"

We've lived in this (55 year old) house for the past 12 years, and we've always had to deal with a periodic water problem in the basement. and wet weather exacerbates the problem. A few months ago things became much worse when our poured cement foundation developed three leaks, allowing water to flow freely into the basement. I called in four or five contractors to recommend a solution, and I was most impressed by Adirondack's analysis, which actually called for less work than most of the others (and of course, less money). The other contractors all insisted that a floortile system be installed to direct water into a new sump system, but Adirondack felt that our existing French drain would serve that purpose. They installed their "Super Sump" system, piped outdoors into a bubble pot. Repairing the wall cracks wasn't possible due to the deteriorated condition of the cement, so they recommended BrightWall panels, which served two purposes: they cover the ugly walls (and brighten the basement) and force any leaking water directly below into the French drain.  I've deliberately waited until now (six weeks later) to write this review because I wanted to get an idea of how their system would work. I'm happy to say that the system has worked beautifully.

I'm very happy with Adirondack. They were very professional to deal with, their estimator was experienced and didn't try to sell me the moon, and their work crew and job site supervisor were great.

"I was at a loss to why my shower was leaking into my living room.. previous plumber said I needed a complete shower replacement.. Boss crew came in next day of being called and found it was my pipes not the shower itself..they were very nice,fast, and showed me every step along the way.. it was a little steeper in price then expected but worth the value of work done."

"My initial interactions with Delanson Gardens were all extremely positive. Responses were prompt, the estimate went well (though I did find it odd that no measurements were taken), a time was scheduled, the price was reasonable, and they showed up on time. Everything continued to go great up until the day the work was actually performed. That morning, I walked them through the yard to point out problematic areas and to have a refresher on what work was actually to be done. I left them to it, and went to work myself. When I arrived home, to my dismay roughly a little over half of the work that I was expecting to be performed was finished. I called the contractor to ask if they just needed to come back the next day, but was told that the work was finished. This is where things went south. I was treated with extreme hostility on the phone and could barely even get a word in. I told them I would send pictures of the areas that I expected to be completed that were skipped, and from there communication switched to email/text. I took a bunch of pictures from my yard and annotated them, circling in red all of the areas that were missed. The contractor eventually agreed to return the next day to take a look. The next day, the contractor did more work, and again decided to do only roughly half of what was circled on the pictures I sent. After many nasty emails and texts, in the end the contractor refused to finish the rest of the work, so I refused to pay full price. I deducted 10% off of the bill, paid it, and my fiance and I finished the remaining work ourselves. It's been nearly 2 months since this all happened. I wish that I could say that the grass that was planted by Delanson Gardens was coming in beautifully, but unfortunately that's not true. Some of the areas came in beautifully, but others aren't coming in well at all despite being watered the same amount as the areas that are coming in well. I do recognize that I chose to have grass planted at a poor time of year (July), and I'm sure that's part of the problem, but it's frustrating that even after everything, I still am not happy with how my lawn looks and will have to continue working on it myself. If you wish to hire Delanson Gardens, then I think you will have an ok experience provided you make sure that the contract is extremely explicit about what work is to be completed. A large part of my problem stemmed from the fact that the contract was worded in an extremely vague way that supported both my POV and the contractor's depending on how you read it. My mistake was giving them the benefit of the doubt with the contract wording based on how well the initial series of interactions went. As long as you don't make that mistake, then you should never have to deal with the problems that I did, and your experience should be a lot better as a result."

"I highly recommend G & G Landscape Design! They removed several very tall pine trees, cleared out overgrown bushes, and installed a beautiful wooden fence on my property. From start to finish, their communication was excellent—they kept me informed throughout the entire process and were always quick to answer questions. The crew was professional, courteous, and clearly took pride in their work. The tree and brush removal was completed efficiently, and the fence installation exceeded my expectations. The quality of workmanship is outstanding, and the finished project has completely transformed my yard. If you’re looking for a company with exceptional customer service, great communication, and high-quality work, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. I’m extremely happy with the results!"

