Mark, a former Maytag repairman, is a cheeful, efficient person. His price is much less than the $300 warranty Maytag offered after much back and forth. Plus I would've had to pay for a visit anyway. I can't believe a three-year old fridge would leak in the first place., so I'd better put Mark on speed dial!

Three years later, my $8000 roof still leaks, every time it rains. Despite numerous visits from home depot people, who tell me that it doesn't leak. I have just spoken (again) to someone who tells me that they will fix it. Shingles fall off of the roof, it is buckled. I have had no fewer than 6 different people look at it and tell me that it doesn't even appear to be a professional job (handy men, and men who are handy).
It went very well. Rene was highly professional and responsive—a really nice person. The job was not straightforward because of several issues that came up as he worked on the project, including water that was leaking from under the door into the basement, but he kept at it and found...
I contacted Mark because our 3-year old fridge was leaking a fairly large puddle about once a week. All efforts to fix it ourselves didn't work. Mark answered the phone on the first call and we arranged an appointment. He showed up exactly on time, found the problem immediately and told me he...

"Signed contract on May 8 for deck build.On May 12 rep came to my office to collect deposit of apprx $13,000. He said project team meeting on Wed & would update me then on start date etc. On Fri May 16 I had to reach out to him. He wrote the team had met & materials were ordered. An hour later he wrote back that he was misinformed & that his boss was going to call me next week. Despite this, dep check cashed. On Mon 5. 20 rep wrote back that they had forgotten certain costs & to proceed it would be $8,000 more. Not a typo. $8,000 more. No apology. Ridiculous, contract rescinded. I wrote that he could return my deposit at my office just as he had collected it. On Wednesday the 21st I got a text from "Tom," presumably the owner/boss, saying he would "drop a check in the mail" to my address. Today is May 30th, Friday, and still no check. Check at a minimum should have been overnighted. They owe me interest not to mention the deposit to hire a contractor who will honor contract. Bad."

Basement Leak Repair questions, answered by experts
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.
When considering finishing your basement, take into account a few pros and cons:
Pros
Can increase the value of your home
Separate space from the rest of the house
Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style
Increase the amount of living space in your home
Cons
May not regain enough value to cover the cost of finishing
Lack of natural light if it’s below ground level
Moisture or flooding can cause costly damage
Installing plumbing and electrical can be messy and costly
External pressure on the basement wall can cause it to bow inward. Soil, heavy with water saturation, is commonly the main culprit. The soil exerts immense pressure on the wall, causing it to fail, at least partially. This is known as hydrostatic pressure—these situations can occur after rainfall or simply due to regular groundwater presence and may be temporary or more permanent.
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.
The best basement waterproofing method depends on the issue you’re trying to solve. For example, if you have standing water on your basement floor, a floor drain or sump pump might be your best solution. Or, if you have standing water around your foundation, installing a drainage system that protects your basement and foundation might be better.
