"They did it right & quickly. However, the price quoted to me was no where near the final price. They said they installed a secondary pump which added $1450 more! I don't see how a 2nd pump cost more than the primary one. Don't like getting bids over the phone without seeing what needs to be done."

From the first phone call to the annual maintenance offered, our customers have peace of mind knowing we’re there with one mission – to repair, protect and improve their home.

"JES Foundation Repair (A Groundworks Company) proposed a solution for my basement wall reinforcement, and waterproofing. I accepted, and a date was set. They did not show up and it took 8 phone calls and 24 hours to find out that they weren't confident in their proposal. They increased the scope and added 50% to the cost. Stupidly, I signed again as time was wasting and I didn't want to start over with new vendors. JES completed the work while I was out of town. When I got back, there had been heavy rain and there was more water in my basement then I had ever experienced. I contacted my rep via text (impossible to get through by phone as he always was in "Training" when I called). His response was " That doesn't look good, I'll make some calls". I had to make the calls. JES sent several new employees out and they proposed additional work at ADDITIONAL cost. Unable to get satisfaction from mgmt. Had another foundation company finish the job. Do not use!"

Welcome to Hustle Construction where we pride ourselves on our customer service and professional work. In business since 1985 with years of experience. We Do not offer dumpster services, just discarding of items. We have a MINIMUM of $250 for all services. Give us a call today and we will be happy to give you a free estimate!

"I hired Hustle Construction to help clean up my mom and dad’s property that had years of rocks, bricks, railroad ties, cinderblocks, and other debris piled up. I put an RFP on Angi, and Chris from Hustle responded quickly with a really fair bid. He kept in touch, showed up when he said he would, and brought his crew who worked super hard. They knocked the job out of the park! Honestly, I think the cleanup was a bit bigger than they expected, but Chris stuck to his price, which I really appreciated. I even gave them a little extra tip because they worked like a bunch of oxen. All in all, I’m very happy with how everything turned out. I’d gladly hire Hustle Construction again and definitely recommend them to anyone who needs honest, hardworking folks to get the job done right."

Our commitment is 100% guaranteed customer satisfaction on every project. Call us today, so that we can give you a free estimate and make your project come to life!

"Josh, the representative from Basement Gurus was outstanding! We had experienced a water issue in our finished basement. Josh thoroughly examined the interior and exterior of the home and determined that the leak might be plumbing related. Josh could have very easily exploited our ignorance and suggested a solution purely beneficial to his company that may not have addressed the underlying cause of the problem. Instead, he demonstrated his integrity by realistically assessing the situation even if it would jeopardize the sale. This is commendable particularly in this era where cutthroat business practices are commonplace. I highly recommend Basement Gurus. They are fortunate to have an employee like Josh who exhibits concern for the customer at such a high level. "

"Dry Tech Waterproofing Solutions Not a stand up company. So much promise. The people were friendly, they got it done fast. At the time of write up, i told them the basement gets feet of water per day. I need a GOD level solution. Two sump wells were put in with a battery backup. The pumps ultimately failed due to a breaker tripping because they put two 10 amp pumps on a single circuit. The basement flooded since no one is actively living there to hear the backup pump kick on. This in turn fried the battery backup and the electrical components that were installed knee high. I try to leverage their warranty, and they wanted 300 dollars to replace a marine grade battery that got destroyed because the basement flooded and the backup wasn't waterproof. It isn't even water resistant. Its a plastic box that doesn't seal. Absolute garbage materials. The story changed from its the cost of the battery, to its the cost of the labor to fix what their warranty should have covered: A sub par in"

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Middletown, DE

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.
