Effective Basement Solutions, LLC

About us

At Effective Basement Solutions, we started with structural repairs and home lifting, helping homeowners protect the integrity of their foundations. Over time, we saw that water intrusion was often the root cause of major structural issues so we expanded into basement waterproofing. Done wrong, waterproofing can cause serious foundation movement in the future. With our background in structural integrity, we install systems the right way from the start. Our work naturally grew to include mold remediation, radon mitigation, Humidex systems, sump pump installations, and indoor air quality solutions. With over 20 years of experience in North and South Jersey and parts of New York, we’ve served everything from high rises to single family homes. Looking back, our journey from above-ground structures to basement systems feels meant to be because the safety and health of every home truly begins below

Franco and his team installed a french drain and sump pump in my basement. They worked efficiently without rushing, and Franco kept us informed throughout the process, always taking the time to answer our questions or explain the mechanisms of the project. They were always polite and did their best to work within our schedule. I would definitely recommend.

Franco and his crew were the best. We had just moved into our home and found black mold in several locations. We were extremely upset at our Home inspector and previous owners. Franco and his crew installed a French Drain and Sump pump with a non electric water supplied B/U system they also installed exterior drainage pipe on the outside of our home, and performed Mold remediation. All work was completed on time and to the agreed amount. His guys were all respectful and hardworking. I would highly recommend Franco and company. Franco keeps his word.

Please do not hire this company. Follow up service is beyond poor. I read the reviews on this site before hiring I am shocked at the way I have been treated by Franco. I have been in desperate need of service and he keeps telling me he's coming and never shows up. I have given him every opportunity to make this wrong right. I have had it. I have to call another company to reevaluate his work . Water drainage 6 inches from house he charged me again to get the water away from my house. Battery connectors done with twistie ties. After $3100 and a visit to the Dr. today I write this review. BEWARE

He called me quickly, even before i got off the website. Could come out the same day for an estimate which was great . When he came out he looked around and explained/drew me a picture of what was happening and didn't speak to me like I was a woman/idiot which any woman would appreciate. He gave me two prices and offered to break it up into manageable parts depending on what i could handle which was appreciated also. He was prompt, reliable, gave me a warranty on the installed work/pumps, work looked clean & is working well so far. I would highly recommend!
