"We have had an intermittant water problem in our basement primarily when it rains heavily in the Winter. I was very happy with the quick response from Mike Sears when we initially called to ask about repairing a water leak problem in our basement. Mike explained how his proposed solution would work to alleviate the water problem. Mike left us with a detailed estimate and informational materials about the proposed repair. He also explained what wasn't included in the job such as tearing out the current sheetrock, insulation and framing from the wall. I did this part of the work and the reconstruction after the drain had been installed. We spoke to Mike a few days later, agreed to the price and set a date for the repair. On the scheduled date, two of Mikes employees arrived on time and began to prep for the repair. They did a good job of hanging plastic sheeting around their work area so that the dirt and dust would not get into the rest of the basement. We had discovered a crack in the basement wall which wasn't visible when the original estimate was given. Scott Lee gave us a written estimate to repair it with carbon-fiber cloth and sealant. While this was an unexpected expense, there was no reason to put in a drain and leave a crack in the wall. Taking out a basement floor with a jackhammer and installing a drain is a hard, dirty job. Scott and his co-worker completed this job in about 6 1/2 hours including the additional work for the wall crack. They did a good job of cleaning up the old concrete and all working materials Scott explained how the pump would work when the water table under the house rose. My only issue with quality was the uneven concrete finish work on the basement floor above the drain. Because this was leveled by hand, there is a somewhat noticeable depression in this area of the floor. Overall, I am happy with the work and looking forward to a dry basement when the rains come this spring.
"We recently had a complete roof replacement. Before proceeding, we did comprehensive research of area companies and Vista came out on top, with good reason! All appointments were not only on time but were extremely punctual. We met first with Product Specialist Holly, who was enthusiastic, very knowledgeable and helpful. While at our home assessing the proposed job, Project manager Rick explained the entire process in layman's terms. The day of the job, Project Supervisor Marc arrived early and went over the entire job with the crew. All company representatives left us with a business card with their cell #'s to call if we required anything. The installation crew was amazing. They arrived early and began immediately. They were no nonsense, very focused and, worked like a well oiled machine. All Vista team members were polite and respectful of my special request to be cognizant around some of my more cherished trees & shrubs. Vista was fastidious in their care for my home and lawn, not one speck of debris was left behind. Vista, the installation crew, company representatives, everyone, exceeded our expectations. Vista stands behind their work and products. If you wish to relax after a major home improvement project knowing the job was done correctly, you will want to consider Vista. Dan & Kim Belchertown"

"Well, the first time the replacement was ordered it was the wrong one, which of course, delayed the installation a week. When it was finally installed I had to pay an additional $850 for code upgrades. This I was not informed of by Home Shield. Then we noticed that there was water on the garage floor and found that the pipe coming in from the wall was leaking at the wall so had to call the plumbing company back out to fix it. They first tried to say it was not their fault but since there wasn't a leak before they installed they did fix it. I have used Home Shield a few times before and never had a problem. Some of the companies they use are not the best so you have to research them before you commit. I have found HS service to be good if you do your homework. At the end of the day I was without hot water for almost 3 weeks but it was do to the plumbing company they sent out."

Septic tanks can clog if they aren’t pumped every few years since solid waste accumulates inside of them.

Most blockages can be cleared in 1-3 hours, but severe issues may take longer.
Vinegar is better for an AC drain line because it’s less corrosive and won’t damage the pipes. It’s also a safer and easier product to use. Bleach should not be used on your AC drain line because it can corrode your pipes and harm the evaporator coil in your air conditioner.
