Called Boldt for a second bid and was astonished at the difference in price. The plumber came on time and was very professional and helpful. He explained everything he was doing and came up with a cheaper way to repair the leak at our well tank. He was extremely detail-oriented and a perfectionist, spending about 15 minutes shimming the toilet over the ceramic floor tile floor so it would be completely stable. He gave us suggestions for keeping our drains clean and dealing with a septic system. He wore booties over his shoes whenever he came into the house and cleaned up after himself, including carting away the old toilet and fixtures. The toilet and faucets work flawlessly, and the two leaks have been completely repaired. I can't imagine how the experience could have been better. I would definitely call Boldt Plumbing again and have already referred them to friends and neighbors. They're the best!

I thought that I would learn more about drainage and water control from my initial visit with this company. Since both my neighbors have sump pumps, I jumped the gun and assumed that I needed one. Then I talked to my uncle (who has remodeled several basements) and some old-timers in my neighborhood. I learned many things about drainage from them, such as the fact that water likes to flow vertically unless you have a soil like clay underneath. From the old-timers, I learned that I have bedrock underneath my house, and not peat like some parts of the neighborhood. I then looked at my neighbors houses and saw that they would not be able to control water next to their foundation because of the way their roofs are shaped. I have only been in my house for 2 years, so like I said I think I jumped the gun by signing a contract. I did have water during the summer of 2014. However, I did have a leaking chimney (now fixed) and a part of my landscaping that was not up to pair. For now I am going to fix some of my landscaping and clean my gutters and see what happens from there. I have not had any water in my basement this summer. Like I said, I think it would be great if these companies would pair with landscaping companies, or learn more about the soil types and history of water damage in the neighborhoods. I would've liked to have learned all of those things in my initial visit (type of soil underneath, history of water damaged basements in the area, etc...). It parallels doctors of today who just see a problem that needs to be fixed instead of looking at the patient as a whole. If I do ever need an interior drain tile system, I would probably still go with this company. They are very straightforward. I thought their price was reasonable. They also have an extremely good reputation in my neighborhood. They offered me $500 off if I scheduled in July, which was nice but also put a little bit of pressure on to quickly make a decision. I really wanted to finish my basement for a renter so I rushed my decision. For now I am going to be patient and not get this system until I fully understand why water would possibly come into my basement

He put in extra time to make sure the blockage was clear by running the sink on full blast and doing a super size cycle in the laundry machine. overall, a very good experience and I am confident the problem is solved now, because the floor drain does not back up with water at all now.

When John and his crew showed up to do the work he asked how I got it so exact. I told him it was cause he gave me the exact measurements. John then leveled the area and installed the form and re-bar. They came back to next day and poured the colored concrete and did the patterns, accents and covered the new concrete. The patio needed to wait 28 days to do the sealer. The one negative issue was we had to call him back to patch up a gap in the concrete they left at the base and some white and black spots left in the finish. John came back in the set time and fixed the spots and sealed the entire top surface. We are 99.9% happy with the final product so far.

FAQs for french drain service projects in Tainter Lake, WI
Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The cost to install a drain pipe is $600 on average, but the total can range between $150 and $2,000. Some cost factors that influence your project price include the type of drain, the area’s accessibility, the proximity of existing drain lines, and whether you’re installing a new drain or replacing an old one. Replacing the p-trap or s-trap under a single fixture will usually cost around $150, while replacing a main drain pipe can cost well over $2,000.
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.

We highly recommend leaving the work of replacing drain pipes to a professional plumber. Drain pipes are a key part of your plumbing system, and making mistakes during the installation or even using the wrong size pipes for your specific fixture can lead to an elevated risk of leaks and clogs. Additionally, drain pipes prevent harmful sewer gas from entering your home, so hiring a professional plumber is essential to keeping the risk of leaks and clogs low and avoid reducing your indoor air quality.
