"Olin Plumbing just finished replacing all of my old galvanized steel water pipes in my 1947 home. I could not be happier with the job they did! I would like to especially thank David for caring for my home like it was his own and doing such a great job on everything. I had numerous special requests, and I feel like he really went above and beyond. I have used Olin Plumbing several times over the years, and have always been happy with their price and service. So much so that I didn’t even get additional quotes for this job. Honestly, I hate writing reviews, but I am more than happy to write this review for such a great company!"

"**BUYER-BEWARE** we bought a home in 2016, Over the last month we discovered an increase in our water bill. After investigation, we discovered a silver canister near our pool equipment. The canister had Florida Water Treatment Dunedin FL on the device. We called to tell FWT Dunedin, it was leaking. The tech mentioned to turn two knobs on top of device to stop leak. We asked for removal of device on same call. A couple weeks later a person shows at our home and asks for $300 to remove device. We called Christine at FWT,. Christine was rude and hasty. We asked to speak to her manager Hilary. She stated Hilary was not available. She asked to put us on hold. Next, a person named Matt Zara, who identifed himself as the owner, takes the call. Matt Zara began to question our integrity immediately, by telling us the fee was discussed when we made the appointment. It was not. Matt Zarra stated his company has been in business for 74 years and we were, “Barking Up The Wrong Tree”. Matt called us hypocrites. He said his company does not want our business. He also mentioned we could not afford to pay the $300 and questioned us on asking about the fee. At no point were we not calm, we only wanted a solution on the surprise fee his company sprung on us.This $300 fee was surprising and misleading to us. Finally, the Tech spit on driveway while leaving home. **Our advice, find another company for this service."

"Believe Plumbing of 2312 W Kathleen St Tampa, FL 33607 had an advertised deal that I accepted on 10 April through my Angi account for a 799 Bradford White electric water heater install. I called Believe Plumbing the next working day, 11 April, at 0830 to confirm the price I got through Angi and I provided the redemption code ANGE-298C41DD2EE7). I asked if any extra fees or permits would be an additional cost and if I wanted to increase the size from 40 to 50 gallon what additional cost would apply. The business representative said the 799 dollar fee covered everything and that a 50 gallon unit would be the same 799 price. I also asked if they install the Bradford White brand but he was unsure, Bradford White brand is quoted in their offer deal I accepted. I asked to set up a service and install appointed ASAP as the current heater was leaking and nonfunctional. He confirmed my contact information and said service tech would call me. After 1pm I called back the representative was unsure of the appointment time but would check and call me back. After an hour with no call back I recalled and reached a different but nice lady would said she could not find any record of the service in the schedule and worked to fit me in the next day, 12 April, after 1 pm. I asked the service tech to call me once arrived to confirm if a 50 gallon unit would fit and to authorize the replacement as the property was currently rented. When I did not get a phone call in the afternoon of 12 April I again called Believe Plumbings office and asked about the status, I was told the service tech had already look at the unit and was at the supply warehouse picking up the heater. When I reminded them they needed to call for my authorization and discuss the 40 or 50 gallon size the representative said, “oh yea he should have called you.” I then asked to confirm the brand and was told it was “Estate” and not Bradford White. Sensing something didnt feel right and needing to ensure the repair was done as instructed I asked to speak with the owner about by difficulties. When the owner spoke with me he obviously was not told anything about my concerns and just asked, you want the install? I asked about the brand not being Bradford White as advertised and also total price, again sensing I was not getting the full truth. He said it is 1200 dollars either 40 or 50 gallon and the brand is “Estate” and not Bradford White, a better brand. When I told him I confirm within his office the Angi price Monday morning of 799 he said that is not valid and Angi should not have that price active. He offered no reply why his staff would not tell me the correct price until I was able to talk with him and would not even consider any consideration for a price reduction due to the circumstances, even though he still lists a 5 percent discount on the Angi site, nor did he offer a military discount (which he offers on his claimed Yelp business page). He did say that they would install a water heater for 450 if I wanted to buy one locally like Home Depot or Lowes, but they will cost you 800 to 900 so 1200 is a good price. Actually an AO Smith brand 50 gallon equivalent water heater from Lowes cost under 600, after military 10 percent discount. AO Smith makes to lower end “Estate” brand heaters as well. Home Depot has Rheem 50 gallon for under 475 after military discount, all offer same 6 year warranty same as Estate. Faced with need to complete the job that had already been delayed I told him the use the 50 gallon heater but that the bait and switch pricing was not acceptable. I was invoiced for 1200 with extra 3.92 percent charge if I want to use a credit card, something never disclosed as payments options state “Visa, Discover, Check” Based on my experience it is hard the believe what Believe Plumbing tells you - even after giving the owner an opportunity to address the issue and make things right."

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Davenport, FL

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.
