When they turned off the water to the toilet they could still hear water running. On further inspection they found damp sheet rock as well as water in the adjoining garage floor. Realizing that there was no way to turn off the water we immediately started calling Angie's List plumbers. The first plumber told us they did not do leak detection. I was sent to an answering service for the 2nd plumber. The third plumber has yet to return my phone call. It is now 8 hours after I made the emergency phone call to the 3rd plumber, I left 3 different phone #'s. (Really?) I was so relieved when I called Olin Plumbing and immediately got a hold of Derek . In addition Derek was on our door step in 20 minutes. On arrival he took control of the situation , and Immediately detected the leak in an exterior wall. He opened the outside wall, and then repaired the leak. His quick response and action helped us to avoid a lot of damage to our property. Thank you ! We will definitely be calling Derek for our future plumbing needs.

Well, when I left for work, the backhoe was digging the trench, and when I came home at noon the job was done. WE THOUGHT!
After cleaning up in the basement and replacing all the shelving, the next day we had the sewer overflow into our basement(had never happened before). When I called Burnaps, I was told that they replaced the sewer line up to 5 feet of the house and stopped because the airconditioner would have had to be moved and they didn't include that cost into the original bid. So, the old sewer line that we thought had been replaced was still there. (had they called either me or my husband, we would gladly have had the airconditioner moved). So we paid to have the airconditioner moved and they called the backhoe back in to do the job again. Then, believe it or not, they wanted us to pay again for the backhoe! The job was finished and I again cleaned the basement of the sewer residue, much worse than the original clean-up.
The young man who did the work, the son of the plumber, was very nice, but kept saying, "I'm sorry", and "Its been a learning experience". His father, the plumber(I think) came over twice, once to give him advice(about 15 minutes), and the second time at our request to talk about the cost of the 2nd backhoe charge. (another 15 minutes).
We finally insisted on talking to them about the bill, we had to have the deck rebuilt, a cost we had not planned on. Plus, all the dishonesty in not telling us about the work being partially done, evident when we had the sewer overflow. They finally agreed for about half of what we had ask for. It was not acceptable to us but we were so sick of the drama from this 3 month project that we agreed and paid in full just to get it over with.

Upon estimate and inspection it was determined that I had a severely bowed wall in another spot. They placed wall anchors on that wall. On the other wall that was leaking they placed lining and water proofing ot the outside and inside of the wall. Then they put dirt to help channel water and fill in low spots in the yard. In order to do this they had to take up some decking, railing and fencing. They removed and replaced all this with very high professionalism and everything looked even better than when they got there. When doing the anchors, they had to cut holes in the drywall.

Established in 1933, Olshan Foundation provides cost-effective foundation solutions to residential and commercial property owners. We proudly service homeowners in Wichita from our office in Nearby Missouri. About a quarter of the homes we visit do not require foundation repair. Services are backed by an available warranty, friendly customer support and convenient payment options. Free, no-obligation structural assessments are performed by Certified Structural Technicians. Since no two homes are alike, our Technicians carefully inspect the problems affecting your home before developing a comprehensive repair plan designed uniquely to your property. Olshan is the exclusive provider of the Cable Lock ST Plus repair system. This hybrid design combines the penetrating power of concrete with the long-term durability of steel, providing a longer, deeper more secure repair. We also offer drainage and root barriers to help prevent foundation damage. Schedule a free, no-obligation assessment now. Your home’s structural integrity depends on the strength of your foundation. It supports everything else – walls, windows, floors, doorways, roof – so when your foundation is damaged, it can cause serious problems throughout your home. Like most things in life, your foundation is subject to environmental stress. Expanding and contracting soil, excessive moisture and inadequate drainage are some of the most common threats to your home’s foundation. Over time, environmental stressors can cause a foundation to shift, crack or settle unevenly. And homeowners often miss early warning signs of foundation damage. Homeowners spend about $4 billion annually stabilizing faulty foundations, and those costs may increase as more homes are built in areas known for shifting soil. Understanding risk factors and signs of foundation problems can help you protect your most valuable asset from irreversible damage.
"Terrible service, our front was sinking due to our fireplace. We got a quote ($28,000), for their "patented" footings - enormous metal poles under each of the house supports for the front. Pretty slick snowjob, they quoted us 3 days but took 5. They dumped all the concrete they removed in the backyard without asking and left an enormous hole in the front of the house where the fireplace is. When I (5'1" femme) asked to speak to a supervisor about the delay and dumping, they sent a good old boy (300 pds, 6'2") to scream at me in my living room. No supervisor was present to verify the work and I was not permitted to watch them. They pressured me to sign the inspection form, without me inspecting anything. They are a SCAMMMM! I would only recommend Olshan as revenge."

FAQs for basement leak repair projects in Emporia, KS
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.
