"

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.

"Sometimes you just get lucky. We got super lucky when we hired D. Rohde to fix our A/C. Our technician Mike A. showed up with a helper/trainee, explained the estimate fees and then went to work. In less than 10 minutes he was able to identify the defective part, return to the truck for a new replacement part, and then install the new item. In under 30 minutes our main central A/C was back up and running. The second (upstairs) central air unit took another 10 minutes to diagnose and then about 40 minutes of grueling work in a super-hot attic to drain out the overflow tray, cut, blow-out the drain line, and repair the drain. Once drained, the unit is again working perfectly. It is great when a technician shows up and really is an expert. Mike A. is such an expert and also extremely friendly. Brandon, the assistant/trainee was also great and someday will make a great technician using all the knowledge learned from Mike's expert tutelage. I will recommend these guys to everyone I meet."

"I found Joe's Plumbing on Home Advisor. I needed an old oil tank removed from my crawl space. The job was done carefully and professionally. Joe saved me money too. While there they also repaired my drain waste system and fixed my low water pressure by replacing old half inch pipe with three quarter inch. I was most impressed by the easy communication, promptness, respect and courtesy of Joe and crew. He is my plumber of choice now. I have lived in my home for 33 years. Finally I have a great, reliable and reasonable plumber!"

"There aren’t enough superlatives to express how pleased I am with Scott’s work. Believe me I know how frustrating hiring any service person is. Scott was fantastic. He said he would be here at 9am and miracles of miracles he was! He said the job would take 2-3 hours and he had it done in 2.5. I had him remove and install a bathroom vanity with stone countertop, faucets and large medicine cabinet. It came out beautifully. AND he hauled away all the old stuff and the packaging from all the new stuff. It was like he was never here. As if the bathroom gods just granted me a perfect bathroom. Do yourself a favor Hire this company. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you Scott."

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

The least expensive basement waterproofing methods include grading soil away from your home, installing downspout extenders on your gutter system, and applying a waterproof paint on the interior of the foundation walls. Installing a French drain is a relatively inexpensive method if you do the work yourself, although it’s labor-intensive and can be challenging to install properly.

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.

If your basement often leaks after heavy rain, it’s probably caused by hydrostatic pressure. When the ground is saturated with water, it can put pressure on the exterior of your home’s foundation, causing cracks in the basement wall and pushing water through any existing weak spots. Over time, hydrostatic pressure can cause structural damage to your home.

A sewage ejector pump is necessary if you have any plumbing fixtures, such as a bathroom, laundry room, or sink, located below the level of your home's main sewer line. Standard plumbing relies on gravity to drain wastewater and solid waste into the municipal sewer system or a septic tank. For fixtures below this level, like those in a basement, gravity cannot move the waste upward. The ejector pump provides the force needed to pump the sewage up to the main line. Without one, wastewater from below-ground fixtures would back up, potentially causing a sewage overflow and flooding. If all of your plumbing is on the main floor or higher, gravity is sufficient and an ejector pump is not needed.

Due to the nature of basements, some level of waterproofing is necessary to prevent water from seeping in and causing damage. Some definitive signs that your basement needs waterproofing measures or needs existing waterproofing measures need to be updated include:

  • Water in your basement, including damp walls or puddles on the floor

  • Mold spots in your basement

  • Musty smells or odors

  • Warped doors or walls

  • Cracks in walls

  • Insect issues, such as cockroaches and termites
