"I do not recommend this company due to poor quality of product. - Jan 2023 bought 2 patio doors, 3 slider windows. Product that was installed in May included 2 cracked slider windows and all products had wrong color on interior. All needed to be replaced. - May 2023 bought additional 19 windows. After install in Oct 2023, 13 of the 19 had noted manufacturing defects requiring replacement in January 2024. After install of these replacements in January 2024, additional 7 had noted manufacturing defects requiring replacement in April 2024. At install of these latest replacements, 5 more had noted manufacturing defects requirement replacement (which has not yet happened) - June 2024 during rainstorm noted two of the window sets had significant water leaks. Company was advised with documentation on 6.4.2024; as of today 6.8.2024 company has yet to acknowledge my request for refund so I can re-replace the windows with a different company. Additionally several of the caulk lines were obviously done by a new employee, as I had to have the contractor installing new siding re-do those lines."

We have been avid RV'rs for nearly 30 years and have owned several different types of RV's. Everything from a pickup with a topper and air mattress to a pop-up pickup camper, hard side pickup camper, travel trailer, 5th wheel and destination (park model) trailer. Discounts available for active or retired military, law enforcement, EMS and Fire Service personnel. It's our Everyday Heros Reward. We are committed to providing our customers with the best RV tank cleaning and system services possible. We take pride in our work and strive for excellence in everything we do. We are a family owned and operated business. Our main service involves using our specialized hydro jetting machine to clean the gray and black holding tanks in your RV. We essentially scrub the interior of your RV's holding tanks clean, getting them as clean as they were when the RV left the manufacturer, using 1500 PSI water (which does not damage your RV's tanks or plumbing system). Approximately two hours are needed for this operation, depending on the quantity of tanks and the seriousness of any issues discovered. The best thing about Minnesota RV Tank Cleaning is that in addition to cleaning and servicing your holding tanks, water heater tank, freshwater tank, waste system, and plumbing system, we also provide you with the knowledge and skills you need to maintain their condition.

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

You might need a permit to modify or repair any portion of your plumbing system, including drainage lines, depending on where you live. In some areas, simple replacements of existing drain lines don’t require a permit. We recommend asking your drain pipe installer or your local building department about permitting requirements. In many cases, only certified plumbers can pull plumbing permits, so you’ll usually need to leave the permit application to your professional. The fee for the permit will be passed to you on your project bill, though.

Statistics show that 98% of basements will experience some form of water damage over time. However, that doesn’t mean all basements will experience severe flooding. The best way to prevent a water-damaged basement is to keep up with home maintenance and have proper drainage installed outside your home to direct water away from the foundation. You can also consider building a flood wall around the house if you live in a flood-prone area.

No, some window wells aren’t connected to drainage systems and instead are partially filled with gravel or crushed stone. In that case, water entering the well will drip down through the stone and disperse into the soil below. Window well drains might be required in areas with heavy rainfall or expansive soil—the lack of them could lead to foundation damage without a proper drainage system.

When installing a French drain, the holes in your pipe go down. This allows water to flow from the gravel below into the pipe to be carried away from your flood-prone area. If you’re using a corrugated pipe with slots on all sides, it doesn’t matter which direction the pipe is facing.

The need for permits in drainage improvement projects depends on your location and the extent of the project. Generally, projects involving significant excavation, alterations to existing drainage systems, or those impacting public drainage systems may require permits. Check with your local building department or authorities to determine the specific permit requirements in your area before starting any drainage improvement work to ensure compliance with local regulations.
