"Water Solutions installed an interior drain tile system around our full basement and installed a double sump pump system with a battery backup. After the recent storms our basement remained totally dry. I definitely recommend them."
"Had an old wooden retaining wall replace with block. Price was great and wall looks awesome! The workers were friendly and professional. Helped me out with a few extras. I think I didn’t explain one part of what I wanted very well. They came back out and made sure I was satisfied. I am now looking at another project for them since that one went so well. They were always quick to respond and we got it scheduled and completed way faster than expected even with a couple rain days."
"Advantage Concrete always does a fantastic job. Cuco preps the area with precision. They also clean up really nicely. We’ve been utilizing their services for a few years now. Always reliable and responsive"

"The only reason this company gets an overall grade of C and not an F is because they are prompt and professional with emails, phone calls and showing up on time. We contacted this company (1 of 3 companies) to help us assess why we were having water issues in our basement, mostly in one concentrated area where our furnace, water heater and water softener are located. Long story short, the sales person assessed that we needed a very expensive sump pump. He also tried to sell us every other thing imaginable related to repairing basement water issues. By the time his bid was done, it was sitting at $17,000! He was very professional and took the time to look around in the basement and had an impeccable computer presentation but we were shocked at the upsell. Since then, we've had 2 other consultations with the 3rd one being today. When we told today's salesman about our issues, he said he had really good news for us. He said the water issues we were having was more than likely a clogged floor drain. So he asked if he could turn on the water softener (which is normally programmed to run at night), and we said sure. Once he turned it on, the floor drain began to overflow. He asked us to watch it through it's cycle which takes about an hour. He left and sure enough, after about 45 minutes, I heard it at it's loudest point and went down to find water all over the floor in that area. So what will thankfully only cost us a minimal amount could have cost us thousands of dollars had we went with Thrasher."
Promptly returned my first call to provide the estimate. He beat the other companies called right off the bat. Provided a clear concise estimate and full explanation of work needed to be done. Included the discount for using Angie's List and provided a no excuse 100% satisfaction guarantee.
Called in advance to schedule the actual day of work and showed up promptly. He and his crew got right to work and was no nonsense. Once the job was done he pointed out that the door didn't seal correctly. We used a level to assure that the new surface was indeed level. It was obvious that the old garage door was probably warped which was indeed the case and I suspected as such. It was clear I really did need to get a new door along with addressing the settling issue of the concrete floor.
Rosendo promised that when the new door is installed that if for some reason it doesn't seal correctly according to the door installer he will come back and do whatever he needs to do to the floor to get a proper seal.
Folks, I don't know how you can beat that for quality customer service. It is quite obvious to me that Rosendo wants to be sure his customers are completely satisfied. Combine that with a timely estimate for service, follow up, quality work and a no questions asked satisfaction approach...that is what America used to be known for.
I have already given him two larger concrete projects going forward that we want done before the end of the year. That's my review for P&R Concrete in Lincoln. Glad to know we have someone we can trust to handle our concrete projects!
"Customer service and project ideas were great! They were flexible with pricing and not restrictive on overall project ideas (I came up with an idea to combine two separate pipes into one french drain system, which they were more than willing to do) in order for me to save on cost. I definitely recommend Ram Jack of Omaha!"
Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts
Gravity can make it difficult to make plumbing work in a garage if your plumbing is lower than your drainage point. Fortunately, there are ways to create drainage when adding a bathroom to a sunken garage. Plumbers will recommend using an upflush system that discharges into a pump from the back of the toilet.
DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures proper drainage and reliability.
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.
Sump pumps prevent basement flooding, reduce humidity, and protect against water damage.
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.
