"Eric was right on point and identified the solution and scope of work very promptly. He is a very good communicator via text and in person. I thought his pricing was very fair. He worked to install gutter on my roof, drainage piping, and a trench drain on the side of my driveway to mitigate erosion. He rototilled, fertilized, and installed sod on my formerly eroded front lawn. The work came out fantastic and my neighbors keep complementing me on how nice my house looks now."

"Took waaaay to long. 6 months, albeit, we started in late November but it was the nicest winter in history. Promise was late February for completion. I finally conceded in June that they had finally met all contractual obligations. There were several reasons it took so long from my point of view: not showing up when they say they are, poor workmanship requiring lots of rework (all caught by me, not the so called Project Manager), no dedicated project manager, unclear instructions/requirements flowed down to the contractors sent to do the work, company too focused on the next jobs instead of completing this one, etc..I could go on and on...Damaged my driveway and blamed the driveway even though I asked upfront if there would be any harm to it. "No we do this all the time" was the response. Damaged my neighbors lawn and I'm still fixing that. Overall, a bad experience. I'd rate them a "D" but they did eventually fix most of the quality problems. The rest I have, or will take care of. Cutting the ties with this contractor. Would not recommend."

Customers say: Quick response

"Amazing work from start off consulting through the end of the project. Very well rounded crew and amazing customer service. They kept me informed of the project every step of the way including when they were finding some damaged pipes under ground that we were not aware of. It reminded me of the type of contractors from home where I grew up in the South that were not out for the money but instead were in the business because they like the work and they love helping people accomplish their dream landscapes."

"Once again Derry Plumbing has met all my expectations for quality work and complete professional service. Mike and Christian just removed a tub unit and replaced with a walk-in shower unit. They were courteous, answered all my questions and kept everything spotlessly clean every day, I've used them for years and will continue to do so and will recommend them to friends!"

"I was impressed with NE Dry Basements from the beginning.  The head of the company (Don) came out himself to survey the situation and spent ample time with me explaining what he thought the issue was and how we could remedy it.  He answered all my questions and promptly sent me a detailed quote with a competitive price.  He did not try to oversell me and did not pressure me.  After interviewing several other vendors I went with NE Dry Basements.  They worked around my schedule, showing up on time with a very professional crew.  Although the job was messy, they cleaned up, leaving no mess.  We worked around a few tricky/complicated things but through it all, Don was adamant that he would honor his work and would come back as many times as necessary to ensure it was functioning properly (which it is).  I would highly recommend this company.

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in New Boston, NH

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.
