"Brandon and Matt did a fantastic job repairing and leveling several cracks in the sidewalk in front of my business. They were prompt, professional, and thorough. I couldn?t be more pleased. I highly recommend Groundworks and would definitely use them again."

"Do not use this company for electrical work. I had a breaker replaced today around 2:40 pm and by 4:45 pm I walked to the back of my house and smelled a strong smoke order. I found that an outlet was smoking and there was absolutely nothing plugged into it or any other outlet in the room. I called conway immediately. I was told by the first agent that a service person would be back at my house between 6 pm and 9 pm tonight. Immediately after the call I received a text at 5:07 stating that my appointment has been scheduled for Thursday between 10 am and 2 pm. I called conway 4 additional times to request that someone come out tonight for safety reasons. Every time the representatives told me that they were escalating my request. What that means is my emergency was not their issue. Finally at 7pm I called again and was told by an agent that no one would be able to come tonight and they were escalating my request to have someone to come in the morning. Not only did the phone agents lie"

"Where to start? First, I would rate him zero out of 5 if I could. This problem I?ve had since February and he refuses to contact me or get back in touch with me for a problem he created. I will never hire this person again because he is so unprofessional. My tankless water heater has been malfunctioning?. The hot water turns cold after a few minutes?. Both in the shower and when washing dishes. I don?t like taking a cold shower, and I bet Cody wouldn?t be happy about taking a cold shower every day. This happens EVERY TIME I get in the shower. Cody has been contacted several times. When he did respond, he said he would try to contact the store where he purchased it. I received no update. Another time when he responded, he said he would try to contact the manufacturer. Still no update. Now he won?t respond at all! I?ve gotten several people to contact him as well and he will respond once or twice then nothing after that. This is so unprofessional and should be rectified asap!"

"We paid them about $8k in 2008 to fix foundation and install about 10 adjustable 'lifetime warranted' pilings. No, it did not fix problem. So we had to pay them another $10k in 2012 when (lo and behold) they had to put in, yes, another 10 pilings (see, uhm, apparently, the problem was not with the 'warranted' pilings, oh noooo, it needed MORE pilings!). Again we had to pay EXTRA for the 'Lifetime Transferrable Warranty'. Guess what? It did not fix the problem! We just called them out again here in summer 2022, and (lo and behold) they need to put in 20 more pilings (you see, as a layman, apparently I just do not understand that the problem is not with the warranted pilings, noooo, it needs MORE pilings). This time the bill is $23k, you read it right, $23,000.00 and I was just about to pay it too, except for one thing... the greedy guts tried to slip in $3,000 of 'engineering' which when I questioned it was to cover work that should be warranted. Amber and Scotty are not going to cover the warranty on adjustments to 13 pilings previously installed, for which I paid thousands extra for the Lifetime Transferrable Warranty. So, I got on the buggy ride, I was determined to ride it out, why? So I could have a piece of paper called a Lifetime Transferrable Warranty to hand to a realtor if I ever sell the house. I know it is worthless now, less than worthless, it is downright expensive worthlessness. RUN don't walk RUN!!!!!!!!!! This is a very expensive charade with no end, just deeper and deeper sunk cost purveyed by dishonest operators who DO NOT HONOR their warranty on so-called work that they KNOW good and well does not WORK, it never fixes the problem, just sets you up for more costly return visits."

