"I am excited about the work completed by the AFS foundation crew from Mobile, Alabama! From start to finish, every step was handled with the highest professionalism and attention to detail. The team of David, Bobby, Jesus, and Logan took the time to explain the technical process in simple, clear terms, making sure I felt confident throughout the project. They also stuck to the promised timeline, finishing the installation on schedule without sacrificing quality. I also appreciate the crew’s effort to keep the worksite tidy. David, Bobby, Jesus, and Logan exceeded my expectations in every way. Their blend of technical skill, punctuality, and dedication to customer satisfaction makes them a top-tier crew. I would gladly recommend their services to anyone in need of reliable foundation repair."

"My husband and I are having our home built for our property and need a Septic Tank installed.  This will be our first experience with such a system as we have always lived within city limits that provided City Sewer Service.  I found Jerry Thigpen Septic Tank Svc in an online search.  I called and left a message on the answering machine at noon and received a call back within 35 minutes.  Spoke to Mr and Mrs Thigpen, they both were very professional and pleasant to speak to.  Very informative as to what steps we need to do before he can give us an estimate for a new system.  Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Thigpen we look forward to doing business with you.
Will do a reveiw followup once services are rendered.

"It went fine.  I had one situation where they put vent on the top of the roof but on backwards and they replaced it. Overall, they did a good job cleaning it but that was a little reckless, I thought, a little careless. They did a good job cleaning the lint out but the only problem I had was the way they put the vent back on. "

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

A sewage ejector pump is necessary if you have any plumbing fixtures, such as a bathroom, laundry room, or sink, located below the level of your home's main sewer line. Standard plumbing relies on gravity to move wastewater and solid waste to the municipal sewer or septic tank. However, for fixtures located below grade (e.g., in a basement), gravity is not sufficient.

The purpose of a sewage ejector pump is to actively pump this wastewater and solid waste upward into the main sewer line. Without an ejector pump in this situation, wastewater would have no way to exit and would eventually back up, causing a sewage overflow or flooding in your basement. If all of your home's plumbing is on the main floor or higher, gravity can handle the drainage, and an ejector pump is not needed.

The least expensive basement waterproofing methods include grading soil away from your home, installing downspout extenders on your gutter system, and applying a waterproof paint on the interior of the foundation walls. Installing a French drain is a relatively inexpensive method if you do the work yourself, although it’s labor-intensive and can be challenging to install properly.

Yes, it is generally unhealthy and can be dangerous to live in a damp basement. The damp air can negatively affect your breathing and lungs, and the moisture promotes mold growth and pest infestations. Inhaling mold spores or waste particles from insects and rodents attracted to the moisture can be hazardous. This damp, moldy air can also circulate into your main living area. It is crucial to resolve any moisture problems and implement preventative measures before using your basement as a living space.

A sewage ejector pump is necessary if you have any plumbing fixtures, such as a bathroom, laundry room, or sink, located below the level of your home's main sewer line. Standard plumbing relies on gravity to drain wastewater and solid waste into the municipal sewer system or a septic tank. For fixtures below this level, like those in a basement, gravity cannot move the waste upward. The ejector pump provides the force needed to pump the sewage up to the main line. Without one, wastewater from below-ground fixtures would back up, potentially causing a sewage overflow and flooding. If all of your plumbing is on the main floor or higher, gravity is sufficient and an ejector pump is not needed.

Whether to waterproof your basement from the interior or exterior depends on several factors, including your budget.

Exterior waterproofing is generally considered the superior method because it stops water at the source, preventing it from seeping into and damaging your basement walls. This approach offers the most protection, making it ideal if you use your basement for storage.

By contrast, interior waterproofing is often less expensive and requires less labor because the area is more accessible.

For maximum protection against water leakage and moisture, applying waterproofing measures to both the inside and outside is the best solution. However, if you must choose only one, stopping water from the outside is the most effective approach to preserve your foundation and prevent damage.
