"Cheryl was great to work with. Very professional and responsive and I would definitely hire again and/or recommend to friends and family. Rated "good" on punctuality because of a little delay in getting all the debris picked up."

"We had 1 issue after installation and they came out right away & fixed it. Great attitudes and were on time as scheduled. Very professional crew. We had just remodeled the basement for 1100 sq ft living space to be added to the home, so I didn’t expect the basement to be such a mess afterwards, so would recommend them emphasize that the client will be cleaning all that up after the install. Very messy after the foundation was dug up around the whole inside perimeter. We still haven’t had the money to replace the new flooring that was pulled up. I should have paid more attention to the contract. That’s on me, not them."

"They do an spectacular job. They do an excellent job.  We have had so many comments about how pretty the yard looks.  We had no grass in the yard at all and now it looks like carpet grass."

"Date and price approx.  Too long and do not want to dig out paperwork.
When finished, toilet wasn't flushing efficiently and I asked the plumber to run a snake down it since the tile man had put a lot of old grout and other scrapings down the shower drain instead of hauling them away. He (the plumber) said it was not necessary. Several days later, I called General Plumbing to say the toilet still backed up when flushed and I still thought it should have been snaked. They came out and did so but wanted to charge me. I called the office and they agreed reluctantly not to charge. Plumber made it obvious that he was displeased about having to snake the toilet when he had said it was not necessary,  and about not getting to charge me, but the toilet worked fine after that.
Within a year, the caulking in the newly installed toilet was deteriorating but I did not call General Plumbing after their last reaction. 
This year when roaches started emerging from beneath the toilet and the flushing mechanism failed, I called a different plumber who pulled the toilet again. He said the toilet had  been set so that it was not touching the wax seal: thus the deteriorating caulk and roaches. He reset and recalled the toilet. No more roaches.
I had been using General for a number of years with great satisfaction (See my previous high ratings on Angie's list), but would unfortunately hesitate to use them now.

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Earle, AR

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.
