"I'm not fully moved into the home yet, but I will update when I am there permanently. The crew was very professional, worked diligently, cleaned up after every day of work (three day job--french drain expansion, two additional sump pumps installed, window drains into the sump pumps, pretty extensive job)."

"The basement experts came in and patched up my wall around my well pump line that was leaking. I was getting water all along my front wall and two side walls when we got good rains. We’ve had several hard downpours the past few weeks since they did their work and haven’t gotten a single drop of water! Best price I found and great work. Can’t beat it thank you!"

"Work scheduled within a reasonable amount of time. Workers showed up on time. All my questions were answered. Quality of work exceptional. Unlike another company I was considering, They performed drainage work outside my foundation as well as in my crawl space. I highly recommend this company for anyone having problems in their basement/crawl space."

"After getting 4 quotes for foundation drain installation in my basement, I ultimately chose to have Dan and his team install a system. I am definitely happy with my decision. Dan and his team were professional, hard working and finished the job quickly. Dan (the owner) was on site for the entire job and was more than willing to answer any question I asked. I would without hesitation recommend these guys to anyone with basement water problems. (It would be nice if Home Advisor would correct the one star review seen here as it was given in obvious error if you take time to read the review)"

"I get 3 estimates for my work. They were $2,000 less. Seth came the same day I called. A 2hr. Trip from my house. Explained what needed to be done. I appreciate no hidden fees after completing my basement. I will be calling them again"

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

In most cases, standard homeowners insurance policies do not cover damage from a sump pump failure or overflow. Coverage for water damage is often limited to sudden, unexpected events like a burst pipe that was not caused by negligence. To be covered for sump pump issues, you will likely need to purchase a specific rider, endorsement, or additional water backup insurance. If your insurer offers this type of coverage, they may require proof that your sump pump is regularly maintained.

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.

A sump pump will drain a flooded basement if it has a horsepower strong enough to remove the water faster than it is entering the room. If you have the wrong type or size of sump pump installed–or if your sump pump has failed–you may need to take additional steps to stop the flow of water or remove it manually.

Yes, many modern water pumps are designed with energy efficiency in mind. Look for pumps with high efficiency ratings or those with an Energy Star certification. These pumps consume less power and can reduce your utility bills. Additionally, variable-speed pumps are more efficient since they can adjust the flow based on demand, providing significant savings over time.

Yes, you can finish a basement that leaks, as long as you address the leak first. Before finishing a basement, you’ll need to repair any cracks in the walls and waterproof the basement to prevent future leaks. It’s much harder to clean up a water leak from a finished basement than an unfinished one, so preemptively addressing any leaking areas prevents expensive repairs in the future.
