"I had severe foundation water damage to my kitchen walls & flooring. My house sits on a hill so kitchen is partially underground. It all seemed quite hopeless to fix, but from the salesman to the crew they reassured me & were never in doubt! They completed the work in 3 days. Now itâ s dry as a bone! I was also very impressed with the cleanup after!"

"This is my second review of this company.  Just like my first experience with Pocono Mountain Plumbing,  Bob definitely came through for us again.  We needed an emergency call when we discovered we had no water on the morning of 7/16/14.  One call to Bob and I was assured that even though he was in the middle of a big job, he would make sure he got to us before the end of the day so that we could have water.
Good to his word, he and his assistant showed up around 4:00 PM and informed me that since he had done the work on our new well pump 2 1/2 years ago, he was going to stand behind the work he had done.  We did have a one year warranty, but Bob being Bob didn't think that was fair,so he offered to take responsibility for anything that involved his work. You heard me, HE WAS WILLING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR HIS WORK.
Bob and Ronnie found the problem right away, discovering that some of the wires had become frayed, but they didn't stop there. Bob decided to pull the entire length of tubing and wiring in our well to make sure there were  no other problems. No big deal right?  Our well is 400 ft plus and they pulled out every inch checking for damage the whole way.  Bob also decided to sanitize our well while he was here. Just another little perk that this man thinks about when he is working for you.
Just as Bob and Ronnie was putting everything back in place, a hissing sound was detected. Yup, sure enough there was a tiny little hole in the brass fitting that couples with the underground piping back to the house.  Ironically, this was the exact kind of job Bob was doing earlier in the day, requiring a backhoe for the repair.  I guess Bob saw the look on my face and realized we just weren't prepared for that kind of expense. (We are retired and on a fixed income)  He told me not  to worry that he would be able to do something that would give us a temporary fix.  He couldn't guarantee how long it would work, but he knew we would have enough time to manage our budget  enabling us to be able to afford the permanent repair. As he said, "it might work for six weeks or six months, but for now you're good to go"
I don't know many contractors  who would put the needs of their customers before their own best interest, but Bob is just that kind of person and business man. The total bill for the work, they were here for 2 1/2 hours, was $655, BUT Bob gave us a $200 discount.  This, I know, was done out of compassion for our situation at the moment.  Again, if you know a better businessman, a more professional businessman and more compassionate businessman, then call him when you need a plumber,  But if you don't know a plumber like that, and I doubt that you do, call Bob.  You will never regret it.
Thanks, Bob.  You know we are your loyal customers for life.

"Excellent wish all my contractors came out this good.  showed up for the estimate on time and had a video that showed the steps to fix the basement.  measured  the basement and made up contract.  when I mentioned angies list and deals offered we built it right into contract without printing coupons and stuff. were quick with availability came out the following week.  foreman (Dan) was on time and double checked everything before starting .Wanted to move sump pump and outside drain to a less used area. not a PROBLEM. Was loud and cold in the house all day as if you run the furnace while they work it comes through the vents.  laid out carpet protectors and were done in only 1 day (the estimator planned 2)  Jackhammered the floor out and dug down to foundation laid new drains and installed new sump pump. they brought 5 people and they all worked hard constantly for the day.  lost track of all the buckets after 30 (5 gal. buckets).removed with old crap.  Explained all the warranties and paperwork with new sump pump.  Have to wait for the concrete to dry. it's now 3 days later and I'm ready to put the basement back together.  Looks great and can't wait to use the basement without wet and damp floors and walls furnace)  did forget to put screen back in basement window but if you have leaky walls and damp floors this is nice.  any problems after the next big rain I'll let ya's know.

"The crew were all very professional and on time each morning. They cleaned up completely every day. When they were digging the channels they found a problem with the install (my foundation) and came up with a solution at no extra charge to me. Before leaving for the day they would show me what they had done and let me know the plan for the next day. I used this company at my old house and was pleased with their work then."

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

If your basement often leaks after heavy rain, it’s probably caused by hydrostatic pressure. When the ground is saturated with water, it can put pressure on the exterior of your home’s foundation, causing cracks in the basement wall and pushing water through any existing weak spots. Over time, hydrostatic pressure can cause structural damage to your home.

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.

French drains and yard grading systems are two highly effective ways to fix standing water around the foundation. Since the French drain uses a perforated pipe covered by gravel, you won’t have to worry about water taking the soil away from your foundation. Meanwhile, yard grading levels out the ground to prevent water from gathering around your foundation.

Yes, it’s possible to install a sewage ejector pump outside rather than in a basement. However, there may be some extra steps involved, including running pipes from the inside to the outside of your home and digging (and re-filling) a hole for the basin. If you aren’t comfortable with this type of work, contact a plumbing pro to handle it for you.

You should take care of any sign of water in your basement, whether it’s dampness after heavy rain or puddles of water on the floor. Besides potentially causing a health hazard, the moisture can damage your home’s structure and foundation. Furthermore, mold can grow quickly and spread throughout the rest of your home. With mold remediation costs ranging between $1,200 and $3,400, it’s best to avoid mold issues by fixing the leak.