"ought a Lennox A/C system (through COSTCO) and Mitch Wright, Plumbing, Heating, & Air was the contractor assigned. I delayed posting review to allow time to correct “mistakes”, but they have done nothing. Mitch Wright sent a salesman out who was not on time for the first visit, so a second visit was required. He wasn't on time for the second visit either. He wrote me a quote for 16 & 18 SEER system, but the major systems stated “Model and efficiencies may vary”. I told the salesman I needed a quote with model numbers, and if I pay for a 16 or 18 SEER2 system, I expect to get a 16 or 18 SEER2 system. He provided an updated quote and assured me I would receive the efficiency I ordered. I accepted the offer. I told him I expect model numbers to match on install day. Mitch Wright installed different models of equipment (outdoor A/C unit, furnace, and thermostat). When I informed installers about the error with the outside A/C unit, they claimed it was an upgrade. When I informed the salesman of the error, he told me not to look at the ENERGY GUIDE and that they shouldn’t add those because they don’t mean anything. I told him the model number was wrong, and he brushed me off, telling me to contact someone else. I bought a low-NOx furnace ML180UH090XE48BK, but Mitch Wright decided to install a standard furnace ML180UH090E48BK. No idea the cost difference, but generally, low NOX costs more and is better for air. I am up in the middle of the night because the furnace exhaust through the roof is leaking due to the poor craftsmanship of Mitch Wright Installers. Their sloppy installation is damaging my property! I cleaned up water after discovering a leak to prevent further property damage and placed towels to catch rain that drips through. The furnace has new code flashing. The installers did not properly seal the air handler, and condensation formed at the air leaks. Water leaked all around the air handler and into the furnace. I had to seal the air handler that evening to prevent (further) water damage to the furnace. All the duct connections to the air handler were leaking air and causing condensation as well, requiring me to fix them. Air was leaking at the connection on the inlet side just past the air handler, sending unfiltered air into the blower. The furnace developed a fault code on the same day as installation. This all occurred on Thursday, June 26 2025. Mitch Wright has done nothing to correct their “mistake”. All they did was send this email: “I do apologize for the mishap between EL16KC1-047 and the EL16KC1-048. We are actively looking into the situation to provide a resolution to you and your home. We are currently discussing the differences between the 047 and the 048 model that you received. In the past, Lennox has substituted both of these models out due to product availability. As of right now the response we have received from Lennox is that the 047 model was created to hit different targets, within different market requirements. Our marketing standard is the 048 model. We wanted to contact you before the weekend to assure you that we are working on it. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to call our office or email us back. Thank you for trusting us with this matter.” Don’t trust these people with your home! Look at the Yelp reviews; they offer another perspective of this company."

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Byhalia, MS

Expect a well-built French drain to last 30 to 40 years. By channeling both surface- and ground-water away from your foundation, the system relieves hydrostatic pressure and helps prevent costly structural damage. Choose a pipe with a quality cloth filter to keep sediment out and extend the drain’s life. A quick annual inspection and routine cleanouts will keep water flowing freely, ensuring the system continues to protect your home for years to come.

Most French drains sit two feet below grade, but depth ultimately depends on the problem you’re solving. For puddling rainwater or snowmelt, a shallow curtain drain at lawn level often does the trick. To handle rising groundwater, pros dig deeper, down to the footing, and run the pipe beneath the basement slab. A drainage contractor will determine the optimal depth for your specific soil conditions and water issues.

A properly installed interior French drain captures water at the slab, channels it to a sump pit, and directs it safely outside, preventing basement floods before they occur. Because the pipe sits just under the floor edge, a plumber can reach it easily for cleaning or repairs. Pairing the drain with a reliable sump pump gives you the best long-term protection.

Hire a contractor who installs drainage systems every day—typically a foundation specialist, drainage contractor, experienced landscaper, or plumber with waterproofing experience. These pros understand slope, soil, and local codes, and they have the equipment to trench safely around utilities. Ask for references and photos of recent jobs to be sure they can design a system that keeps water off your foundation for decades.

Once the drain is in, patch the yard by reseeding bare spots or replacing plants the crew removed. Inside, look for ways to add value—finishing the basement or upgrading interior waterproofing while the space is open often costs less now than later. Schedule a quick annual checkup to flush sediment and confirm the pipe and sump pump are clear. Consistent maintenance ensures the drain functions properly and protects your investment.

Most policies don’t cover the cost of repairing a French drain itself, but they may provide coverage for water damage if the system fails. Coverage varies by insurer, so be sure to read the fine print or contact your agent before any issues arise. If you live in a high-risk flood zone, consider a separate flood policy to close the gap. Knowing your coverage in advance helps you budget for repairs and avoid unexpected costs.
