I called several providers that could seal a crawlspace seepage problem. Brian Flanagan provided the quote for CrawlspaceSolutions after inspecting the cement floor crawlspace and walking around the house inspecting landscape drainage. I ended up with two acceptable quotes. Crawlspace Solutions was significantly less expensive and offered more actual benefit in the combined indoor and outdoor work.
He offered several options for proceeding. At my request Brian broke out the options in his quote for: 1. Only crack injection sealing and interior drain tiling with sump pit and pump 2. Only exterior drainage correction 3. Combined if all work is to done at one time. He also provided options for a battery back up system for the sump pump and for pouring a new floor. An additional discount was offered if work could begin on Wednesday or Thursday the following week. I accepted all options.
The Crew arrived punctually on the Thursday and covered all floors for foot traffic, broke out the perimeter concrete, trenched and installed the tile, pit, pump, overlayed a new smooth finished floor and removed the sod, trenched, graveled, installed the external French drains to clear standing water and replaced the sod slightly raised to accommodate settling. They cleaned up all but a few smudges that were easily wiped away and were gone at the end of the day. Brian came on Friday to check the job. My only concern was that new cement touched the bottom of the furnace ducting in one place. They were to return the following Tuesday to install the battery backup pump, so he said the crew would come back then to cut, chip out, frame and re -cement to increase the clearance to the furnace and install a connection from the furnace depression to the drain tile. He also suggested that they would add another French drain outside and extend one installed the previous Thursday at no additional cost.
The crew arrived again on Tuesday and accomplished all of the assignments. Brian and the crew were very easy to work with and were genuinely dedicated to making sure that they were professionally proud of and that I was pleased with the work. I am extremely pleased with the outcome. The warranty is for life and transferable to a new owner."
"Alex is very skilled in all aspects of the work he preforms! He has the correct equipment that is both new & powerful (when needed); a variety of cleaning product choices that are not damaging to grass, trees or landscaping materials; and his work ethic together with being a very personable new business owner made the entire process enjoyable. The quality of his work is top-notch and well beyond the standard of any other vendor I've had power wash my fence in the past. I already have him booked for more work and would HIGHLY recommend his services to friends and family! Honesty; integrity; high quality workmanship standards; competitive prices - Custom Cleaning Services has it all!"
"We had Patrick come out twice in the past two months. First, after the storm in July, we realized that our pump in our front yard flood control failed, resulting in our basement flooding. Patrick came out quickly to replace the pump. He knows what he's doing. He's been in the business for over 10 years, and he's a truly honest guy. The pump and the installation ran us about $500 bucks. Then, we most recently called him because we noticed a coroded pipe in our basement which was leaking. He said he was going to come out during the day, but didn't show up until dinnertime. One thing I would have appreciated if he would have just called my husband or me to let us know he wouldn't be able to make it until later. But, it wasn't a big deal at all, the work got done and it looks great. I also appreciated when he came out to give us an estimate on the leaking pipe that he checked our pump in the front yard, without us even asking! I thought that was really nice amd showed me that he's looking out for his clients.We will definitely call McDonagh and Sons in the future.... but hopefully not too soon! :)"
"I hired the company to do a make ready [clean up & prep] on a single apartment in a building which I own in the town where I live. I needed the property to be cleaned up so I could rent it again. I have been a landlord for over 20 years & hadn't found a vacated property in such a mess in all my years. They did the complete interior clean-up which took about five hours. And, the complete prep of the property. they took out all the trash & junk, and cleaned up all debris left in the yard. They did such a great job with that I decided to use them for the yard maintenance also. They cleaned all my flowerbeds & got them ready for spring, placed mulch & trimmed the shrubs and flowering trees. On the inside they made everything look brand new! Cleaning the walls, painting, cleaned the carpets & stripped & polished the wood floors...making them look brand new. The appliances that stayed were cleaned inside & out. They even remembered to get all the light fixtures clean for me. Dusted all window seals & doorways. Shine mopped all they tile floors. To top it all off they even gave the bathrooms a fresh clean look by putting a new caulk seal around the tubs, sinks & shower...which gave the bathrooms a fresh face. All in all I found it to be a very stress free pleasant experience. And, I will definitely call on them for the next project because if they could do so well with a nightmare like that I'm sure the less difficult will be equally affordable and easily handled. Everything just looked so nice when they were finished. Thanks, Green Earth "
The soil around your foundation should slope down and away from your home, not toward it. If the grading drops the farther you are from your home, you can enhance the slope by removing more soil. Mark off a few feet from your house and dig up some of this soil. Regrading around your fountain should encourage water to flow away from your home and not collect or “pond.”
If you don’t like the way your empty drainage ditch looks, reach out to a local landscaping professional to discuss your options. They may be able to liven it up with plants, stones, bushes, or other decorative elements. You can also add your own landscaping, but you should first make sure that it won’t block your ditch or prevent it from operating effectively.
DIY landscaping is possible, but professional services offer expertise in selecting appropriate plants and designing functional spaces that complement the natural environment and adhere to local regulations.
Landscape design can be a simple service that includes a drawing or visual representation of how your yard can be set up and optimized for your intended purposes. But it can also include all of the manual labor to make your vision a reality. When you speak with your landscape designer, ensure everyone understands the specific services you want.
Some add-on services may include the following:
Sourcing and delivery of raw materials
Professional installation of features, including pergolas, decks, and pathways
Drainage system design
Recommendations for specific plants and trees
Most experts recommend a quarter-inch layer of compost for best results, and you will need about .77 cubic yards of material per 1,000 square feet. To measure how much compost to use, take the square footage of your yard and multiply it by .77, then divide that number by 1,000.
