"Jim and Jordan were both professional and honest. They worked with us on installing an interior french/foundation drain around half of our basement into an existing, outside sump pump and did not try to oversell us on adding a second sump pump (as other companies did). Their crew were all polite, efficient and hard workers and left the area clean and finished off in a professional manner. For years, every time there was sustained rain we would have water seeping into our basement. Since their installation, we have had sustained rain a number of times and the foundation drain has worked very well. No more water in the basement. I would highly recommend them."

"They leveled our sagging floors beautifully and installed a drain system with a sump pump to address basement flooding issues. All was done with punctuality, precision, and professionalism. Additionally, the price was very reasonable especially compared to competitors. Highly recommend."

"It took two days to tear out the old insulation under the bottom floor and install encapsulation in the whole crawlspace. Nick and his crew did quality work getting the job completed. They also patched holes in the foundation, hauled off all the old, dirty insulation and torn vapor barrier. All-in-all a very accommodating crew."

"I feel compelled to alter my review. Although the end product was not the prestine driveway I had hoped for, it was the best of the 3 driveways. Although my frustrations with my new build home have been exhausting, challenging and emotionally draining. In the end the pot boiled over and I took my frustrations out on DJ and Jacob. The home contractor poured the original driveway in temperatures in excess of 101 degrees, with in 12 hours the driveway was completely cracked and shattered. After 1.5 years the builder finally agreed to replace all the damaged driveways, sidewalks in the community. The builder then hired a contractor to redo the damaged concrete work. Unfortunately my driveway instead of being poured in one single pour was poured in three separate pours with lapse of pours between 45 minutes to 1 hour. They then sprayed water on the three different pours and attempted to blend them all together. Upon drying the driveway had Crazing the entire length of the driveway, major cosmetic issues where the pours were blended in addition to cold joints. The unsightlyness of the driveway in addition to numerous negative comments of neighbors encouraged me to once again redo the driveway this time at my expense. To-date I have spent over 40k repairing major issues with my home. Although almost every home in our community has had to deal with issues such as mine and some with issues far beyond my own, it did not.make dealing with those issues and costs any easier. DJ and Jacob did what they could to produce a quality product. My anxiety level was on high alert with this particular project. After the driveway dried to a white color and 2 months later when the gray dots appeared, all I could think of was here we go again. Knowing my anxiety level, a little more communication to try and explain what was causing these dots to occur and what if any thing could have been done if they continued, most likely would have prevented my response. For that I am truly sorry. Knowing that nothing in.life is perfect...i.was just hoping that for once something would go right and I could put it to rest. Once again Although the driveway did not meet my prestine expectations, in all fairness it was the best of the 3. Unfortunately in life you can not take back what you say. I do feel that I was unfair to DJ and Jacob and all that they do to assist their customers."

"We would highly recommend Sampson Concrete. Gideon made multiple trips to our home to help us determine the best design for our projects. The team arrived on time and were very professional. They took additional care to repair a French drain that had collapsed before pouring our patio. We had multiple projects today and are exceptionally happy with all of them. We will be hiring them again."

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Basements with persistent moisture problems or flooding shouldn’t be finished until the moisture issues have been fixed. In addition, if your foundation is cracked, you have unmitigated radon levels, or you have asbestos or lead pipes, remediate the underlying problem before finishing your basement. Turning a basement into living space before fixing these issues can lead to serious health risks or structural damage. 

Yes, many people choose to bury their sump pump discharge pipes. When you leave the pipe visible in your yard, you might trip over it or accidentally damage it with your lawn mower. Plus, from an aesthetic perspective, hiding the discharge line underground looks nicer than leaving it out in the open. Before burying a sump pump pipe, review your local building codes to make sure your installation is compliant.

Some questions you should ask before hiring a plumber or drainage installation company include:

  • Are you licensed and insured?

  • Do you have any customer testimonials I can read?

  • How do you handle unforeseen challenges that occur during the job?

  • Is your fee a flat rate or hourly?

  • Do you do the work, or do you have subcontractors?

  • Is everyone who does the work licensed and qualified plumbers?

  • Is cleanup included in the quote?

  • Do you offer a warranty or guarantee on your work?

Yes, it is generally unhealthy and can be dangerous to live in a damp basement. The damp air can negatively affect your breathing and lungs, and the moisture promotes mold growth and pest infestations. Inhaling mold spores or waste particles from insects and rodents attracted to the moisture can be hazardous. This damp, moldy air can also circulate into your main living area. It is crucial to resolve any moisture problems and implement preventative measures before using your basement as a living space.

Not all window wells have a formal drain, but they all require a method for water to flow away from the window. Some wells are connected to an interior or exterior drain tile, which is the most effective solution. Others rely on a deep layer of gravel or crushed stone that allows water to filter down into the soil.

However, if a window well lacks a proper drainage system, it can lead to basement seepage, costly water damage, mold growth, and potential foundation damage. This is especially true in areas with heavy rainfall or expansive soil.

If your window well doesn't have a drain or is not draining quickly enough, you have a few options. For gravel-based systems, the stone may have compacted and needs to be improved. For a more robust solution, you can hire a plumber or window installer to connect the well to a drainage system. This can also be a DIY project using a shovel or auger.
