"John davenport Ken mays Joe harbin Charles watry and James carey gave me excellent, knowledgeable, courteous service on my crawl space foundation issues. They raised my settling foundation joists, so doors closed smoothly and small fissures closed and sealed. They also enclosed my crawl space with a very professional and attractive vapor lock enclosure, installed a sump pump and dehumidifier. I would hire AFS again. I highly commend the gentlemen mentioned for their expertise, integrity and friendly customer service. David R. Penland Chaplain (LTC) USA, ret"

Customers say: Terrific value

"Overall we are very pleased with the project, the look, quality and price of the work. Chris and Jose did a good job of communicating with us and the documentation was good. They encouraged us to visit Power Rental to see what the product would look like and that was very helpful. We found what we wanted. The price was good and the work was good. They even put in the railings for free. We interviewed 8 other vendors and they were our first choice. The only disconnect was the condition our yard was left in when done...if I knew the extent of damage ahead of time, I could have at least moved some of the decorate gravel, rocks, etc. They attempted to smooth out some of the deep tractor marks on one side, but most looked like a mudbog competition and it took several days of hard labor to clean up the mess. Nevertheless, we would recommend them to others, perhaps just encourage them to be forthcoming with how the tractor will impact the areas around the project. Good job though!! We are happy with the final product!!"

Once I called ProDry, they got me scheduled in a short time and the service tech really did a great job with removing the mold and giving us tips and tricks on preventing it in the future to protect our families health. Very happy to have them as local servicers!"

"We had a very good experience with Mr. Ashe's service.

As soon as we moved into a house, we noticed a groundhog in the backyard. Once contacted, Mr. Ashe came out promptly for evaluation and estimate. We asked him to start trapping in a few days for 5 consecutive days. One day before his first trapping, we noticed squirrels. With this finding, he placed traps for both groudhog and squirrels without extra fees.

He came out every morning to check on traps and removed animals. When a skunk was caught to our surprise, he volunteered to come out for an extra 5 days, again without additional fees.

His service was not just for trapping and removal of animals but involved evaluation of backyard fences and porch. He advised us on how to patch potential portal of entry of animals. Based on his advice, we had a contractor install rubber and wire guard below the porch and in the lower portion of fence. We have not seen any unwanted animals since. If we are to have any wildlife issues in the future, we will be contacting classic wildlife control without hesitation!"

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

A range of certified professionals can install French drains, from foundation specialists to plumbers. However, you’ll want to make sure that the professional has a breadth of experience installing the specific type of drain you need in or outside your home. Your contractor should also have experience with sump pumps, waterproofing, and flood-proof landscaping.

A sump pump's lifespan is typically 7 to 10 years, though the general range can be anywhere from 5 to 15 years. The specific type of pump is a major factor: pedestal sump pumps last an average of 20 to 25 years, whereas submersible sump pumps last between 5 and 15 years. While pedestal pumps are less expensive to service, they are also louder and more prone to clogging.

Several other factors influence longevity, including the pump's quality, usage frequency, and maintenance schedule. A high-quality pump that is well-maintained in a dry climate may last for two decades, while a lower-quality, poorly maintained pump in an area with a high water table or frequent flooding may fail in six years or less.

Regular maintenance, including annual inspections and tuneups from a professional, can significantly extend the pump's life. It is time to consider a replacement if your sump pump runs constantly, cycles frequently, shows visible rust or corrosion, or trips a circuit breaker. As a preventative measure, many homeowners replace their pumps every eight years. It's also worth noting that a manufacturer's warranty can indicate expected lifespan, and some home insurance policies may not cover water damage from a pump that is past its recommended replacement date.

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.

Yes, professionals ensure proper grading and drainage to prevent water pooling.

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.
