"Renew Basement Foundation installed an egress window in my basement. The work they did was excellent and my egress window is beautiful. I would definitely hire them again for any basement related project. They handled the entire project from end-to-end, permitting, install, and cleanup. They also made recommendations for options that I had not considered that resulted in a significantly better looking final result versus what I had originally chosen."

"We worked with Paul Vaccaro and he spent a lot of time with us determining the cause of our wet basement walls and the best possible solution. The one side of our home had to be excavated and support beams were installed in the basement. Work was done in 2 days and they were very careful with their equipment so as not to damage our lawns. Very polite crew who showed up on time each day! Highly recommend!"

"I had Jensen PLumbing out my sump pump in from the City of Racine SUmp Pump program. The guys did an amazing job and they were very friendly and very clean. I was able to get my Sump Pump in in a timely manner. Also had Jensen Plumbing remodel my house that i bought. They gutted my house and repainted and installed new flooring through out my house and repiped waterline and drain. I went from a tub/shower to a shower and it looks amazing. All in all a great company to hire."

"We are very satisfied with their work. Workers were very professional and the hardest working group I have ever seen. They installed an under the floor drainage system along a 60 foot basement wall. We have had no water on our basement floor since it was installed 2 months ago. We have had multiple downpours since then. We had water on our basement floor every time it rained before their installation. We highly recommend them."

"After our basement flooded twenty years ago, we hired Everdry to replace our drain tile and install a second sump pump and crock. The work was performed in a timely manner and professionally. The workers cleaned up at the end of each day. We have never had any water issues since. Throughout the years, there have been minor sump pump issues and the company is always extremely responsive and usually comes out on the day I call. Given that we have springs underneath our home, the amount of water being pumped out can be excessive during the Spring. Everydry recommended and installed a second discharge line with a second sump pump in the crock to accommodate this large amount of water. I appreciate their knowledge and their fast response time!"

"We removed the wood paneling in the basement shortly after moving in.  That's when we noticed 13 cracks in the foundation.  None of them structural issues.  They came in and repaired all of them in one day.  A couple of them were difficult to get to due to stairs and piping, but they did a great job on all of them.

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Milwaukee, WI

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.
