"They did successfully stop the leak around the water supply pipe.
The problems started in the week prior to the scheduled work day when I requested that they use schedule 40 pipe.  I made it clear I was willing to pay the difference but was told that they don't ever use schedule 40 because it's "too hard to work with."  I wasn't happy with the answer but had already paid a down-payment and had the work scheduled for almost a month and they told me that schedule 30 is "virtually indestructible" and "would hold up to driving a car over it" so I agreed and went ahead with the work.
A crew of three showed up on time for the job and was doing a good job starting the work, but within the first few hours it was obvious there was no way they would get the job done in one day as expected, so in the afternoon, an additional 5 or 6 workers showed up. Things went downhill from then on.  The first crew was being careful and replacing the old pipe with new to minimize the damage to landscaping and asking me what I wanted if they ran into any problems.  They made sure the new pipe had a downhill grade to the curb, glued the pipe sections together as previously agreed, and replaced dirt / landscaping in an acceptable manner.  The new crew just dug new trenches where ever was most convenient so some of the pipe didn't end up with a downhill grade and they didn't glue sections together.
Since much of the new pipe was laid in new trenches, the displaced dirt wouldn't fit back in the trenches, so it was piled up on top leaving a 4 inch high "gopher trail" in the yard.  Rock displaced by digging under the sidewalk ended up in the yard and when I pointed it out to one of the workers, he said that it the rocks would sink down in the dirt over time.  That was when I realized it was pointless to try to get them to fix anything they did wrong.
Over the following weeks when we fixed their work, we found that some of the sod was buried under dirt and some just thrown back upside down.  When I was digging a hole to re-plant one of the bushes they neglected to replace, a fairly light push on the shovel easily went right through the new pipe.
Needless to say, I am not pleased with the work.  Maybe the Basement Doctor should stick to basement repairs and leave outside trenching to someone else.   I used them because of a referral from another company a friend had used, but my experience with them is the main reason I signed up with Angie's List.

"We were pleased with the customer service, skill set and careful attention provided by Indiana Foundation during last week's waterproofing work on our basement. Josh Solomon and Noah Salisbury were diligent in their attention to our questions and concerns, going the extra mile to ensure a quality installation that met our needs. Our basement is already drier and we hope to build it out for a play/rec room soon."

"We were in a bind a month and half ago when we needed to have a wheelchair accessible ramp installed to the front porch of our house. After numerous frantic phone calls , Tim stepped in to help out. His crew had the job done in inclement weather to our complete and utter amazement. Kudos to a job well done. We definitely recomend them for any home care needs."

"We are very satisfied with their work. Workers were very professional and the hardest working group I have ever seen. They installed an under the floor drainage system along a 60 foot basement wall. We have had no water on our basement floor since it was installed 2 months ago. We have had multiple downpours since then. We had water on our basement floor every time it rained before their installation. We highly recommend them."

"

Me and my wife had recently purchased our home. Shortly after we discovered there was water damage in the basement we didn't know how serious it was until Brian (One of the owners of Basement Armor) came out to inspect. He found the home had concrete steps, which were covered by a wooden deck, and the steps began to sink and created a void to which water was filling our crawl space and eventually making its way into our basement.  (Previous contractors didn't even mention the steps)

The first good thing about Brian and Basement Armor is the price was very affordable for the amount of work he did! We had two other companies come out and the prices they quoted us was unbelievable and their work did not include the French drain in the basement. Brian offered me references and I was able to contact them and even view the work he performed. Everyone I spoke to had nothing but nice things to say and viewing the work he performed had me sold.

The next thing that really stood out was Brian, the owner, was actually in my basement performing the work WITH his guys! This I have never seen. This made me feel at ease about the work being performed, he was approachable and kept me and my wife in the loop about everything going on. Brian made sure the work being performed was to his satisfaction. He even took care of a few things that was not in the contract.

There are so many good things I can say about the work performed by Basement armor. Its the little things that count and Brian takes pride in those little things. While disconnecting my washer and dryer he noticed we had a leak from the kitchen down into the basement. He took care of it for us without charging extra! Other companies would have not even acknowledged there was a leak, let alone fix it with no additional charge. I hope I am making it clear Brian did an outstanding job for us! We are on his list of references and we highly recommend Basement Armor!

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Yes, water coming up from the floor should be treated as an emergency. If you're unable to either identify or stop the source of the water on your own, contact an emergency plumber right away. In addition to harming your flooring, standing or pooled water can lead to water-damaged concrete.

A sewage smell in your crawl space is usually from a damaged or clogged pipe leaking sewer gasses or actual sewage underneath your home, but there are some other common causes. Moisture, from poor or damaged encapsulation or a malfunctioning sump pump, can harbor mold and bacteria, causing a musty smell. Pests can also get stuck in your crawl space and die, which causes a sewage-like odor.

If foundation problems are not fixed, they will likely worsen over time, leading to more complex and expensive repairs. Neglecting a damaged foundation can cause a range of issues, including:

  • Structural Damage: Minor problems like small cracks can escalate into major structural issues. This can damage the house above the foundation and, in severe cases, lead to foundation walls caving in or a total collapse.

  • Water Damage and Pests: Moisture and water intrusion can cause flooding, mold growth, and pest infestations.

  • Health and Safety Risks: Mold can lead to poor indoor air quality and other health risks, while structural instability poses a significant safety hazard.

  • Reduced Home Efficiency: A compromised foundation can negatively impact your home's energy efficiency.

To avoid these escalating problems and costs, it's best to hire a foundation repair company to address any issues as soon as you become aware of them. The earlier problems are discovered and fixed, the lower the repair cost will likely be.

When doing any type of project involving mold, it's important to wear the right protective gear. You'll want an N-95 or KN-95 mask to keep yourself from inhaling mold spores, which can be irritating or trigger an allergic reaction in people with weakened immune systems. You'll also want to wear protective eyewear and gloves to limit your contact with mold.

Yes, cleaning a crawl space is worth the cost. Although it's an out-of-sight area, neglecting it can lead to significant problems like pest infestations (including termites and carpenter ants), mold, and fungal growth, which can cause structural damage. Regular cleaning helps prevent these issues. While hiring a contractor has ongoing costs, the price for cleaning—typically between $0.50 and $4 per square foot—is much lower than the cost to remediate a pest or mold problem. Additionally, a clean crawl space can lead to improved indoor air quality and more comfortable temperatures in your home.
