"I had tight time constraints and Sundry Waterproofing delivered!
A previous plumber had dug 5-6 feet below the dirt line and made some holes in my foundation to fix a sewer drain issue.  Unfortunately, the plumber never finished the job and left me with several holes in my foundation and a pile of dirt in my driveway.  
Upon my call, Sundry came out the next day and gave a reasonable quote to fix this, as well as replace some insufficient vapor barriers in my crawl spaces.  I agreed and they were able to schedule the job quickly.
On service day, the work crew, headed by William, arrived on time and got to work.  The crew (especially William) was very professional and got the job done in about 3 hours.  
I thank William and his crew for a job well done, and Curt (the owner) for his flexibility.  I highly recommended these folks.

"sales rep was no nonsense and didn't waste our time with talking up their service, which I appreciate greatly. Workers were all very nice, efficient and cleaned up everything well. Soon after we had the same water flooding our garage, they came back w/o problem replaced area witha solid wall opposed to previos open wall, still continued to flood, they sent out original rep who quoted another $1100 to add more drainage system where i originally pointed out i suspected was part of the trouble. After speaking with HA rep and owner only the owner finally agreed to add the extra piece as I pointed out THEY told us what was done would fix the issue and we didn't mind paying a small additional fee. They added the extra piece and still now after more heavy rains we have water coming in even though it is greatly reduced and yet city inspector states it's not their problem either, so i guess it's just an unfixable problem created by God??? It's a 30+ old subdivision but still fairly flat, God help anyone needing a system ina really hilly property."

"I was hoping to see what was installed at every stage of the process. Feel a little in the dark about what is buried underneath the concrete and the process. Could not reach the sales person to ask questions after job was booked. There was confusion about what was to be done exactly. The workers were diligent and helpful wiith moving some of the junk in the basement. Job was done quickly and the areas left clean."

"This project went extremely well. I had used Fred Martus last year to replace my 18 year old water heater in Roswell, Ga. When I moved to a townhouse in Decatur In October, 2018, I needed to replace a 17 year old water heater. I contacted Mr Plumber and inquired if Fred Martus was available to do this project even though I was very close in town. He once again performed the job without a hitch. I recommend Fred and Mr Plumber again ."

"They were very polite, showed up when expected, and were willing to negotiate the price so that we could afford to do the job. They worked very hard and did a good job. I did watch that the drainage pipe was put in deep enough so aerator prongs won’t damage it."

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Mcdonough, GA

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.
