"I had 3 other basement companies come out to give me quotes on stopping water from coming into my basement and fixing one of my bowing walls. Bill from Greentree was the only one to look outside my home during the inspection after taking a look inside to see if there were any issues they could take care of outside as well. He was also the only one to notice my egress window did not have a drain installed. The quote was $2000-$4000 cheaper than other companies and more work was to be completed by Greentree (drain for egress, sealing egress window from outside, re-sealing all other basement windows, sealing a noticeable crack in foundation on outside, installed 2 I-beams on bowing wall and installing the waterproofing system around the whole basement). The other companies were just going to install the waterproofing system and put up I-beams. Bill seemed the most knowledgeable and caring about the situation, not just wanting to sell the waterproofing system like the other companies. The crew that did the work was sure to contain the dust in just the basement. They were also sure to inform me of what they would be doing each day so I could decide if my infant daughter needed to be somewhere else for the day. They covered everything with plastic (including furnace/AC/water heater) and moved a few things to ensure dust wouldn't get all over everything. The foreman (Kevin?) explained the sump pump and back up before they left at the end of the week and made sure to answer any questions I had. For anyone having water troubles in their basement and not wanting to spend the fairly large amount of money to fix it, just do it and you'll be glad you did. Once you see all the work involved, you will understand the price better. And once you have flash flood rains and have NO water in your basement for the first time, you will be wishing you had fixed the problem sooner. I no longer have to run my dehumidifier 24/7 and already seeing the savings on my electric bill as well."

"Jeff is fabulous. I have been battling water problems for years. Each rain brought 2-3 standing water. Tried several contractors that couldn't fix problem. I have been dry for 2 years. Finally finished my basement. Jeff even called after the first big rain storm to see if everything was ok. Recommended him to several homeowners in the Lake Bracken area. 10 gold stars. Thanks Jeff."

"Our brand new system was not heating properly. Gary (FIVE STAR EMPLOYEE) came and fixed a problem. It was not straight forward and he had to do a bit of research, but he made it work better than it ever had!. He came back the next day and changed the filter and rec-hecked the system. We were warm and snug after his dedicated service! Thanks for the GREAT experience."

"Thrasher did an excellent job repairing our driveway. They leveled out the entire driveway with amazing precision, and they fixed all the gaps with an attractive sealant that blends beautifully with the concrete. All of the team members I interacted with were professional and polite. I am very pleased with the results and only wish I’d called them sooner."

"We couldn't be more pleased with Indiana Foundation Service! After living in our home for many years we finally have sump pumps and a drain in our crawlspace with a new vapor barrier. The crawlspace was always wet in the spring with a musty smell that transmitted to the living space. While we would have preferred an encapsulation the cost was more than we were comfortable with. Jamie Montgomery, Raymond Martin, and Jeremy Pyles were excellent! They arrived on time, went to work immediately, protected the interior of our home and cleaned up completely afterwards. The whole process was most professional, from the initial call to Aaron Ewert, salesperson. Everything was like clock work. Highly recommend Indiana Foundation Service!"

French Drains questions, answered by experts

If methods like hot water or a plunger don’t work on your clogged drain, you can snake your drain to dislodge the plug. This can be a messy process, taking some physical effort and additional time over the other drain-clearing options. You can purchase a drain snake at a hardware store and choose from handheld options or those attached to a drill. Just work slowly, and be ready to call a plumber if you’re unable to reach the clog from your drain or P-trap.

Biodegradable drain cleaners use naturally derived ingredients, such as baking soda, vinegar, and boiling water, which bacteria and other microbes can break down. Unlike conventional cleaners that rely on corrosive bleach (sodium hydroxide), biodegradable options are gentler on fixtures and less harmful to the environment. Because they don't release harmful gasses, they are also safer to use, especially in households with children, and do not require the same safety precautions as bleach-based products.

Professionals use augers, hydrojetting equipment, and cameras for precise clearing and inspection.

To get rid of a sewer smell in your crawl space, you’ll have to find the source of the problem. If it has to do with your sewer lines, then repairing the line will help. You may need to make other repairs, like fixing your sump pump or encapsulating your crawl space to reduce moisture. After you make the repair, depending on the issue, you may still need to clean out your crawl space to get rid of the stink.

That pungent rotten egg smell coming from your drain is likely the buildup of biofilm—hair, skin, and soap scum that turns into a black sticky mess. In this case, pouring down near-boiling water, baking soda, and white vinegar will remove the smell. Keep in mind that a rotten egg smell is occasionally a sign of larger sewage line clogs and other related issues.
