"It was a great experience with QBS. They actually moved up our start date and finished earlier than expected. It was great experience from the beginning and the work was quality. I would recommend QBS for waterproofing your basement."

"Mid-State Basement Systems came highly recommended by a good friend from Buffalo, NY and they did not disappoint. From start to finish they were very professional yet personable. Larry & Phil in the initial stages of the basement inspection and a reasonable quote. Silvino and his team who done the actual work was incredible, done with absolute excellence. They were here when they said they would be and finished the job a day ahead of schedule. I am thoroughly pleased with this company, first class. I highly recommend them if you need work done on your basement.******"

"Chris & CJ from Stay Dry repaired a leak in our exterior gutter drain system that was originally installed by Stay Dry in 2021. They arrived on time and efficiently & neatly (had to dig to uncover about 12 ft of pipe) repaired the underground leak start to finish in about one hour, being careful not to damage nearby plants & flowers. This 5 star review is for Chris' & CJ's performance only. Cost is unknown as our condo assn would handle costs, if any. Should be zero as this should be warranty work."

"I had OBA install outdoor french drains and new downspouts a couple of years before they waterproofed my basement. They were the only company I could find who did it all. Basement waterproofing included removing old, putting in new: full inside perimeter drainage, enlarge sump pit, 2 sump pumps, I-beams and carbon fiber straps. Added in brand new: battery backup for sump and vapor barrier on most affected wall. When my basement got wet a year later after the work was done, they didn't hesitate to schedule someone to inspect. If was heavy condensation, barely a thin puddle compared to 2 inches of flowing water. They had to rework a 6 ft section and add cement around the I-beams, each on their own call outs. They didn't charge because I have a lifetime warranty, transferable to the next owner. I'll be working with them again soon for a professional level dehumidifier."

"Excellent. We had other projects we wanted done, but they explained to us that installation of these fixtures (and a new outlet) would involved drywall being cut and they wanted us to know this before starting.  We decided this wasn't worth doing. 
They arrived for the estimate a few minutes early, and arrived the day to work right on time. Matt did the installation, and he was professional, courteous, neat and clean. He was only there 1/2  a day.

"After getting our home inspection done, our realtor recommended we use this company to handle our basement needs (remediating a large crack, installing a new radon system, and prevent further issues with the basement cracking). They have been so wonderfully communicative, reasonably priced, and very professional. In fact, when we later discovered another problem that had not been previously planned, they inspected it and gave recommendations as to how to handle it. I would highly recommend them when dealing not only with mold but a variety of basement and foundation situations."

"This is what I posted on my neighborhood Facebook page: "If you’re looking for a landscape company, we HIGHLY recommend ANDERS LAWN & LANDSCAPE. We had a large strip of ongoing pooling of water along the side and back of our yard, the grade in our yard was not draining the water to the sewer as it should. Knowing it would require a lot of dirt to build up and drain properly, as well as grass seed, we put out requests for quotes. Chad with Anders was the first to call and promptly came out that day. After receiving several estimates, we went with Anders. They were professional, on time and took pride in their work. Chad continued communication, which is key with me, before and even after the job was complete to make sure we were satisfied. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.""

"Devin does such good work! We used to have flooding in our front yard and he regraded the whole thing and ran drainage down to the culvert. He reseeded the yard and came to check on it after the first rain. He build us a gorgeous cedar fence around the aerating system and took out our grave driveway and put down a ground asphalt that settles and gives a really smooth drive with no sealing necessary. This work was done in good time and a lot of attention to detail. Anyone would be lucky to hire Devin. We feel like we have a new house!"

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Heath, OH

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.
