the dehumidifier’s position. But if you are using a portable dehumidifier, we suggest keeping it away from walls, vents, and furniture. It needs a central, unobstructed spot with access to lots of air to do its job.
A crawl space is an area under the house that provides access to plumbing, electrical, heating ducts, and other HVAC units. Its purpose is to create a buffer between the ground and the living area, helping with ventilation, moisture control, and access for maintenance or repairs. Crawl spaces are most often seen in houses in North America which are built on concrete foundations versus other parts of the world where buildings are constructed differently.
Yes, engineers assess soil load-bearing capacity and provide construction guidelines.
Crawl spaces are the more desirable option overall because they provide additional space for storage and utilities, but they are more expensive to install and maintain.
