Get matched with top french drain pros in Ballwin, MO

"I called to have someone look at my basement drain backing up. The first person quickly diagnosed the issue but didn’t have the camera needed to look at the line. This was a bit annoying since I was very clear in describing the problem before he came out. However, another guy came out first thing in the morning and did a great job diagnosing the issue and took the time to show me and explain his assessment, along with options. They charge $65 to come out for diagnosis. My total for over an hour of camera work on two lines from inside the house and diagnosing the issue was $326. They were both professional, punctual, and didn’t waste time. The second person was honest in telling me not to try something that I think other plumbers would have charged for. John M was a pro and I appreciated his service. I’d use them again."

"Very professional. Cleaned up everything no mess left behind. I thought my new sink that I had installed was clogged not draining right but ended up just being the stopper. He also put a plate around the pipe to make it look better."

"Sludgebusters is and will be the only company I hire to fix my drain issues. I've had the best luck with sludgebusters."

"Hired them for the outside part of my job. Initial 2 hr window for arrival passed. Called contact number. Was offered later appoint that same day-unable to stay around. Rescheduled within the week for 3-5 pm. Text "on the way" at 4:30 PM. No show at 5:15 pm. Called, told their schedule was 5-7 pm. Showed up about 5:30 pm. Video outside drain took all of 15 min for about $200 AND close to 5 hr of my waiting time over 2 different day."

"This is a good company to deal with. James, the owner, was out within one hour to diagnose our problem. The next morning the technicians, Brian and Josh were out to take care of our drain issues. Brian made a point of showing me the camera footage of the main drain. The did a great job on the main and two other drains. They also cleaned up very well when they were done. Brian also noticed an issue with our bathtub stopper and fixed it without an extra charge. The pricing was transparent. They have a nice email notice system and called when they were on the way. The three men I worked with were all very professional and easy to deal with. I would not hesitate to use them again. Phil Lykens"

"We had a (finished) basement that was leaking water during heavy rain. I solicited bids from four different companies, all of which proposed to do basically the same thing. Atlas was not only the cheapest, but they also said they could do it without tearing out the drywall or installing a sump pump (they saddled the drain system onto the main sewer line and added a backflow valve -- in the city, the waste and storm sewers are combined). Mike, the owner, was very friendly and James, the team leader, was very professional and helpful. The basement has gone a year -- including through the torrential downpours of December 2015 -- without leaking. There was some persistent leaking around the egress window. They had installed a drain pipe in the bottom of it and tied it into the rest of the perimeter drain system. It has leaked a little bit, and Atlas has come out 4 different times before concluding that the rain is hitting the shoddily-installed window and leaking in. I like knowing how things work, so Mike showed me exactly what was happening and -- despite my initial uncertainty -- I'm convinced it is the window. But since they happily came out repeatedly to check out and test the issue, I'm convinced that they'll honor their 20-year warranty."

"Plumber was on time, polite, and he worked quickly. Everything seems to be repaired. Price seems to be high for time, material and labor involved."

"Scott was our technician and he did a great job. He was super friendly and went the extra mile for us. The drain services we needed were not typical but he was able to complete them within the estimate that he gave us in terms of time and money. We are planning to have more work done by him if our budget permits, and he will be our first call for any issues going forward."
