I was promptly greeted and asked what I needed. I told the service adviser I had noticed a tire on my 2010 Suzuki SX4 had been leaking air, and I wondered if they could repair it. The adviser said that would be fine, but it might be a wait of about 90 minutes. He asked if I would like to make an appointment and come back later. I said that I would, so I scheduled the appointment for 90 minutes later. When I came back, I got right in, and a technician took the wheel and tire off the vehicle to check for a leak. After a short time, he came and talked with me in the waiting room and explained that it was a rather bad leak, and that they would not be able to repair it. He also mentioned a few options: to replace that one tire; replace all 4 tires, or attempt to repair the leak myself. He walked me out into the store's auto department and pointed out a leak repair kit with a plug and sealant. He said I could easily do it myself, but the service center would not want to attempt the repair due to its location near the sidewall of the tire. I said that I could certainly understand that, and that I appreciated his honesty and advice. I bought the repair kit, and it fixed the problem, and Farm and Fleet didn't charge me anything for checking the tire! I offered to pay them for their time and effort, but they graciously declined to take any money. The repair kit was around $5.00, and I'm still driving the vehicle with no air leak a month later. What a great experience! The people there are always friendly and hard-working, and the prices are generally the cheapest anywhere. I absolutely recommend this service center and store for almost all your automotive needs.

Basement Leak Repair reviews from real Angi homeowners in Sycamore, IL
I was getting mice in my basement 3-4 times per year, and was at the end of my rope. A friend of mine recommended Greathouse Pest Control, so I called. Doug Hamel could not have been nicer. He examined the outdoor perimeter of my house and found 3 different spots where the mice could...

Basement waterproofing and foundation repair company. Family owned since 1957 with over 300,000 dry basements. Free consultations. Lifetime warranties available. Award winning company.
"Good work in general; our basement no longer sees water for over 3 years now, which is the most important thing. But there were some real issues: The biggest issue is that USW did not adhere to local electrical codes, and did not arrange for a final inspection of the project. So we didn't find out that it wasn't to code until years later, and now it's a big hassle and minor cost to fix and get the permits. Ask your local gov yourself what you need to do for permits and inspections; don't rely on USW! USW said they would seal any foundation cracks found along the way; they didn't do this until I bugged the warranty dept about it (but they did do it eventually). USW sent someone out for the "annual checkup"... over 2 years after the install. It's a good thing they (eventually) did, because they discovered the backup battery wasn't charging. Now I know to check this stuff better myself. Prices also vary wildly and are kind of negotiable (I'd give more detail but I'm out of space)"

FAQs for basement leak repair projects in Sycamore, IL
The cost to finish a basement is $18,400 for the average homeowner. However, this cost could be as little as $2,800 or as much as $34,500, depending on the basement size and the materials needed. If your basement is already outfitted with electrical and plumbing, expect the cost to fall on the lower end.
For example, the drywall cost for this project averages around $1,750, but other features, like hiring a plumber, cost between $45 and $200 per hour.
The cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400 for the average homeowner. The price you pay can be as little as $3,500 or as much as $50,200, depending on the size and condition of your basement and the type of remodel you're doing.
If you're doing a simple project like adding a home office to your basement, you can expect to pay anywhere from $500 to $3,000. However, if you're adding a bathroom, which is an extensive project, you can expect to pay between $6,600 to $16,500.
Damp proofing and waterproofing are both methods to help keep your basement dry. Damp proofing keeps soil moisture from entering your basement, which is helpful since your basement is underground. Waterproofing, however, keeps both soil moisture and liquid water out of the basement, which is essential, especially if you live in a wet environment. Because it’s more protective, waterproofing typically costs more than damp proofing.
Although homeowners often use the terms basement remodeling and basement finishing interchangeably, they are quite different terms.
Finishing a basement is the process of taking a basement space that is not habitable and adding elements to make it usable. This includes adding plumbing, flooring, and insulation.
Remodeling a basement means taking an already existing finished basement and changing it, often by adding or removing walls, adding plumbing, or changing the existing flooring.
The cost of basement waterproofing is $4,950 for the average homeowner. However, you could end up paying between $600 and $14,000, depending on factors like basement size, waterproofing method, and the region you live in.
If you live in an area with heavy rainfall, you might be paying more for waterproofing than if you lived somewhere drier since waterproofing contractors would be in high demand. Likewise, a 500-foot basement costs between $2,500and $5,000 to waterproof, but that price rises significantly for a larger basement.
