"Called company on Monday and got an appointment for an inspection on Wednesday. That following Monday, the technician arrived and went through each step is sealing off the concrete foundation to the water leak. The fix worked well and was put to the test with the recent record rains. Not one drop of water came into the basement."

"I got the referral from home advisor, and Anthony called about 3 hours later, and said he could come by in about 2 hours. About 1 ½ hours later he is at the door. he listened to my problem, explained what needed to be done, gave an estimate on rodding before starting, and then cleared the drain, then gave an estimate on the other problems I had. His first priority was that my drain was cleared. He made me feel as though he really cared his work, and his customers. I will be calling him back for the minor work as soon as I can. Thanks"

"This company was recommended by a plumber friend of ours who was out of town when our problem (all the toilets backing up to the top of the bowl and a little coming up the shower drains) occurred.  When I called, I was actually able to speak with him, was very easy to talk to, gave us the same diagnosis as what our friend had said (either a clogged or broken sewer drain pipe) and a specific range of what the cost would be.  Set up the appointment and he was there promptly when he said he would be, evaluated the situation, gave us the price and basically worked the whole day on the repair (had to dig approx. 5 ft. down in front of our foundation to get to the pipe).  I felt he was professional, courteous and efficient and completed the job to my satisfaction.

"I would like to thank Mariano and crew from Chicago Basement Systems for the very efficient work they performed in my home crawl space. They replaced my failed sump pump and drain tile; installed a Sani-Dry Sedona dehumidifier; installed a backup battery; installed steel beams and piers; installed a waterproofing membrane on the crawl space floor; and encapsulated the entire crawl space. Now I don't smell odors seeping from my crawl space, and my house no longer shakes when cars drive over the city speed bump outside my house. Also, I can now use my clean dry crawl space for extra storage. Thank you Chicago Basement Systems for peace of mind knowing that this project has a lifetime transferrable warranty. I highly recommend Chicago Basement Systems for crawl space repairs!"

"Very well. It took two visits to determine the extent of the work. I am hoping all this work does the trick and our drains work more properly. We were experiencing slow draining in the two kitchen sinks. The building is old, 131 years old, and has the original stack. The technician said that our catch basin and sewer line are in good shape. It took some time to clear the stack. There is some concern that the stack might need replacing in the future."

"November 13 2025 I hired Elite & Elevated Construction & Excavation to complete excavation, footings, and foundation work for a large project I was working on. I invested about $55,000 in the project, and I couldn?t be happier with the results. The job was completed perfectly and on time, even though the weather conditions were terrible. We had snow, rain, and freezing temperatures, but nothing stopped Mario and his crew. They showed up every day, worked efficiently, and stayed committed to getting the job done right and fast. I truly appreciate their dedication because I needed the work completed quickly, and despite the weather challenges, they delivered exactly what they promised. Professional, reliable, and hardworking team. I would definitely recommend Elite & Elevated Construction & Excavation, and I will absolutely hire them again to install my concrete driveway in the future"

Foundation Drain Installation FAQs, answered by experts

If you hire a professional, installing a new sewage ejector pump costs $850 to $3,500, or an average of $2,300. Otherwise, if you handle the installation yourself, you can expect to pay $500 to $1,000 for the sewage ejector pump, permits, and other supplies required for this DIY project.

Installing a sump pump takes a bit of know-how, but it is possible to do it yourself. You’ll need to familiarize yourself with details like where sump pump water goes to avoid creating new flooding risks. If you’re doing the work yourself, it’s recommended to bring in a pro for a quick inspection afterward so you can be sure your home is protected from any water damage concerns.

Most sump pumps come with power cords that can be plugged into an outlet, but there are options that can be hardwired into a home’s electrical system. Either way, it’s smart to have a backup power supply in case the electricity goes out during a storm. That way, the sump pump can keep running and removing water from the sump pit.

The best basement waterproofing method depends on the specific issue causing the water intrusion. For minor problems, simple solutions like installing a properly functioning gutter system to direct runoff away and grading the soil to slope away from your foundation can be effective.

If you have more significant water problems, the solution will need to be more robust:

  • For standing water on the basement floor, a floor drain or a sump pump system may be the best solution.

  • For water pooling around the foundation, installing an exterior French drain can intercept water before it reaches the basement walls.

Other effective waterproofing methods, which can be used depending on your home's specific needs, climate, and soil type, include sealing the interior walls, landscape alteration, installing interior drainage systems, and using a dehumidification system to control moisture levels.

The difference between an ejector pump and a sump pump lies in their purpose and design—an ejector pump functions to remove liquid gray water and soft solid sewage waste from your home. If you have a laundry room or bathroom in your basement, an ejector pump for your sewage tank prevents sewage from backing up in your washing machine or bathroom’s drains.

A sump pump is designed to remove excess groundwater that may enter your home, either due to flooding or periods of heavy rain.
