"Bob and his crew were great! They installed a sump pump and drain in a part of my basement that had water for the chest time in 25 years. They also checked and repaired all my gutter leaders to make sure any clogs could be easily accessed. I highly recommend them!"

"Had basement french drains installed. Communication after the inspection/estimate was excellent. Gave me a start day and they arrived on time to get the job started. They protected my hardwood floors and thoroughly cleaned the floor once they were done. Time will tell if There are any problems with the drains."

"When we purchased our home a year and half ago, the crawl space in our home was in pretty bad shape. It was poorly insulated, was retaining higher humidity and full of debris from the previous owner. As the following year progressed, we started getting a little water from time to time due to heavy rains. During this time my wife and I realized it was time to do something about it. Last October 2021, I started getting quotes from various local basement contractors, Basement Guru's was one of them. When I called Basement Guru's, they responded quickly and were able to set up a consultation in a matter of days. Dan Kelly (Proprietor) came out to my home and conducted a vigorous evaluation of my crawlspace. While interacting with Dan, he took the time to really explain the situation in my crawlspace and together we created a plan of action that I felt comfortable with. Additionally, Dan was extremely competitive in his pricing when compared to other quotes. Within a couple of days, my wife and I agreed to the terms and went forward with Basement Guru's. Due to high demand, Dan's team started about a month later but they were swift and had the job done in only two days. I was extremely impressed with how fast Basement Guru's worked and attacked the project. In the end, we had all debris removed, a French Drain installed, Sum Pump, sprayed our floor joists with an anti-microbial, insulation installed between the floor joists, rebuilt a wall dividing a room, Regrouted, Parged foundation pillars, installed a vapor barrier and roughcasted my stone foundation walls. Additionally, we had a dehumidifier installed. As of February 2022, our crawlspace has been dry and maintaining good humidity levels. In the end, the only negative we had during the project was was a small clean up issue. After addressing this problem with Dan, he was quick to respond and compensated the clean up costs. I would highly recommend Basement Guru’s for all your basement and crawl space needs!"

"I had a great experience with this company. They came out to my house and not only replaced the pipe that was cracked, provided recommendations to prevent this from happening again and also recommended a different valve that has a bleeder on it so that we can drain the pipe that wasy as well. They had the valve with them so they were able to complete the job in 1 visit. Very nice people and I would definitely call them back for any future plumbing needs."

"I used this company first to install a dehumidifier and then a sump pump. Prices were reasonable and payment plan option available. My basement is now fully waterproof. The excellent customer service is polite and responds in a reasonable time. Awesome company!!!"

"We have worked with Quality First Basement for 20 years. First job was the triple sump pump which has been excellent. Next was the refinishing of our basement. Another superb product and experience. Today we had new flooring installed. Once again, the product and workers were excellent! They were on time and so respectful. The floor is so attractive. This is a company that has only gotten better over the years! I highly recommend it! Rachel Padian"

"Andrew was professional and really did a great job with the install. He was only a text away for any questions and followed thru with timelines for when we will receive the blinds and when he was going to be able to install them."

Foundation Drain Installation FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, the air from a damp basement can travel up into your living area through a process called the stack effect, so moisture, mold spores, and other debris in your basement air can all decrease your indoor air quality on your main floors. Additionally, damp basements can promote the rotting of building materials, which can damage flooring, insulation, and framing on your first floor in addition to materials in the basement.

Yes, many people choose to bury their sump pump discharge pipes. When you leave the pipe visible in your yard, you might trip over it or accidentally damage it with your lawn mower. Plus, from an aesthetic perspective, hiding the discharge line underground looks nicer than leaving it out in the open. Before burying a sump pump pipe, review your local building codes to make sure your installation is compliant.

A sump pump should be placed at least three feet deep in a pit. The rim of the sump pump basin should be level with your basement floor. If you find your pit is too deep, you can fill the bottom with gravel until the rim of the sump pump is flush with the floor.

The difference between an ejector pump and a sump pump lies in their purpose and design—an ejector pump functions to remove liquid gray water and soft solid sewage waste from your home. If you have a laundry room or bathroom in your basement, an ejector pump for your sewage tank prevents sewage from backing up in your washing machine or bathroom’s drains.

A sump pump is designed to remove excess groundwater that may enter your home, either due to flooding or periods of heavy rain.

Some sump pumps are powered by water rather than electricity. Water-powered sump pumps generally use one gallon of city water to pump out two gallons of water from its basin. Therefore, if you're looking at a potential 10,000-gallon flood, your sump pump will need to use 5,000 gallons of city water to prevent it.
