"I bought a 105 year old home that has been in my family several generations. I knew I would need a lot of help to update yet preserve this California bungalow. Salvator immediately saw my vision, the houses potential and correct tasks needed to preserve, update, and reliably work on this unique home with the things I needed done. There were almost daily pivots needed and his crew (Emilio, Noe, Henry) rose to each challenge with a way not only to just make it work but also to improve what was already there. Salvator helped me make a few choices with his experience and expertise which worked out amazing. Salvator was the only contractor who recommended things to be done the right way not the cheapest way which would only lead to major and costly problems later. This is my second time working with this group and I would reach out again in an instant if needed. Their craftsmanship and professionalism is worth every penny and that is not always easy to find.

"Entire HVAC system installed in May of 2024. Installer misinformed me about system operations. Part of prepaid maintenance agreement is a hot water heater flush annually. Technician refused to perform service stating that my unit was too old and pushed to sell me a new unit. Mine is eight years old and still has two years on the warranty. To retain my Trane HVAC system warranty I need to have it inspected each spring and fall. Twice this spring, Precision has scheduled this and no one came. One time ?someone accidentally canceled the appointment ? and again today I was taken off of the schedule because ?we just don?t have the manpower ? . Neither time was I notified. They are putting the system warranty in jeapardy. These inspections were prepaid by me last year."

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

If you’re wondering how much water a French drain can handle, a well-designed system manages around 75 gallons per minute. However, the answer varies based on the overall design, slope, and the type of aggregate material used. Additionally, the size of the aggregate used in the system impacts its capacity, with larger aggregate creating larger voids that are able to accommodate more water.

You might need a permit to modify or repair any portion of your plumbing system, including drainage lines, depending on where you live. In some areas, simple replacements of existing drain lines don’t require a permit. We recommend asking your drain pipe installer or your local building department about permitting requirements. In many cases, only certified plumbers can pull plumbing permits, so you’ll usually need to leave the permit application to your professional. The fee for the permit will be passed to you on your project bill, though.

Not every window well has a drain installed at the base; instead, some rely on gravel at the base to naturally filter water down to the soil below. However, if water is not draining fast enough, you should either improve the gravel layer (it may have compacted since you installed it) or hire a plumber near you to install a proper drainage solution at the base of the well.

The most cost-effective foundation repair is using masonry patches and sealants to seal foundation cracks and offer some support to prevent further damage. These methods are used to fix minor foundation cracks quickly. However, they’re not suitable as a long-term solution, and they only offer minimal stability. On average, masonry patches and sealants cost $500, but a sealant like an epoxy crack injection can total over $2,000. If you’re handy and only looking for a temporary solution until you contact a local foundation repair contractor for a more permanent one, you can save hundreds by DIYing this repair.

You must first assess where water is coming from to drain water runoff successfully. Redirect downspouts and gutters to reroute runoff from your roof away from your driveway and foundation. Then, install drain systems, swales, or porous materials below the surface of your driveway and nearby drains to help manage water and improve drainage.
