"DO NOT USE: We were quoted $6K for a shower kit install. Upon completion of the work, it was immediately apparent that the installation was defective and did not meet acceptable industry standards. Specifically: No water membrane was installed behind the shower kit, rendering the installation non-compliant with waterproofing best practices. No caulking was applied to seal seams, leaving the installation vulnerable to water intrusion and damage. The walls and surrounding trim were not plumb, which made it impossible to install a functioning shower door. A McLendon's supervisor subsequently inspected the installation onsite and acknowledged the poor workmanship. We were informed that the matter would be addressed, but despite multiple follow-up phone calls, we received no further communication or resolution from McLendon's. Nevertheless, the remaining balance of $3,100 was charged to our account without our authorization or consent and without any resolution."

"The MOST UNPROFESSIONAL SERVICE CALL, EVER! A twenty-something, long dark-haired guy showed up (no name, as he wouldn’t give it to me). He came in, asked me where the ant problem was. I showed him the trail, collection and path. I told him that I was recovering from pneumonia and didn’t have much voice left, so to “bear with me.” He walked away and told me that he disagrees with me. I questioned, “what do you mean? Why would you be contrary, while I’m telling you our issue-the townhouse neighbor and us, have been passing the ants, back and forth, for 7 years. He told me I was wrong, and they all just hatched. I responded that we had treated our home for ants FOUR times, in the last 6 months. When showing him the area where we saw an ant hill, he was belligerent and condescending, asking me, “is it an ant hill or just a few ants?” I told him I was from the country and knew what an ant hill and ants looked like. This is where it went terribly disrespectful, condescending and offensive. He asked me, “so what kind of ants are these?” I responded, “beg your pardon? They are obviously sugar ants. Why am I being asked that?” He then smirked and said, “how do you know they are sugar ants? How can you tell?” I told him that I didn’t appreciate being called a liar, with regard to our issue and tested, as to my knowledge of ants. He responded, “well, you’re the expert!” I could not believe what I was hearing! Who was this person, to come into my home and disrespect me, in such a manner? I wonder if his behavior would have been the same, if it were my husband, he was dealing with. Every time I attempted to speak and explain our insect issue, he would interrupt me, with a rude and contrary statement. He pulled out our kitchen counter items, spotting a busy ant area. He began to spritz the area. I explained that the connected unit would get ants in their kitchen and within hours, I had them in my kitchen and back and forth we went. He dismissively questioned my honesty in stating that he questioned that happening. Again, I was so offended, I wanted to cry. On top of being sick, I had this guy insulting me, in my home! I told him there were also ants in the living and offered to show him where they were, he said, “nope, don’t need to see it.” What? I said to him, I’m not sure what’s going on here, but I don’t appreciate your continued insulting and interruption, when I am sick and trying to get this problem rectified. He, again, insulted me in saying, “well, I know I was out here a few times, and you wouldn’t let us in your place.” I responded, “I have never met you, nor have I ever requested pest services and denied entry. You are literally making that up and you know it.” He smirked and said argumentatively, “well, I’m sure it was you.” I told him, “I don’t appreciate you making up stories, in order to somehow justify that this ant problem has not been rectified. It’s completely inappropriate and unprofessional.” He again smirked. At this point, I told him, “Please just get this handled. I’m very sick and need to lie down.” The most shocking and unprofessional behavior yet? Here it comes…he picked up his bag, walked to the front door and said, “I’m leaving. Your grouchy and rude and let me know when you’re in a better mood and I may come back. Good God, I felt like I was in the twilight zone. I said to him, “this is ridiculous. You don’t get to tear my kitchen apart and then leave, without doing the job? No one is giving you a hard time. What is the matter with you?” He walked out the door. I asked after him, “can you at least leave the ant traps?” He did not even both to turn around and said, “Nope! I didn’t even bring em’.” Wow! He sat out in his truck, for 25 minutes, before pulling off. I am contacting the BBB, the complex management, where we live, and the company owner. The behavior of this pest control representative, made this 59 year old, sick woman, feel disrespected, insulted, discriminated against and verbally abused. This type of behavior, especially inside someone’s home, where you are a guest, cannot happen. I’m not generally intimidated, but felt very unsafe, with this pest guy. It is now the middle of the night, and, with pneumonia, I had to clean up the ants and disinfect the area, that he left unattended, and still have ants, all over my kitchen. Absolutely unprofessional and unacceptable. I am sure your company does not advocate for this type of black mark on your reputation and look forward to hearing from you regarding this unprofessional experience."

"Outside line from laundry was relined and an outside clean-out was installed- work was done in 2014. When drain line started backing up recently, I had a different company come out to clear the drain, thinking it was a simple matter of hair and lint build-up. They were unable to clear the drain, because they discovered that the drain was broken and filled with mud! My understanding is that a reline should last quite a bit longer than 6 years. I called NW sewer on December 29 and it's been nearly two weeks and I haven't received the promised call back from the owner."

"At every step along the way they were thorough and professional. The estimator provided a very detailed scope and quote and patiently answered my questions. The installation crew was quick, efficient, friendly, and were so meticulous with their prep that up you couldn't even tell they were here after they left. I also appreciated the "after-photos" they sent me, it looks great!"

