"The original plan called for putting in interior braces to shore up the wall as there is a room over the exterior basement wall that needed repair, so anchor plates were likely to be problematic. Unfortunately, there was no choice but to use anchors due to the water drainage installed around the base of the basement. Bruce, CJ, and Kyle did not want to damage the drainage system by putting in interior braces, so they talked it over with their engineers to solve the problem. It was no easy task as they had dig very deep to get under the footers of the exterior room."

"I reached out them about a year ago to look at my basement. I needed help with an old existing waterproof system a different company had installed and also to have someone look at the foundation. Marty informed us that our old waterproof system was an open system and that we might have radon coming through it. Sure enough he was correct! We hired a radon specialist and he was able to install a mitigation system. Marty also inspected our walls and advised that our foundation is fine and we did not need anything done at this time. Other companies tried to sell us $10k+ worth of work. I appreciate his honesty and not just trying to sell us something that we didn't need."

"A few years ago, we purchased a home that had been partially flipped. Over the first several months that we lived in the home, we found that the previous owners had intentionally attempted to cover up many water issues in the basement and crawlspace. Over a three year period, we continued to find and uncover the many issues that the "flippers" attempted to hide. We initially reached out to Indiana Crawlspace Repair based on their Google reviews. Over the three year period, Larry, the owner came to our house a number of occasions to look at the issues as we found them. Larry was fantastic to work with. He's very down to earth and we never got the feeling that he was trying to just sell his services to us. He was sympathetic to the situation we were in and provided us help that was far beyond what we could have asked for. I don't imagine that there are many people/companies out there that would help us the way Larry did. Finally, after three years we decided to have our basement and crawlspace repaired once and for all. Larry's crew did a fantastic job on both parts. His guys were great to work with. They were hard-working, courteous and trustworthy. They were especially kind to one of our sons (10 yrs. old) because he loves all things construction and wanted to observe the work while it was in progress. For the first time since purchasing our home, we have a dry basement & crawlspace. We've never been able to utilize these areas like we had intended due to the constant water issue. We are very happy with the end result and would absolutely recommend Indiana Crawlspace Repair. We are beyond grateful for Larry, Erika (office admin) and the people he employs."

"Fantastic job! Three days from start to finish: minimal excavation and disruption to the yard and a friendly, fast, and professional team. They asked if they needed clarification for anything, were clear and prompt with communication, no run around trying to get them here. No more root-clogged pipes! It was fascinating to see them put in the new pipe liners and watch on the video as the machine cured the pipe in place. Thanks again to Steve, Chase, and Sam for their hard work and getting it done so well."

"No other outlets in the home were experiencing water flow issues. We had attempted to replace the cartridge valve ourselves, which resulted in a stripped out set screw in the shower handle. So, the first thing he had to do was clean up our mess. Upon investigation, the valve wasn't the problem, the problem was with parts that could only be accessed by cutting a hole in the wall in the adjacent room. He had to create an access panel in the wall. The technician was patient throughout the trouble shooting and repair process, and he replaced our existing plumbing with upgraded materials. <br />"

"They were professional and attentive to my questions. They were the only provider who responded to my request for a quote for service. They now have a plan for taking out screens and readjusting them, as well as for adjusting 2 gutters for better water flow in the fall. I know they will be ready to provide great service."

"OMG hire these people - they are GREAT! First they are very responsive. They call back and give you all the information you need. After the technician came to our house to diagnose the duct problem the owner called me and we talked about what work needed to be done and he gave me a rough estimate. When that changed due to new problems (our house is older) they called again. Great! I love working with people who communicate with me and are honest. The workers that came to our house were incredibly professional and nice. They were also extremely courteous. They were very thoughtful when moving the dryer and laundry, asking if where they put the work was alright with us. They cleaned-up after themselves too. Frankly I would love to have the company back into my house since they do other forms of construction. I would totally hire them again."

"We?ve now been through two rain showers and our initial <br /> impressions of Sure Seal have been confirmed: these guys did a great job on our <br /> roof! It was time for our 24 year-old roof and gutters to go ? to be taken off <br /> and replaced. Sure Seal did this, miraculously, in one working day! And, mind <br /> you, our house is not small. This was a sizable job. <br />  Working with these guys was a pleasure throughout. We met <br /> with 4 local contractors for bids and became less than impressed with the <br /> customer service (bids, promises, follow-up) from the other three. Sure Seal, <br /> on the other hand, met with us, followed up with answers to our questions, then <br /> scheduled the new roof in a timely and professional way. They delivered on everything <br /> that they said they would. <br />  What was perhaps most impressive was the work crew <br /> themselves. They arrived at the crack of dawn and stayed until dusk. We <br /> estimated that they only stopped for a 20-minute lunch. They worked hard, did a <br /> great job and didn?t leave a mess, which was in stark comparison to another <br /> contractor?s work in our immediate neighborhood. Also, in comparison with the <br /> other roofer?s work on our neighbors? roofs, Sure Seal?s price was very <br /> competitive.  <br /> <br />"

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Crothersville, IN

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.
