"The plumbing technician, Tyler Herriage, was able to arrive very quickly, inspect the damaged tile, bathroom faucets and pipes, water heater, and water meter, and determine that the water damage was not due to a leak this time. He was knowledgeable explaining the types and signs of leaks and I appreciated his honesty advising that there was not evidence a costly pressure test or camera run was needed."

"It went really well. I appreciated the open and honest conversation. The company presented several solutions in addition to discusssing the pros and cons with me about each. In the end with their help because of their honesty we decided to peruse the landscape regrade option which meant that they would not get a French drain job. I have come across few companies who will do what is right and in the best interest of a client at the expense of their own business but they did and it was a refreshing experience."

"I hired Mason and his Firm Foundation company to install a water drainage system at my mother's 50-year-old home. Over the last few years, heavy rains would pool on the patio and through the patio door, causing minor indoor flooding each time. After a faulty foundation was ruled out, Mason discovered that the backyard trees had pushed on the earth and created slopes, so a drainage system was suggested and that's what we ended up installing. I thought that at the very least the system would look unsightly and out of place, but the skillful construction made it appear that the drainage system has been there since the beginning. I'm glad to finally fix a problem that had been plaguing us for the better part of three years, and the bid came in MUCH cheaper than what was quoted by the plumber."

"DWS were very professional, courteous and efficient The contractor took the time to visit and identify my needs (others did not). The work was completed with minimum fuss and completed in half a day, despite there being 9 areas to water. I highly recommend DWS for irrigation work and will do so for my friends."

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

Bleach—even diluted bleach—is not always the safest option for cleaning your drains. With a high pH, bleach can be highly corrosive to many types of pipes, especially when used regularly. When mixed with household cleaners and organic waste, it can also create dangerous chemicals. Remember to use proper protective equipment and ventilation when dealing with bleach.

While some chemical drain cleaners with hydrochloric acid can dissolve hair, this method is not recommended as it can also destroy your plumbing pipes. A common DIY alternative is using baking soda and vinegar, which can help break down the clog but will not actually dissolve the hair. The best and safest method for clearing a hair clog is to remove it manually. You can use a drain snake, a straightened wire hanger with pliers to fish out the clog, or have a plumber use a professional auger for more severe blockages.

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.

A sewage smell in your crawl space is usually from a damaged or clogged pipe leaking sewer gasses or actual sewage underneath your home, but there are some other common causes. Moisture, from poor or damaged encapsulation or a malfunctioning sump pump, can harbor mold and bacteria, causing a musty smell. Pests can also get stuck in your crawl space and die, which causes a sewage-like odor.

If you want to avoid using a snake to unclog a drain, or if you don’t have one, try vinegar and baking soda. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of white vinegar. Wait for 15 minutes, and then run hot water (but not boiling water) down the drain to see if the clog is clear. Repeat multiple times as needed.
