"We recently used AJ's Waterproofing Services to fix our water issues in our basement and we couldn't be happier with the job him and his team did. It was very apparent from our consultation with him that he is the ultimate professional. He spent over an hour and a half with us explaining the issues at hand in our basement and the different options we could go with to remedy the situation. It never once felt like he was out to oversell us or take advantage of us. We knew very quickly he was the man for our job. The day of the French drain install, he sent us multiple updates throughout the day. After they were done for the day, they thoroughly cleaned the area. There were no traces of dust and debris from where they dug up the concrete. We just had a major rain storm and we had no water in the basement. I would highly recommend AJ's Waterproofing for all of your water issue needs."

"Paradigm Home Solutions hit a home run in every respect. Complete waterproofing of a wet 600SF basement with French drains and two new pits with sump pumps. Since then the basement has been completely dry. This was part of a whole house remodel: structural, electric, plumbing, gas, etc. Paradigm stands out as the best contractor we dealt with through this entire project. Bob and Andy answer their phones without fail, their crew showed up on the scheduled days, worked hard (real hard) for 2 days straight in the July heat, and made no shortcuts or excuses. When we had a couple of simple questions a few weeks later Bob picked up the phone immediately. I wish all contractors demonstrated this sort of quality, commitment and communication."

"After reading through some of the prior reviews I have seen kind of a mixed bag of responses, which honestly surprises me because every time I have used Mattioni for plumbing and heating issues (I had them replace my heat pump system 3 years ago as well) they have been nothing short of extraordinary! To focus on today's job, my technician Paul M, arrived (at exactly 3:00, which was the beginning of the time window that the dispatcher quoted me in the morning, which was fantastic) to fix a leak that I had found the night before in my basement that had soaked my drop-ceiling tile. I had tried to find the leak myself last night when I discovered the moisture on the tile, but could not find any dripping water although I did see drain pipes within a 2 foot area that showed no signs of dripping, and there was nothing directly above the spot where the leak soaked the tile, which had me baffled. When Paul came over he was able to tell from the piping where my powder room fixtures were in proximity to the leak, which was a good two feet to the left, and immediately hit on the root cause of the problem being the ice maker in my kitchen refrigerator upstairs, which I was amazed by as the subfloor panels themselves did not appear to be wet (the location of the moisture was at the very corner of my basement by the dividing wall between my townhouse and my adjoining neighbor so the wooden panels did not appear to be damp, but there was a very slight gap in between where the wood ended and the concrete wall began. Paul went upstairs and pulled out the refrigerator and immediately saw moisture in the very back corner of the floor, which I did not even notice on first sight until he pointed it out. He then inspected the plastic tubing line that ran into the refrigerator for the ice machine (that I had never used in the 5 years I have owned the house) and was able to show me a pin-sized hole that was actively misting water out of it that happened to be situated directly above the gap in the floor that I mentioned earlier. Given how hard this leak was to find when I was even staring right at it is a huge credit to his expertise! My automatic assumption was that it had to be one of the pipes in the area of the basement, and I never even considered that a fixture upstairs could have been causing this, especially given the lack of moisture on the wooden floor boards! I am completely satisfied with my experience today from all aspects, and I find it interesting when I read some of the reviews posted here by others that mention how expensive their service was, which maybe Mattioni's is on the pricier side, but in my opinion you get what you pay for and I am happy with the price when it means that Mattioni employs professional and courteous technicians like Paul who you are comfortable with bringing into your home, and are able to properly identify and fix a problem the first time they come out! As I said previously, my experiences with Mattioni have always been fantastic, and I definitely plan on hiring them again when needed."

"Tucks Waterproofing repaired a small crack in our foundation, put in a french drain in front of the house, and helped diver water out of our back yard. They responded quickly and professionally to our request for a quote and got the work done fast and for a reasonable price. Their project did an excellent job during a recent downpour. I would highly recommend Tucks."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

Boiling water helps unclog a drain, but usually only with a harder abrasive such as baking soda or vinegar. On its own, it isn’t the most effective tool. In addition, you shouldn’t use boiling water if you have PVC pipes, as it can soften or melt them. Use a plunger or enlist the help of a pro if you have plastic pipes.

It is generally not recommended to pour hot or boiling water down a drain to unfreeze pipes due to significant risks. In some cases, the sudden temperature change can cause more ice buildup or produce steam, which increases pressure and could cause the pipe to burst, leading to costly damage and potential burn injuries. While hot water might help with a partially frozen drainpipe, it is unlikely to thaw a completely blocked water pipe further down the system. Additionally, boiling water can damage plastic pipes over time. Safer and more effective methods include using a space heater near the frozen section or applying hot towels directly to the pipe.

The drain pump will naturally make a standard operational and draining sound several times throughout your dishwasher cycle. If you hear abnormally loud sounds like scraping, grinding, or clicking, you may have food debris or a piece of glass stuck in your drain filter. Avoid dishwasher repair by always scraping food off your dishes and loading the racks correctly.

In the majority of cases, homeowners insurance will not cover a main sewer line root clog. The reason is that most insurance companies consider tree root damage to sewer lines as common wear and tear, which is also preventable. However, you may be able to buy optional add-on coverage, such as "service line coverage" or "sewer line endorsements," that would protect against root damage to your sewer line.

You can try several easy methods to unclog a drain, one of the easiest and most effective of which is to use a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. This will help dislodge and dissolve the clog to move it down the drain pipes. Pour 1/2 cup baking soda into the drain, followed by 1/2 cup of white vinegar. Dump several cups of boiling water (or hot water if you have PVC pipes) into the drain and let sit for up to one hour. Run hot water to clear the drain.
