"Bill and his crew exceeded our expectations. Both our water damaged basement and our failing garage foundation required a change in course and they communicated options and provided excellent and economic solutions. They arrived early and stayed late 6 days a week to work around our weather. They provided extras as we went along and worked through some tough weather conditions. The daily communication was the best. Their prices saved us so much money. Their clean-up left our place in better condition than when they arrived. This company is going places. We will use them for any future needs."
"TJ was very thorough in his explanation of the project and giving us our options. The installation of the spray foam exceeded our expectations. He worked around our remodel and is willing to come back in phases as we complete a room and shuffle our belongings. We appreciate the communication, flexibility and professional quality of his work."
"Both jobs went well. Dennis reviewed the shower job with me. There was no drywall access in place, so after examining our home's floor plan, he showed me where to cut open and frame an access panel. I completed this prior to his arrival, and it worked well for his valve removal and installing a new Moen fixture. Dennis then replaced our outdated toilet with a Mansfield elongated toilet. Both jobs were completed in a professional, workmanship manner."
"They came on time and were very confident about getting this issue resolved. At the beginning they were going to charge me 200.00. So as they were trying there best and with no success they pulled the toilet and then they recommended that this unit needed to be replaced. They quoted me there price and they recommended me to go and get one from Menards due to it being cheaper. They took the old toilet for me and explained all that I needed if I wanted to install it myself. I accepted the challenge and I did exactly what they told me to get and do. The best part was that. They actually only charged me 65.00 due to them being unable to resolve my issue. And I'm very pleased with there professionalism and shooting me straight. I would highly recommend them."
"Patriot Plumbing arrived promptly, diagnosed the problem, provided a verbal estimate and began work all on the same day. They replaced the bath fixtures in the upstairs bathroom and a pipe that was leaking. Travis also installed a water heater overflow tank. They stuck to their estimate and completed the work in a timely manner, but did leave us with open holes in the drywall to dry out the water damage and later silicone the hatches in ourselves. The hole for the new access hatch was cut a bit too big, so we'll have to patch that with spackle ourselves."
"We had a concrete sidewalk, steps and a back porch designed and poured by Dowden Creative Construction. The patio included a hot tub area and we are very pleased with how everything turned out. We are also very happy that we used their design as they incorporated proper slopes and a French drain system. Without that extra planning, we surely would have had drainage problems. There were no problems at all, and our lives are now very pleasant in our beautiful back yard."

"Dereck and his team were timely. They removed two large trees and hauled off the limbs. Next, they tore out a rock driveway and spread that rock on the side of our home as requested. Next, they poured a new, perfectly sloped concrete driveway using a rebar. Again, it was all quite timely and better priced than other bids. Thank You!"
"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."
"High Plains came out to fix our drain pipe that had a j-hook that broke, so our pipes came undone under our sink! They came quick and fixed the issue! We were so thankful! The guys were great to work with and the owner Matt was fantastic!"
Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts
The cost to install a new sump pump, including materials and professional labor, typically ranges from $1,000 to $3,000. The average cost is often cited between $1,200 and $2,500. Several factors influence the final price, including the type of pump, the complexity of the drainage system, and the installation location. For instance, installing a sump pump in a basement may cost around $1,200, while a more complex installation in a crawl space can cost an average of $3,900. It is important to hire a licensed professional for the installation to ensure quality work, which can impact the pump's lifespan and warranty. Note that these costs are for a new installation; replacing an existing unit is less expensive, typically costing $308 to $748.
The regulations around whether drain pipe installers need to hold licenses or certifications differ based on where you live and the type of drain pipe installed. Municipalities have varying rules and regulations about who can and can’t perform plumbing work. However, we recommend hiring a certified plumber to install or modify your drain lines. Licensed plumbers will perform a high-quality, professional installation, which translates to a lower risk of clogs and leaks in the future. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to confirm the license status of your potential plumber before hiring them to install your drain pipe.
The cost to install landscape drainage varies widely based on the scope of the project and the severity of the drainage issues. Typically, this project’s cost falls somewhere between $2,000 and $7,000 overall. Small-scale projects or simple fixes may start at the lower end, while more extensive and complex solutions could reach the higher end of the range. To get an accurate estimate, you should obtain quotes from multiple companies, as they will assess your specific needs and provide a customized cost estimate based on the work required.
Most people consider a French drain to be one of the most effective solutions for foundation leaks, but it’s not always a standalone solution. French drains will help keep water away from your foundation to reduce the risk of leaking and structural damage from soil expansion, but depending on your foundation type and location, you might need other systems or techniques—like soil gradation and gutter and leader installation—to resolve the underlying problem.
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.
