“The basement finishing experts..." Endless design solutions. Thirty (30) years of experience, and a resume that includes work on over 1,200 basements. Buckeye Basements, Inc. is an award-winning remodeling company that specializes in basement remodeling.

"Excellent. We had several quotes before making a commitment. Our biggest priorities were quality work that we could trust was done right (no cutting corners) and timely completion of the project (no disappearing contractor horror stories), and that is what we got with Buckeye Basements. They presented us with a timeline at the beginning and it was accurate throughout the project, even ending a few days early. This helped us know exactly what to expect, when payments were due, and what days we needed to have decisions made such as paint colors. The crews were professional and kept a clean worksite. We would highly recommend them to family and friends!"

"Repair man was nice enough, but when he found (eventually) a bad outlet (not a bad disposal after all) under the sink where disposal was powered, the replacement fee was ridiculous. Nonetheless, I had to replace it, or the new disposal wouldn't have been replaced. Kinda felt a little trapped. Ended up paying too much and throw out a perfectly good yet older disposal."

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Overall, yes. Crushed stone of any type is pretty effective for drainage. Compared to crushed gravel, though, pea gravel can be more prone to clumping over time, so it might not be the absolute best option. It’s sometimes used in underground drainage projects, though, so it’ll work well enough for most home improvement projects. 

In most cases, yes, because the large majority of basements leak or will have moisture issues at some point, and waterproofing methods can mitigate that risk or eliminate it entirely. Plus, water and moisture issues can be quite problematic, as they can lead to mold growth, rotting of building materials, structural damage, poor indoor air quality, increased electric bills, and other problems.

A sump pump can be added to an existing basement. To do this, you will need to use a jackhammer or sledgehammer to break up the concrete and dig a pit. You will also need to create a hole in your basement wall to run the discharge pipe through.

Regrading your yard can often fix drainage problems. You can also try aerating the lawn to encourage better drainage or install a new drainage system to prevent water from pooling in certain areas.

The pipe size for French drains depends on whether the area collects large amounts of water and experiences heavy rainfall. Typically, a 4-inch perforated pipe is used for French drains. However, for heavily saturated areas, you may want to use a larger size, such as a 6-inch or 8-inch pipe. Consult your French drain installer for best results.
