"Erika and Jeffrey were very prompt in giving us a very reasonable quote to have sod laid. We signed with them, the next day fresh cut sod got delivered and job got done. I would HIGHLY recommend Martin Construction and Landscaping. Their team of workers are very professional, efficient, and do top notch work. Lynette"

"UPDATE 7/9/18: NOT a happy camper. I was so excited to get a much needed french drain. I would stand out in the street just to watch the water exit into the street. However, I am less than pleased now. The pipe was barely buried. Even the littlest bit of rain washes the soil away and exposes the pipe. I could have dirt brought in to pile on top of it but I don't feel like I should have to. I think it should be a given that it would be buried. There is a big hole which is where I believe two pipes are supposed to meet. Chris at Pier-tech did come out after I left him know it was leaking around a downspout a few months ago. But he had not responded to my texts or phone call regarding this new issue. It's a hole that even when I fill it with dirt, it keeps sinking in again. Something is not right! Original review: Clint Majors and Jose (didn't catch his last name) were great! We desperately needed a French drain. Clint found ways to help me save money and most especially understood my need to protect the drain from my two big Huskies who like to dig. I cut wire to lay over the top of it and they took the rock they would not be able to use under the drain (couldn't go deep enough because of utilities) and put it over the top of the wire. They even staked down the wire for me. It rained a lot today and I was out in the street taking pictures and video of the water running OUT of my yard and into the street to the city drains!!!! Believe me, I am doing a happy dance!! Clint assured me if I have any issues to let him know and he will come check things out. Oh, I should mention they had to HAND DIG the trench because the utilities were buried too close to where they needed to place the drain! Thank you, Clint and Jose!"

"We had 4 bids, and this bid was in the middle of the range. Gary was very professional, explained everything in detail on what they would do and we liked and trusted what he said. The crew was very hard working and careful with everything that they handled. They did a superior job and we now have a life time warranty, and by the way it looks, we can't imagine ever having water come in our basement on that north wall again. We highly recommend this company for their professionalism from sales people to crew. We will surely recommend them to anyone needing that type of service in our area."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Crawl spaces are the more desirable option overall because they provide additional space for storage and utilities, but they are more expensive to install and maintain. Slab foundations are considered a better option in warmer climates where the depth of the frost line isn’t an issue because they’re more affordable, but crawl spaces are better in areas where the frost line is deep or where flooding can be an issue.

Rigid foam board insulation is one of the safest insulation materials for basement walls. The panels offer a moisture barrier to prevent mold and mildew build-up. At the same time, this material is also fire-resistant, so you don’t have to worry as much about a fire breaking out as you would with spray foam insulation. 

Water can seep into porous materials like wood beams, floor joists, and roof rafters within minutes, but they’ll need to see prolonged exposure before you have structural damage. Mold can start growing within 24 hours, and mold can eat away at the structural components over time. Wood rot is more of a concern, though. Wet and dry rot are fungal infections that set in in moist conditions and rapidly deteriorate wood, causing major structural damage within just a few months in some cases.

In most cases, it is safe to live in a home with minor foundation problems, but you should not let the issues persist. Virtually all foundations have small cracks from normal settlement, which are not a structural concern but should be sealed to prevent water intrusion. However, major damage—such as large structural cracks, sinking foundations, or bulging walls—can make a home unsafe. Other issues that can pose safety and health risks include poor indoor air quality from mold or pests, uneven floors, and rotten beams or joists. It is always best to have a foundation repair expert or structural engineer inspect any issues to determine if your home is safe to live in.

Yes, professional installers use weather-resistant materials to protect the dish and cabling from environmental damage.
