Get matched with top foundation drain installation pros in Dumfries, VA

"I highly recommend DES! I arranged a consultation after a home inspection report indicated that there was moisture in our basement walls. I was worried that costly mitigation efforts would be required. A friend who had previously used DES for a basement water problem highly recommend them, telling us that they were an honest company that only does what is necessary to solve a problem. Happily, Mark Fine from DES inspected both our basement and our exterior grounds and reported that there was no indication of cracks in the foundation or water intrusion, and that no work needed to be done. It is so refreshing to have a company that doesn't try to sell expensive services when they are not necessary!"

"I would recommend this company highly. I watched them do my entire waterproofing job and the work and steps they took to do the job correctly was impressive. They cleaned the entire area thoroughly after they were finished. You would never know that a Six foot hole had been dug in my yard."

"We moved into new house and quickly found out the basement had major water issues due to years of neglect (including a clogged and poorly installed English drain from years ago, and a sump pump that while it worked, never pumped water.). Given the investment we made in buying the house, we wanted to make sure we left no doubt in our mind that we were fixing it for the long haul so we could use the basement without worry of mold/mildew for our kids. We had NV Waterproofing install perimeter wide gutter guards, and a new sump pump system and drainage pipes. As soon as the work was done we got rain, and for the first time in the 4 months since we have lived here I saw the water that otherwise would be in our basement actually in the rear of our backyard by the discharge pipe. We have had a few more rains and even one snow and there is nothing better to look at then when I see the water that is coming out of the discharge pipe that I know otherwise would be pooling in my basement and cynderblocks walls, and how that was the case for many years before we moved in. Also, the team that did the work was extremely professional. We have 3 kids and pets and the team was extremely courteous. We tried to stay out of their way during the week they were doing the work, however there were times when we couldn't and the team was extremely courteous and professional. The team lead did an amazing job of explaining to me the work he was going to do, showing me updates, and then afterwards explaining in detail what was done, why it was done, and things for me to look for for in the future. I would highly recommend NV Waterproofing to others based on my experience with them. They did high quality work and were extremely professional."

"Chris G and John did an excellent job! DB’s Plumbing and Drain is an outstanding company. This job may seem a bit expensive but I ordered 2 higher end toilets and they had to deliver, install, and haul away old toilets. I have also hired them in the past to fix my water heater. All the technicians I’ve met are very professional and punctual! I will definitely hire for any future work!"

"Jan. 20, 2021 We recently needed to have a major foundation issue looked at and evaluated prior to purchasing a house in Stephens City. Tony, from Lux, showed up before the appointed time, was very professional, was thorough in evaluating the foundation issue, took pics of the area in question, was very knowledgeable and easy to talk to about the issue, and he provided a very detailed report with photos. His evaluation was clear and gave us confidence enough to purchase the property. We would highly recommend this company! T.C. Stephens City"

"Clifton Contracting does outstanding work. The drainage and water erosion solution installed by Clifton Contracting at our home gives us peace of mind, no matter how heavy the rainfall. After a neighbor on ground higher than us installed yard drains for his gutters that were directed at us, we were inundated with water every rain event. Since Clifton's drainage solution, we have no problems. Their work was efficient, professional and well worth the reasonable cost."

"Rudy Gonzalez, Jose Reyes and Jose Vasquez did fantastic work on our home foundation repair project. I'd highly recommend this team for your home foundation repair."

Many thanks to this family run business. Tech Dominic Webb 5 STARS"

"My recently-purchased townhome in Reston backs to woods and the unfenced backyard was a *mess* with overgrown weeds & bushes, rampant poison ivy, and many fallen trees. My husband and I wanted to transform it into an area where our dog could roam free and we could make use of the space too. First step was to clear everything out, and then we planned to install a fence. I initially called ET Landscaping and Lawn Care for a quote just to clean out all the weeds, bushes, poison ivy, fallen trees, etc. Julio was happy to come out to provide a free estimate, even with COVID-19 going on. When Julio arrived there was some standing water from recent rain and he explaned that we'd have some drainage & erosion issues if we cleared everything down to bare earth and left it like that while we formulated a plan for sod, mulch, landscaping, etc. After a few more visits to discuss options -- first with me and then with my husband too -- we ended up getting a quote that included labor & materials for: yard clearing, removal of a few dead and/or heavily leaning trees, installing a French drain through the wettest area, re-routing PVC drainage pipes to the edge of the yard (originally dead-ended in the middle of the yard), about 600 square feet of sod, 30 cubic yards of mulch, and 160 linear feet of board-on-board fencing. While it was more than we anticipated spending on the backyard at this time, we felt we were in good hands with Julio & felt his price was fair. From contract signing to job completion was about 6 weeks. However, most of this time was waiting for wood! Due to COVID-19, there is a significant shortage of pressure-treated pine in our area & Julio had a really tough time finding enough wood for our fence from a single supplier. He kept me informed at least weekly (sometimes more often than that!) about his search. As soon as he confirmed that the materials would be available within the following 2 weeks, his landscaping crew came to do their portion of the work. The four-man landscaping crew was here 3 times: one day to clear the big stuff; another full day to clear all the smaller stuff, install the french drain, lay the sod, spread the mulch, etc.; and another few hours on a third day to finish up. The following week, his fencing crew (3 men and 1 woman) completed the entire fence in one day! Both of his crews worked quickly but didn't rush. Our yard looks so much better!! Julio and his landscaping & fencing crews were all friendly and knowledgeable about the work they were performing. They truly are professionals! I left them to their work while doing other things around the house or working from home. I never had any concerns about whether the work would be done how I wanted it or whether they were doing a good job. Also, we are not an end unit and the only way to access our property is through the yard of one neighbor who hates people walking through his yard. Julio had his crews use a pathway that was less convenient & not as easy to get materials/tools through, but disturbed our neighbor a little less. Thank you Julio!"

"Highly recommend this company! We hired them twice this year for two different projects. On both occasions, we received OUTSTANDING service! They built our custom wet bar, finished a portion of our basement and installed an infrared sauna. We get compliments on our basement everything we entertain. The attention to detail and craftsmanship is just marvelous. The owner and his crew are very professional. They kept us informed every day on the progress and next steps. On time and very neat. We even hired them for some handyman projects such as installing a ceiling lamp and installing a TV. We will continue to use them for all our household renovations and repairs. Finally, a company that not only delivers excellent service but does EXCELLENT work!"
