"Our Waterproofing system was installed 5 years ago. The exterior drain oipe from the sump pump needed to be replaced. The crew, Chris and Will, showed up on time, knew what needed to be done and completed the job quickly and efficiently. We were very satisfied with the job."

"Neverwet truly stands by their lifetime transferable warranty! I purchased my home last summer. The previous owners had installed the Neverwet basement system. This winter I experienced drainage issues in my front yard. I called Neverwet and spoke with Michele who was very pleasant and understanding. Kevin, one of the owners promptly came over to evaluate the situation. He determined the drain line from the sump pump needed to be extended and connected to the storm sewer. Kevin obtained the necessary permits from the Village and his crew (Jordan and Stirlling perform the work at no additional cost. I am very appreciative of the quick response and excellent customer service from start to finish of the project. I highly recommend NeverWet. They stand behind their warranty and do quality work. You will not be disappointed. Thank you NeverWet."

"I recently purchased a home, and after almost 2 years, I discovered there was a hidden mold problem causing me health problems.  Healthy Spaces was one of three companies I called to help locate and treat the problem as soon as possible.  Of the three companies, Healthy Spaces gave me the most intuitive and comprehensive plan of attack and Mark was amazingly thorough and walked me through his plan so that I completely understood the problem and proposed treatment.  I am so glad I went with his company.  They fit me into their busy schedule, came on time and worked without stopping for a whole day.  He and his assistant were personable, knowledgeable, efficient and tidy.  The mold they found when removing two walls of new paneling was disgusting but they had it removed quickly and applied several treatments to that area and also to my laundry and even the ceilings and sump pump areas.  Additionally, Mark made a suggestion about controlling the condensation issue which probably saved me another $5,000 or more.  I am a very happy customer and would highly recommend Healthy Spaces.

"They took out a load bearing wall and installed a beam. I wanted to open up a room to open the kitchen. They were terrific, reliable, and I know it was done 100% right. I have not had any problems with it since and it has been 5 years."

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

There are a couple of things you can do to help prevent your French drain grate from clogging. First, keep yard debris clear so it doesn’t wash into the drain and clog the grate. You can also install a screen or filter over the grate to prevent large pieces of debris from entering the access point.

Knowing the signs can alert you to a clogged drain line. Clogs cause slow drainage or cause no drainage (if there’s a complete blockage). You may also notice foul odors, gurgling noises, water backing up in other appliances on the same line, or a poorly flushing toilet. If you experience any of these issues and think your line might be clogged, call a plumber.

If the drain is frozen, the pipes connecting to the washing machine are likely frozen. If the hot water trick doesn’t also unfreeze the washing machine pipes, you can gently apply heat with a hair dryer on the lowest setting. Start at the end of the pipe closest to the faucet to prevent pressure from building in the pipes, and make sure the faucet is open to drain the water as it melts.

Clearing typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on the blockage size and location.

You can unclog an AC drain line for free if you already have these household ingredients: water, vinegar, and rags. Alternatively, if you’d rather not deal with the mess, you can hire a pro to clear your drain line. If you go that route, an HVAC service call costs between $100 and $250.
