Get matched with top foundation drain installation pros in Mount Summit, IN

"I had a flooded basement due to a storm. In the process also discovered 2 large foundations cracks. After calling in several foundation repair companies Hitman was the only one who took the time to properly diagnose the cause of my flood. Their team then fixed and repaired all of the issues in a day. I am so grateful because this flood was uninsured costs I didn’t want to face again. One of the other companies I had come in to diagnose gave me a $10,000 proposal that wouldn’t have even fixed the problems. Thank you Hitman for running an exceptional business."

"Problem was rain water penetrating the foundation cement blocks and being forced up to wet the subfloor. Foundation blocks also had cracked in one location. Solution was to apply plastic and sealant to the outside foundation wall and to pipe water away. Also Ever-Dry workers installed sump pumps and perforated pipe around the inside foundation wall (in crawl space), drilled the blocks on the inside to allow any water in the blocks to escape to the sump pumps. The foundation vents were sealed, a dehumidifying system was installed, and heavy vinyl was installed over the floor. The workers were very punctual and courteous. The only improvement would have been if they had done a little better job of removing the building rubble that was uncovered during the foundation trenching."

"Jacob did a great job in miserable conditions. Sidewalk is now perfectly level and rerouted drain has made a big difference."

"The crews were extraordinarily polite, friendly, efficient, and very energetic. They ran into a lot of underground water when digging the trench for the buckled wall repair, but were able to put in the necessary reinforcements from inside the basement extending out to the trenched area. We live in an area with a lot of underground springs and artesian water, and when they began work the dirt under the foundation and crawl space was just wet mud, and water poured in at 36 inches deep as they created an outlet for the water to be safely drained away from the house. The basement is completely dry and we have a back up sump pump. My basement is surrounded by a crawl space since it was added after the house was built. The sump pumps and dehumidifier are warrantied for 5 years and the waterproofing has a lifetime warranty. Our house had problems because the basement was added after the house was built, but Indiana Foundation was able to make the house safe, and completely dry and usable. Since we live on a hillside, we will be adding a French drain behind the house and garage, far enough away to not further damage any of the foundations, but at the natural flow of the hillside where water collects to run down hill or underground. If we go at least 36 inches deep, it should help reduce some of the water that flows into the house area. This was some advice given by the supervisor at Indiana Foundation. They don't install French drains any longer, as they don't carry away all water and don't carry a guarantee, but in our situation it will probably help and is something I will be contracting out in the near future. The French drain is similar to what farmers install in fields to drain away excess water to a creek or deep ditch. It isn't something we have to do, but it will put a lot less strain on the sump pumps and other equipment, and in case of a long term power outage, would likely save our other appliances too (furnace, water heater, walls, etc.). I love the battery back up pump and it has already been in use twice when we had two separate power outages from storms. The workmen from Indiana Foundation were delightful to have in my home, running in and out with loads of materials, cheerfully hammering the walls and floors to install their system. Second: My electrician was able to repair a line running to our garage after the water problem was resolved. Water poured in over the connections in the basement without our realizing it, and no electricity was live in the back room of the garage. New basement, New Electric, New Plumbing - we are very happy with the results!"

"Called Hope Plumbing for a leaking sink that the technician (Jarrod) ruled was likely due to hard water buildup. I has assumed this and mentioned we were having an issue with our Softener backing up into the basement. Even though I didn't call them to work on the Softener Jarrod quickly determined a fix for the softener flooding our basement and said a simple Air Gap drain would help prevent it from backing up. He quickly put together a quote that was reasonably priced and within a few hours fixed an issue that had been plaguing us for months. The service was fantastic and I highly recommend joining their membership program for some great benefits!"

"He quickly determined the problem and got to work. It didn't take long and he had the drain open and flowing normally. He was professional and polite. I will be using them moving forward for any plumbing issues."

"Started researching providers on Angie's List mid Feb. 2016. Contacted CD & Son Concrete and scheduled an estimate the same week for March 12, 2016.  Most of my follow up questions were placed through the Angie's list messaging portal and were quickly answered by CD & Son's office.  Phone calls were quickly returned as well, so this business scores very high in maintaining communications.  I felt the written proposal was quite reasonable based on other Angie's List reviews as well as concrete industry info on the 'net.  After meeting Dean, I got the feeling he is a man of his word, and so far he hasn't disappointed.

I asked for and received a list of driveway replacements Dean has done in my area, as well as proof of insurance with contact information. Everything checked out and I signed and returned the proposal on April 18, 2016.  With the seemingly endless Spring rains, it was impossible to piece together 3 dry days in a row so the work wasn't started until June 7.  It was a Tues. afternoon that demo of the existing sidewalk and driveway began.  The driveway demo was more challenging than expected as the 40 year old concrete was 10 to 12 inches thick so it took until dusk to get the first half of the drive removed.  Work continued Wed. morning to set the forms for that area and concrete was poured in the afternoon followed by application of the curing and sealing agent.  Soon after, demo was started on the bottom half of the drive and continued again until dusk.  Thurs. morning, demo was completed, that portion of the drive was formed and poured, and finished with a cure/seal application, while the sidewalk forms were installed.  Fri. morning, the sidewalk was poured, tooled, and pressure washed for the exposed aggregate finish, after which everyone packed up and moved offsite until Chris returned around dusk to apply the final seal coats to the walk.

The crew consisted of Dean, his son Chris, and one recently graduated young man who provided support where needed.  All contribute and help each other to keep things moving forward.  It's quickly evident that they work well together and even enjoy their work.  At the end of each day they organized their tools for the next day and gathered any trash they may have accumulated.  At the completion, they even cleaned the street where their equipment had tracked out small amounts of dirt/gravel debris during the process.  During those 4 days I saw commitment to family, to the job at hand, to each other, and even met Dean's wife one evening as they stopped by to pick up some equipment.  And as an ex-smoker, I was impressed that I never saw any of these guys light up - no cig butts in the yard or bad examples for my grandkids or neighbor's children.

Though I have never before had an opportunity to scrutinize a freshly poured driveway and/or sidewalk, I have received plenty of positive feedback from neighbors as they pass by on their daily walks.  There has been lots of interest and I've been asked by several to pass along their contact info to Dean.  Seems it has been a good experience for myself as well as the folks at CD & Son Concrete.  I would absolutely use them again."

"Jaron was prompt, knowledgeable and professional, while quoting a fair price. We hired him to install french drains, to keep water out of our basement and plan on hiring him for other excavation jobs as well."
