General building contractor who currently works independently and is looking to grow business to hire one employee. I do mostly carpentry and cabinet making my self. I do perform other trades depending on how much there is. I have good dependable subcontractors that I call when necessary. Depending on the size of the job, I ask for down payment and progress payments or may just wait to bill the job once it is complete.

"Terry was the absolute worst contractor I've ever dealt with in my entire life. Personally having extensive construction background, I had initially hired Terry because he seemed to be knowledgeable in the proposed work and was very fast in responding to all my inquiries when compared to other potential contractors (most never ever responded to me). My job consisted of over 3500 sqft of concrete work both in both the front and backyard, a 40 ft retaining wall, 2000 sqft of artificial grass and landscape rocks in the front.  Needless to say, the honeymoon was over after the second week of the job (it was a two month project). Throughout the project, Terry would get mad at me when I would question procedures that were done for my project. I would always create my sentences as questions whereas he took them as "orders". He would respond back aggressively "Why are you telling me how to do my job?" Huh? I'm paying you lots of money to have this done to my satisfaction. All my questions had some merit. It was getting bad with his attitude that he would start asking me "Why are you always home?" Hello! It's COVID and Iwork from home now.  The straw that finally broke the camel's back was when I questioned the obvious awful seam work on the artificial grass installation he was performing (he was using a *scissor* to cut the seams LOL) where there were ½” inch gaps and overlaps along the entire seam where two of the turfs connected. He  got so mad at me for asking if he was going the leave the seams that way and he responded by physically threatening me as well as putting a lien on my house and coming back to tear down everything he had done. Itgot to the point where we had to call the police to personally escort Terry(and his equipment) off my property. We are currently pursuing legal actions against him. I usually write reviews for work well done, but in this case this was the absolute other extreme. I just want to make sure that "future" customers do not experience the same bad experience as what I've gone through.  Terry may sound like a nice guy when interacting with him in the beginning (after all he is trying tow in your business), but the Mr. Hyde side will show up if you start asking questions. Don’t believe anything this wolf in sheep’s clothing says (or what he posts on his website or social media accounts)…..  I predict more negative reviews will follow……"

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Ione, CA

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.
