"We bought a new home with water issues. I called multiple foundation companies to get a french drain with sump pump installed under our home. We had huge storms coming and the last one left standing water under the house with support piers sinking. We had several cracks form in the drywall, popping and creaking in the floors. Corey McGlothlan came out and looked the situation over. He and I were at the house and my wife was on the phone discussing the situation. We knew we needed to do something with storms coming but received alot of pressure from Corey to make an expensive decision. He did an 18 month no interest approval. He said we needed the french drain with a sump pump and the piers shimmed under the home. He also said their work came with a lifetime warranty and would cover further foundation damage repairs. We did agree to have them do the job as they could be out early the next week. I wanted a copy of the contract to read but he told me I would get it by email in a few days. All we had was a link to the finance company. The french drain system was installed. We had one heck of a storm come thru and it did keep the water pumped out. However, The water barrier was nasty, muddy, and not reinstalled at all properly. I called and got a help desk. They had Adam from the Lavergne office contact me. They came back out and reinstalled my vapor barrier correctly and cleaned up under the house a bit. My house was 10 months old at the time. I also had excavation work building a burn in front of the home and drainage to divert the water from the house. My issue: I have called Corey and Adam multiple times to get the shims installed, like over 20. I have tried the help desk but they cannot get me anyone from management. I cannot get them to come and finish the job. I have been forced to post this and am filing a claim with the BBB. Beware of AFS."

Basement Leak Repair questions, answered by experts

Typically, a French drain can last 30 to 40 years if it is maintained properly. The life span of a French drain depends on factors such as the quality of installation and the types of materials used. However, climate and natural disasters can affect the life span of a French drain. Regular maintenance and inspections can help prolong the drain's life span.

Basements with persistent moisture problems or flooding shouldn’t be finished until the moisture issues have been fixed. In addition, if your foundation is cracked, you have unmitigated radon levels, or you have asbestos or lead pipes, remediate the underlying problem before finishing your basement. Turning a basement into living space before fixing these issues can lead to serious health risks or structural damage. 

Several factors can impact the cost of waterproofing your basement. Some of the most common cost factors include:

  • Location

  • Square footage

  • Cause of the water leak

  • Type of foundation

  • Accessibility

  • Waterproofing method

  • Materials

  • Contractor experience and availability

  • Engineering reports, if needed

  • Structural and other repairs

  • Permits

In many cases, yes, a damp basement can be bad for your health. Not only can damp air affect your lungs, but it can promote mold growth and pest infestation. Mold spores can be dangerous to breathe in, as can waste particles from insects and rodents attracted to the moisture. Damp, moldy air can also move up into your living area. As such, it’s crucial to fix any basement moisture problems as soon as they crop up.

Methods include interior sealants, exterior excavation and waterproofing membranes, sump pump installation, and vapor barriers for encapsulation. Techniques vary based on the structure and severity of moisture issues.
