"My husband and I were very happy with the professional service we received from Eric Oliver. He came out to assess the cracks in our foundation. He was extremely knowledgeable not only about our foundation but on how we can keep the moisture out of our crawlspace. We would highly recommend him to anyone who needs their foundation and crawl space inspected."

"Went well. Damage to existing HVAC duct work during demo, and issues with the installed dehumidifier stretched the initial 1 week completion estimate to over three weeks. However there was a long holiday weekend involved. The Drying Company repaired all issues at their expense."
Unsealed porous foundation walls. Efflorescence has grown along the outside walls.
Plastic is laid out to protect the freshly pained walls and floor.
Open vents in the foundation walls allow outside air and moisture to infiltrate the crawl space, increasing the relative humidity and allowing mold spores to thrive inside.
Spray foam application in progress on warehouse walls.
The dirt floor is exposed, which will allow the moisture from the earth to rise uncontested into the crawl space, adding to the increase in relative humidity.

"Metropolitan Restoration Center Inc came and picked it up.  They had it for three or four weeks which was fine with me since I was in no rush to get it back.  It was beautiful.  I couldn't be more satisfied."

"The existing steps were too narrow for the porch. We wanted to make the front porch more of a focal point and attempt to accentuate the modest midcentury design of the house. Joseph Walls of Brick Solutions, came to our house within a couple of days from out initial phone call. He was professional and extremely interested in our project even though it was not a large project. He was willing to work in our time schedule and he kept us informed during the entire process. My only regret is that I did not find him sooner, but will only use him in the future!

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Gravity can make it difficult to make plumbing work in a garage if your plumbing is lower than your drainage point. Fortunately, there are ways to create drainage when adding a bathroom to a sunken garage. Plumbers will recommend using an upflush system that discharges into a pump from the back of the toilet.

There are a few possible sump pump drainage locations, including a neighborhood storm drain, into a creek or pond, or underground. Don’t let your sump pump water go into your sewer or septic system. Ideally, your drainage spot should be on a downhill slope that’s at least 10 to 20 feet away from your home’s foundation. Before choosing a location, check your local codes and regulations.

Yes, the air from a damp basement can travel up into your living area through a process called the stack effect, so moisture, mold spores, and other debris in your basement air can all decrease your indoor air quality on your main floors. Additionally, damp basements can promote the rotting of building materials, which can damage flooring, insulation, and framing on your first floor in addition to materials in the basement.

Thankfully, you do have a few sump pump backup options in case it fails. One option is a battery-powered backup sump pump. Another option is using a portable backup generator as a power supply for your sump pump. Unlike a battery-powered backup which has limited power, a generator can run around the clock for as long as you need it. 

Or you can opt for a water-powered backup pump, which uses your home’s water supply as a source of power. However, this may not be the best option if you find your house frequently has low water pressure.

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures proper drainage and reliability.
