Description of Work: They called to set up an appointment right away but as this is their busy season I have to wait a week to have them come. They sent me out a pack of materials and now I will have them look at a few other problems I have in the house as well.

Description of Work: They were the only company I found that would replace only 1 wall of drain tile that wasn't working. So far there has been no more water leaking in the basement.

Description of Work: Put drain tile in by the outer wall of almost all of the basement. Also put baseboard drains in 2 other rooms. There is water still coming in |through the floor in the baseboard rooms. It isn't because of the baseboards so it must be coming up through the floor. One window was put in upside down. I guess the real test will be next spring.
