Best french drain pros near La Vale, MD

"I hired a civil engineer, who concurred with the sump pump and drain plan and said the price was absolutely unbeatable. After the project, the customer service for follow-up was immediate and effective. This company is solid, from the team on the ground to the sales representative to uppoer management!"

"It was a big project, requiring jackhammering out a portion of the basement floor and putting in a french drain and sump pump. The crew was professional, very hardworking and kept the mess to a minimum. The crew lifting the pavement were very skilled and patient in answering our many questions about the process. Everyone did a great job and we appreciate all their help in solving our flooding problems. We would personally like to thank everyone involved; Demetrius (supervisor), James S. , Freddy, Ahmed F., Edwin B., Vince G. and Sinclair. Howard G. the field inspector promptly returned all of our calls and was very helpful in answering all of our questions."

"I had them mitigate a small foundation leak in my basement, install a better drain in my exterior basement stairwell and replace my sump pump last week. Michael was very responsive, answered all my questions and priced his work competitively. His crew worked hard and I am happy with the work to date, though it's far too early to judge how well the interior system they installed functions. The only concern is that the promised lifetime transferable warranty was not delivered when the work was done. Michael promised to drop it off soon."

"It was easy to make an appointment by phone; the pricing was based upon the size and type of the house (single family home, split level, 1800 sq ft). I understand it would have cost more if the house was taller, or less if it was a town house. The cleaners showed up on time, and had the entire job done in about 45 minutes. They used the water faucet from the front of the house to wash out the gutters and flush out the drain pipes. They picked up the gunk that washed out by hand so that it was barely noticeable. I paid by check when they were done."

"Met with a representative from Thompson's who provided a great overview of the issue, the process, and the expected outcome. Due to this comfortable, informative, and professional presentation, we opted to hire Thompson's.
The service date and time were honored, but the workers seemed to be extremely young.
They did perform the work, however, they were not neat, and as a matter of fact very messy, damaging solid workbenches, bathroom doors, and basement windows.  The also damaged the patio by spilling staining paint/glue, and damaged flowerbeds and lawns while mixing cement.
 
The actual drain itself was not evenly or neatly installed, with the mica boards being uneven and not flush against the wall. The poured cement was not smoothly laid, and in one corner, was pitched by almost six inches.
They bored a hole in the wall for the drainage pipe, but it was in a completely different location than what was agreed on or in the drawing.
The followup customer service was terrible, with many promised yet unreturned phone calls, and a lack to immediate responses to calls made (a message always seemed to have to be left.)  Calls and attempts were made to resolve quite a few of these issues with Thompson's over almost 4 months, with only frustration be developed on my side due to their lack of response or concern.
We needed to spend another $2000 with another company to clean up and resolve the mess and quite a few of the issues left/created by Thompson's. 
NOTE:  The french drain does work, and we have not had water in the basement since.

"it went well. draining seems to be clear."

"I got a call the same day as I purchased the deal. They were able to come over the same day which was nice. I had issues with some small space heaters blowing the main breaker which made absolutely no sense to me. The breaker was recently inspected by Fairfax county after a renovation that was recently done which makes me wonder how closely the county actually looked at the work (they also missed the fact that the guy didn't put a p-trap in the new bathtub drain). Jake showed up early which was nice and immediately asked if I wanted him to take his shoes off (nice gesture). He understood exactly what I was telling him- he opened up the box and immediately figured out what the issue was - stuff not being tight and too much exposed wire on one of the main hot lines. He knocked it all out in about 20 mins which saved me some money. I can think of several things that another less honest company could have pushed me to buy, but Jake just did what needed to be done. The problem I had is now gone. I told my contractor not to make these mistakes at other houses that he does. Now, I'm not sure if I should send a note to the Fairfax county asking why their inspector didn't tell my contractor to correct this. Another note - the website that they have is really nice. It is so simple, and a lot of services that they do are priced out - you can buy them right up front. I'm not sure why other companies don't make things simple like this. They are 100% digital, too. To pay for the service, I just swiped my cart on the phone and signed. There wasn't any old paper invoices where you rip off the top copy and have this nasty looking pink paper lying around the house. They sent me a text receipt and email. As a tech worker, I thought it was cool how they used square.. it's really simple and easy."
