"​Great experience with Eddie. He responded fast, kept his word on timing, and got the job done efficiently. After several other plumbers failed to show, I really appreciated his professionalism and fair pricing. Five stars!"

"Called GANZ about a 2 inch PVC pipe (for sink venting) between the 1st and 2nd floor dripping water when raining. * Tech came and examined all other possibilities such as toilets and roofs. Then cut drywall to examine further. * Charged $98 total for dispatch plus half-hour diagnosis, but NO repair done as he explained to me that the leak could only be fixed when it is actually leaking/dripping water so that the fix could be tested. * Tech was punctual, polite, and clean."

"There are not enough good things I can say about this company, from their plumbers to their customer service they are A++!I had a water purification whole home system installed by DOP, and one of the PVC pipe sections split open in the middle of the night inside my too full garage, I sent a message to our plumber very early in the morning when I realized and got an almost immediate response that he'd be here ASAP, he arrived before 7 to start fixing with a crew of 2 to help me take out all the things in the garage, clean and put them back. All throughout Eddie, my rep, was in touch with me sitting me they'd make things right, but I could not have imagined that they went as far as sending someone else a week later to help me move or take away any more things that I needed. This level of service is not one I see often, thank you Douglas Orr Plumbing!"

"I bought a house in Deerfield Beach, FL in July of 2020, and a sewer scope completed at the time of the home inspection revealed that the cast iron pipes under the house were from the 1960’s and all needed to be replaced. I hired A1 Underground Plumbing in August 2020 to help me with this project, and they completed the project in less than a week, and after they left, it appeared that all toilets were flushing, the shower and the kitchen sink were draining, and the washing machine in the laundry room was functional. I paid them $20K for the job, and was very happy with the completed project……or so I thought. Fast forward to February 2020. We were in the yard and noticed an exposed cast-iron pipe that had lifted above the grass, and appeared to have water running through it. From what we could tell, the lawn company must have run over this pipe with a mower and broke a plastic fitting over the pipe, and this exposed the pipe for us to see the water flowing through it. The only source of this water had to be from the washing machine, because it was the only water running at the time. I immediately contacted A1 Underground Plumbing, and talked to Beau Fuller, and let him know that I thought a pipe got missed when they were replacing all of the pipes back in August. He agreed to come back to the house to take a look at it, but he advised me that he thought a pipe did not get missed and that there must be another explanation. I met Beau at my house on March 8th, and he took a look at the exposed pipe, and the washing machine drain hose, and came to the conclusion that the washing machine drain hose was not draining water into the new PVC pipes installed by A1 Underground Plumbing, but instead, was draining through another pipe that had NOT been replaced, and must have been installed by a previous owner of the home. I didn’t think this would be a problem to get fixed, so I started working with Beau to schedule a repair to get the washing machine hose draining into the proper PVC pipe that was installed by A1 Underground Plumbing. It was at this point that Beau informed me that the cost of this repair would be in the ballpark of $450. I replied to him that I just paid $20K for all of the plumbing pipes to be replaced and to be functional, and I wasn’t interested in paying additional money for repairs that should have been taken care of when all the pipes were replaced. This reply set off an exchange of text messages that completely changed my attitude towards A1 Underground Plumbing and Beau Fuller. He immediately took offense to my reply, and felt that I insulted him for suggesting that I wasn’t interested in paying more money to him. He advised me that there was no way for him to know about the pipe that was “illegally installed,” and that my house had a “rigged connection.” Without any consideration to resolve this problem, he completely justified his work and told me that the “scope of work” was completed, and that “everything I paid for is what I got.” What I know is that I paid $20K, and my expectation was to have all water exiting the house flowing to the sewer. They tested all the toilets, the shower drain, and the kitchen sink, and made sure that these drain lines were all functional and draining properly. Why not test the washing machine drain line?? Instead, Beau Fuller repeatedly told me that testing a washing machine drain hose is outside of his scope of work. He accused me of being a “bad person,” and that I was completely “unreasonable” for requesting him to help correct a problem that he caused. He indicated that I “should have known” my house was rigged. Insulting me, for what I would consider a reasonable request, is a great way to lose me as a customer and to write this review to share my experience. Best of luck to anyone who chooses to use A1 Underground Plumbing, but be prepared that you will NOT be helped if something goes wrong with your plumbing system in the future."

"I hired Ben for a small job- hanging closet bifold doors. He was 1.5 hours late. He did the job quickly but installed handles wrong because he eyeballed it instead of actually measuring. He asked for cash. I gave him a large bill and he agreed to cash app change. The change never came and now he avoids all text messages and calls. The ironic part is I was going to give him multiple other jobs needing to be done around the house worth way more to him than what he owes me. The only positive is that I learned quickly he is not trustworthy or detail oriented. I would not recommend. "

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Homestead, 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.
