"To summarize quickly, I cannot speak highly enough of Diggs Building Technologies. I am absolutely blown away by what they accomplished and would hire them again without hesitation. Worth every penny. For the past 5 years, I have been restoring/rennovating a 1890 Balloon Frame Colonial in Tillson, NY. While the original house foundation was extremely well built and well-mainted, I canâ t say that much about the 2 story enclosed porch put on in the 1920â sâ ¦ The foundation was crumbling; the first floor walls were bowing out and the floor had settled 3+ inches. To further complicate the matter, all the mechnicals of the house (water, sewage, and gas) ran through that back porch foundation making the project extremely complex in scope. Despite these massive issues on the first floor, the 2nd floor of the porch was in great shape and it was important for us to find a builder who could rebuild the entire bottom half of the structure while also preserving the top. This was no small feat. Much to my surprise, Tim and his crew (alongside their engineer) were able to do just that. With precision, they navigated the mechanicals, removed the old foundation and floor and then went on to replace both of those elements. While doing this, the room above stayed untouched. Not one crack on the walls, not one bow in the floor, and shockingly - all 4 of the original casement windows still opened and close. Overall, they did an excellent job and I would hire them without hesitation again. If you are dealing with any foundation issues, I encourage you to hire Tim, Jake, and Jesse. They are the only team I would trust doing this type of work."

"Gregg did a fantastic job repairing our basement foundation, and at a very competitive price. He and his excellent crew showed up on time every day, worked quickly and efficiently, and did a great clean up job. He was with them from start to finish, unlike most contractors who just show up in the morning to drop off their workers. Gregg is an old-school craftsman who obviously takes great pride in his work, and heâ s also someone who thinks outside the box. His company motto is â Exceeding Expectations,â and thatâ s exactly the experience we had. Weâ re totally satisfied with the job he did, and would not hesitate to use him again. Happy to give him our very highest recommendation!"

"I recently had a roof repair done, and I couldn?t be happier with the results. The team at dryshield arrived on time, were professional, and explained every step of the process in detail. They identified the issue quickly and provided multiple options before deciding on the best fix for my situation. The work was completed efficiently without causing any disruption to my daily life. They cleaned up thoroughly after finishing, and the materials used looked high quality. , and I?ve had no leaks or water damage since the repair. What impressed me most was their attention to detail ? They also offered a clear timeline and kept me updated throughout the process. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing roof repair or replacement. I plan to hire them again for future home improvement projects. Rating: ????? Recommendation: 100% ? I?ll definitely use them again"

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Thankfully, you do have a few sump pump backup options in case it fails. One option is a battery-powered backup sump pump. Another option is using a portable backup generator as a power supply for your sump pump. Unlike a battery-powered backup which has limited power, a generator can run around the clock for as long as you need it. 

Or you can opt for a water-powered backup pump, which uses your home’s water supply as a source of power. However, this may not be the best option if you find your house frequently has low water pressure.

Most sump pumps come with power cords that can be plugged into an outlet, but there are options that can be hardwired into a home’s electrical system. Either way, it’s smart to have a backup power supply in case the electricity goes out during a storm. That way, the sump pump can keep running and removing water from the sump pit.

Submersible and pedestal sump pumps are two popular types of sump pumps. Submersible models are covered by water in a sump pit, which helps keep the motor cooler and quieter. Pedestal sump pumps stick out of the sump pit, so the motor stays dry and is easier to access. Submersible sump pumps are the pricier option, but they also have longer life spans.

Yes, you can install a sump pump yourself. By following the steps above, you can have a sump pump installed in 24 hours. You will have to use some advanced tools and techniques, so if you feel uneasy about taking it on yourself, it’s best to hire a professional.

Several factors can impact the cost of waterproofing your basement. Some of the most common cost factors include:

  • Location

  • Square footage

  • Cause of the water leak

  • Type of foundation

  • Accessibility

  • Waterproofing method

  • Materials

  • Contractor experience and availability

  • Engineering reports, if needed

  • Structural and other repairs

  • Permits
