"The owner stopped out to provide me a quote for the work to be done, he was very knowledgable and professional.

Technician went in my basement and told me I needed a new sump pump. Cellino is trying to get as much money from me as they can, without finishing their repair work. Never again. Horrible customer service and technicians have absolutely no idea what they are doing."

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Using filter fabric is highly recommended because it helps prevent debris and sediment from clogging the drain. It’s best to use a non-woven geotextile landscape fabric for your French drain because it is designed to allow water to flow through but not soil particles and other debris. It’s durable and long-lasting, which is why it’s the top choice for French drains.

If you are dealing with shallow water issues, a French drain may be used with rocks and no pipe. However, for areas that experience large amounts of water or heavy rainfall, you should use a corrugated or PVC pipe in the French drain. The pipe helps redirect and distribute the water effectively to another area, which can help prevent pooling water in your lawn and around your home.

Poor gutter drainage can cause sagging gutters, roof damage, mold, mildew, rot, basement flooding, and foundation cracks. With gutter replacement costs possible for just $500, getting the right system can save you thousands in repairs down the road.

Most driveway repair contractors can excavate, inspect, and repair smaller culverts. However, you should hire a culvert expert for more complex projects, especially if a full culvert replacement is required. A company specializing in culvert repair and construction can also spare you the hassle of hiring multiple contractors yourself. For example, in some cases, you may need a paving company to repave after the culvert repair is complete. But by working with a specialty contractor, they can take project management off your plate.

Water damage in your home’s foundation is gradual, often beginning with small cracks that let water seep in. Over time, this weakens the foundation, which then allows in more water, causing significant structural damage. This process can take months or years to destroy your foundation, and the repairs can be very costly. Have your foundation inspected regularly to prevent significant damage.
