"It was a complex project. They were very careful with their procedures and raised sunken concrete sections next to the house and around a pool to allow for drainage. They filled the major cracks. They were courteous and on-time over several days. After many years the water in the basement problem has been resolved."

"Serena Staats went completely out of her way to help get this job planned. During all the their hard work, Serena, Bo, Nigel Staats and Noah were all very professional and very down to earth. They all have incredible work ethic. They were hired to fix our cracking foundation. We had two cracks. One was more severe than the other. For them to get to the cracks they had to take out our old concrete patio and dig down to the footing. They fixed the cracks inside and out, and then put in a new concrete patio. They filled in three basement windows, replaced two other basement windows, installed two window wells, installed drainage pipes for gutter run off and also added fill around the foundation to create a positive grade or slope so that water runs away from our foundation. They did great work. We will definitely hire them again for any future concrete needs."

"Having to go through water problems in a basement is stressful but I am so glad I went with this company. Every person I interacted with was competent and professional. Larry was my first point of contact and he was incredibly knowledgeable and contacted me regularly to check in. I had scheduled multiple quotes but Larry sold me instantly because of his knowledgeable and straightforward communication. Todd, the owner, was so kind and you can tell how thorough he is about the work he does. He took the time to explain things to me and even catch things outside their job scope to make me aware of. He was incredibly fair with the pricing of the job. Nick and Dave were the two I interacted with the most because they did a majority of the labor. They were the best. They were respectful and knowledgeable. They took a lot of time to keep me updated and offer guidance for the long term care of my home. Having them working in my home never felt inconvenient. I could not have been more pleased with them or their work. I would highly recommend this company and the team they have assembled. Thank you for saving my home!"

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.

If you're removing ivy as part of an effort to tidy up your yard, consider contacting a local yard cleanup company so that they can help you remove other debris, like clippings and branches. Or, if you’ve opted to hire a junk removal service, consider what other areas of the home you can clean out to get your money’s worth from the trash pick up.

Although waterproofing your basement may not directly increase the value of your home, it will protect the value you already have by preventing water damage. A basement without any signs of water will be more appealing to prospective home buyers. A leaky basement is a major red flag during a home inspection, and it will likely reduce the amount that buyers are willing to pay.

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.

The process is different for each type of drainage system. But no matter your drainage system type, you’ll have to start by digging a hole or trench. To install an effective French drain, for example, you’ll need to dig a trench, line it with filter fabric, pour gravel inside, hook up pipe connections, set the pipe, and cover it with gravel.

You can use shovels or rent a trencher, depending on the size of the trench or hole you’re digging. You generally don’t need a permit from the city to install a drainage system on your own property, but if the work involves changing a structure or electrical work, contact your municipality to check the requirements.