"It’s been 5 months since Todd and his crew encapsulated my crawl space but I wanted to wait to give a comprehensive review of their services and the outcome of their work. The short answer is: I’m thrilled! Here’s the story: Last summer I bought a small home which has a crawlspace. As soon as the weather turned humid I noticed a distinctly musty/earthy odor. When I had central air installed, all it did was exacerbate the situation by blowing the air from the crawlspace all over the house. To say I was distressed is an understatement. I wasn’t sure encapsulation was the answer but after calling around and doing some online research there didn’t seem to be any other obvious solutions. While I had built one new house (full basement) and gut renovated another (slab foundation) I found myself in new territory with an older home (60s) and a crawlspace. Doug came in and did a consultation. I had a lot of questions and deep dove the technical details. I’m sure it was trying for both Doug and Todd, but every question I had was answered promptly and thoroughly (something other companies failed to do). I decided to go for a full encapsulation solution with a commercial humidifier, drain, and some underlayment in particularly rough areas. Todd (and his assistant Kyle) did outstanding work and every unexpected issue they encountered was handled quickly and professionally. When they found rotting wood forms that were left from when the concrete supports were poured, they pulled them out. When they found some rough areas of construction debris around the perimeter, they cleaned that out. And when Todd found some minor seepage in the corner of the crawlspace that he traced it to the outside where a downpipe was punctured and draining too close to the house, he went and bought some new downpipe and repaired it--charging me just for the materials. To say that these guys went above and beyond is an understatement. Any homeowner knows that feeling of having made a horrible mistake and I wasn’t sure the crawlspace issue could be fixed. Not only did Todd and his crew do an amazing job but they put me at ease throughout the process. They were punctual, tidy, thorough and just generally great to work with. I couldn’t recommend them more highly! (Now if only I could find other contractors who are just as good…) P.S. The other reason I waited so long to write a review is that in my particular situation, there is little separation between the air of the crawl space and the rest of my small house. So after it was first encapsulated, there was a strong smell of… well kind of a mix between plastic and dryer sheets. It was not terribly unpleasant but distinct and noticeable (and I’m very sensitive to smells). If anyone else experiences this, I recommend buying a large fan for the crawlspace and using it periodically to move the air from the crawlspace out of the house and move fresh air in. (I bought a cheap contractor fan that pivots upwards and put it on a smart home remote). Over the course of a few months it dissipated and I’m thrilled to report that I don’t notice it at all now."

Drain Pipe Installation questions, answered by experts

It is safe to flush small amounts of bleach down the toilet. Don’t flush more than ¼ cup of bleach. Instead, consider diluting it and pouring it down the sink drain.

To get rid of a sewer smell in your crawl space, you’ll have to find the source of the problem. If it has to do with your sewer lines, then repairing the line will help. You may need to make other repairs, like fixing your sump pump or encapsulating your crawl space to reduce moisture. After you make the repair, depending on the issue, you may still need to clean out your crawl space to get rid of the stink.

If you try a drain snake and various DIY methods for unclogging drains to no avail, bring in a professional plumber to assess the situation. Also, if multiple drains in your home are backing up or you smell sewage, a visit from a plumber is best. You can expect your drain cleaning costs to fall around $250, and this can include an assessment of what’s caught in your plumbing and if there’s a larger, underlying problem. You should also consider calling a pro if you need to snake a toilet, as DIYing this could lead to a cracked fixture.

Bleach is generally not recommended for your shower drains. Although diluted bleach can technically help clean your drain, it will not unclog your pipes. In fact, bleach can harm your plumbing system because it’s so powerful. The bleach can change the color of your sink and even corrode metal pipes and fittings.

Often, people reach for bleach because it's already in their house. But it's worth getting a plunger or a drain snake for the job instead. It'll be a lot less money to buy a new plunger than to pay a plumber to repair or replace damaged pipes.

The best drain cleaners are biodegradable ones or a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. Strong, caustic chemicals may seem appealing with promises of unclogging your drain quickly, but liquid drain cleaners can cause damage to your pipes over time. Consider making your own drain cleaner with baking soda and vinegar.
