"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"

"We did a lot of research prior to hiring Thrasher and we were not disappointed. Frankly I had been in denial (and fear) about the work I knew we needed done on our Midtown Omaha home because I was so concerned about the cost and impact on our brick Tudor. We had a crack in the brick near our garage and our basement had been leaking for a number of years with hard rains. From the start of the process, Thrasher was outstanding in terms of communication and education about what they do. Before we met with our Systems Design Specialist, Anthony, we had received e-mails and calls to confirm the date, along with a packet of educational materials about home foundations and waterproofing. When Anthony came to our home, he was very professional and performed a full inspection about our concerns. He prepared an estimate and we selected what was best for us following a thorough review of options he presented. The foundation work was completed first in ONE day. The basement waterproofing was completed the next week over a two-day time frame. The workers were very professional and arrived at the time they arranged with us. In regard to the basement waterproofing, we discovered one small issue. They came out immediately to correct this and all has been worked wonderfully since. We are very pleased with their work and commitment to customer service. Highly recommend Thrasher to anyone considering foundation or waterproofing work."
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
Waterproofing or encapsulating protects against moisture, preventing mold growth and structural damage. These services also enhance energy efficiency and improve air quality by keeping humidity levels in check.
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.
Most people consider a French drain to be one of the most effective solutions for foundation leaks, but it’s not always a standalone solution. French drains will help keep water away from your foundation to reduce the risk of leaking and structural damage from soil expansion, but depending on your foundation type and location, you might need other systems or techniques—like soil gradation and gutter and leader installation—to resolve the underlying problem.
Yes, it’s possible to install a sewage ejector pump outside rather than in a basement. However, there may be some extra steps involved, including running pipes from the inside to the outside of your home and digging (and re-filling) a hole for the basin. If you aren’t comfortable with this type of work, contact a plumbing pro to handle it for you.
Test regularly, clean the pump, and inspect the discharge line to ensure efficient operation.
