"Tim, the owner was friendly and he helped us initially pick out the colors. He told us there were roughly ten jobs ahead of us on the listing, and we were ok with that. His crew was nice and helped make the experience good overall. The only side note being that there was some confusion on fascia color which we had picked out. Even so, the issue was corrected and the painting and stain on the posts looks great.

"Beau Jardin Landscaping came to my home for the initial consultation (which was no charge), and I walked them through what I had in mind for the front yard and side of the house. They took pictures of the flower beds while they were there and within a couple of days I had an emailed estimate with computer generated pictures of their vision of what the flower bed would look like with the addition of plants and flowers- I was very impressed with this! I had originally considered just clearing and mulching the flower bed, but was able to see what the finished product would like and decided to have the entire bed redone with plants as well.  
They are very good about responding to questions and text messages and I knew when to expect them- and they worked around my difficult work schedule.
I am very pleased with their work! They have come back since the planting to check on the mulch and spray the beds for weeds. What I liked best is that they selected plants and flowers based on what they thought I would like after talking with me and seeing what I had in mind and they did a great job of this! I would definitely use this service again in the future.

"We recently contracted John DeAngelo and 225 House Painting to remodel the exterior of our home.  We needed a complete exterior paint job, repairs to the wood siding, new columns under the car port, new exterior storage room doors, and two interior ceilings painted.
John came to our house to give us a free estimate.  The next day, he sent us a very detailed contract that not only listed all the work to be done, it clearly explained his warranty and work ethics.  We spoke on the phone and through email several times to work out the details.  John always responded within half a day and was easy to talk to.
John offered help in choosing our exterior paint colors and explained the different types of paint we could use.   He repeatedly went the extra mile to take care of unexpected issues that came up.  We decided that we also wanted the concrete porch and walkways sealed.  John not only arranged this on short notice for a reasonable price, he even brought over color samples for us to look at.
His crew always arrived early and worked hard throughout the day.  They were very detail oriented and did not cut corners.  They were also very polite and helpful.
Our house literally looks 20 years newer.  The results were much better than we had expected.  We?re proud of our house and the neighbors like the new look, too.

Foundation Drain Installation FAQs, answered by experts

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

A small sump pump running infrequently uses an average of 10 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per month. The average cost for electricity is $0.171 per kWh. The size and use frequency affect how much electricity it uses. Sump pumps average one-third to one horsepower (hp) motors. One hp is equal to 745.7 watts. Watts multiplied by the time your pump is running divided by 1,000 equals your average kWh. Multiply kWh by your average cost of electricity. In areas with high rain or a marsh basin, the average cost can be as high as $15-$25 a month.

Thankfully, you do have a few sump pump backup options in case it fails. One option is a battery-powered backup sump pump. Another option is using a portable backup generator as a power supply for your sump pump. Unlike a battery-powered backup which has limited power, a generator can run around the clock for as long as you need it. 

Or you can opt for a water-powered backup pump, which uses your home’s water supply as a source of power. However, this may not be the best option if you find your house frequently has low water pressure.

Pooling or standing water in your basement should be cause for alarm and action. This indicates that there is a leak or a drainage issue, and until you repair the root of the problem, the situation will only happen again or grow in severity. It’s important to deal with water damage as soon as it occurs.

Installing a sump pump takes a bit of know-how, but it is possible to do it yourself. You’ll need to familiarize yourself with details like where sump pump water goes to avoid creating new flooding risks. If you’re doing the work yourself, it’s recommended to bring in a pro for a quick inspection afterward so you can be sure your home is protected from any water damage concerns.