"Allied put an interior drainage system in my basement several years ago. Paul is a fast-talking, conniving man who will take no responsibility ever, for any work that was done poorly even with a warranty. He will deny, deny, deny endlessley and come up with the most ridiculous things and will try turn everything around on you no matter what it is. I had him out within the first year after the project because the concrete was cracking. Insects were coming in through my basement floor which used to be in great condition before they cut it and did poor concrete work. At that time he said it was fine and left. I should have known that now, several years later, when I had him out again because the concrete is even worse and has raised up about 1/8 of an inch, that he would have the same useless response. I'm about to install tile and the tile installer has told me that it's going to crack the tile especially because it's continuing to move. Paul will say anything to avoid responsibility. It must be a tree root, he said, even though there are no trees anywhere around. Then he'll say that it's not cracking even though I and others can see it with our eyes. Then he'll say that he can fix it for a fee even though I have a 10 year warranty. Then he'll say concrete cracks, even though the rest of the concrete in the basement is 100 years old and is not cracked, nor are the other areas that they did. Just the one area that he's denying is even cracked. Then he'll say well, it must be your floor that's moving, nothing is wrong with the concrete we did. No, my original floor is still in the same place and looks great, to which he says, how do I know? Don't waste your time. Go with a different company. If things go wrong, you can't rely on this company to do the right thing and your warranty is useless.. I had to tell Paul to get out of my house because he was yelling at me and talking down to me like I must be stupid as if I must be seeing a crack that doesn't really exist. Other contractors who have looked at it said it should not be cracking. And the contractor who was here asked Paul if they used rebar, to which Paul replied no, nobody ever does. Another lie. Then he couldn't believe that I told him to get out of my house. If you're going to be an ahole, expect to receive it in return. As he was going out the door, he turned and demanded to know what I do for a living. I had to tell him to get out of my house again. It doesn't matter what I do Paul, but I can tell you that I take responsibility for the services I provide and I do not lie to my clients faces. What a rude little man and completely incapable of doing the right thing. I already knew that before I had him out the second time. Don't let him fool you when he comes out to give you the initial bid. He's real helpful when he's going to get money out of you but he is slimy and conniving and cannot be trusted when things go wrong. The pictures are from today. The epoxy was just put on the other day by the tile guys but they think that it's hollow underneath. When they tap on it it feels hollow and moves a bit like there's no gravel under it and the epoxy just went in endlessly for the same reason so the gap can't be filled because there's nothing inside of there. But of course Paul said that's not true either. They also sloped a corner upward which is going to affect doing flooring and then Paul denied that too and said that it's not really like that I'm just making it up. Then he told me it must have already been like that. I told him it wasn't. He said well how do you know that, and that he doesnt don't know that so therefore it must not have been. Because it's my house Paul and I saw the floor before you got to it and ruined the Integrity of it. There was a contractor there with me witnessing all of this rediculousness and he could not believe this man lying to our faces and taking no responsibility."

"I had a very good experience with this company, from the quote derivation process all the way to mold remediation project completion (which included reconstruction of the impacted area - in this case the utility closet and flooring/subflooring adjacent to that room). The team was hardworking, effective, and committed to the terms of the contract to get the job done!"

"We used American Crawlspace extensively, dealing with insulation for our attic, crawlspace, and rodent exclusion, for around 8k of work. Our experience went from 5/5, to 1/5, and settled on 3/5. First, the good things. The folks working at American Crawlspace, especially their managers and inspectors, are very nice, thoughtful individuals. Their price is excellent, especially for rodent exclusion, which is 2-3x under what another well rated competitor might charge. Now, our opinion on the not so good parts. The work for rat exclusion had lots of misses - the foundation mesh covers were installed with gaps that were big enough to allow a rat in after installation, and one vent cover was not replaced at all, and other similar issues abounded. Unless you examine all the areas yourself, or hire an inspector to validate, we suspect that similar issues will exist for you. It turned out to be a low quality patch job for the parts that were done. Fast forward to 3 years later, and a rat decided to take advantage of this and enter our home at night, which we recorded on a camera. We got both American Crawlspace, and another company, to identify what needed to be done, and both inspections identified issues and gaps with the exclusion work previously done. The American Crawlspace owners offered a refund on the pest exclusion work at this point, which was a nice thing to do considering that it was past their warranty period. But given that we did this work preventatively, it's sort of like having the mechanic refund your oil change when it turns out used the wrong kind and the engine breaks down. To be fair, they did also offer to review the work again and fix it if we preferred that, but based on an updated analysis of what they thought needed to be done. This might seem reasonable, until we consider that their inspection identified only some of the issues of the more thorough other inspection. In addition, using better quality materials to prevent failures, such as $50 worth of metal flashing, to fix some plywood joints we had previously paid to have secured by them and which had now failed was considered overkill. On offer was essentially what sounded much like another patch job. This brings to mind that old saying fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. For rat exclusion work, we fooled ourselves into believing that it was possible to get good quality work done at a good price. We got exactly what we paid for."

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Everett, WA

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.
