"They did a great job. They were able to use a small pump to pump the waste water out before replacing the broken pump. The other company wanted us to pay for a pump truck costing $600 before giving the estimate."

"Please get all the details in the contract about the materials. UPDATE 1/1/24: I am writing this review with my valuable time after I was thinking a lot. I found that Wladimir Simos the owner from WS builders did not do any big job and had no work experience before like mine and I let him to practice on my project as his learning school. Which was my mistake as well. There were so many issues during the construction and after the construction completed as well. I reviewed him with good rating before expecting he would fix all the issues on timely manner but I had to beg him ten times to fix his own issues and I want other people know this and not experience what i I experienced. His plumbing and Hvac work was worse in my house. They did not pass the rough inspection in three times and the final inspection was not passed in 4 times. They were making holes and cutting the joints in the places where was against the building code. My project got delayed 4 months just because of their silly mistakes. Lot of thing that I had on my original contract was not followed. He would not put the details on contract and use whatever materials he could use to save the cost. We had contract to use the medium/standard grade materials for everything and I did not know the details of materials since it was my first project. I found that he used laminated counter top instead of granite and laminated cabinets instead of solid wood and they already started chipping within 1 year from completion. He put very small and cheap vanity in my 4 full bathroom which is only 3 feet wider. Bath tub also in very low quality. I had to make him read the contact again to make him put shower glass and install pull stairs to roof that was in contract already. After the final inspection passed and we moved to new unit; the hvac system broke in both of my new addition. It took very long to fix it after more than 5 service. There was multiple water leaking in both both units from bathroom and other surfaces as well. He put the hvac in the roof instead of that supposed to be in mechanical room in the first floor. They did not put the drain pipe in the beginning and had to cut all the walls to fix it. Also, they did not put the vents for my laundry dryer and had to cut the wall again. Moreover, they had three broken window and multiple broken screen on my windows and some of them are not even replaced yet. Its one year only now and the owner from WS builder is very mad to hear the problems from his fixing. He texts me not to bother him anymore. I just had water leak from the HVAC unit and the water tray was broken and ceiling and lights got damaged. I used someone else to fix it and spent a lot. The main entrance door had air leak and it has not been fixed yet and i am losing the heat from cold air. The siding they installed had very poor and cheapest quality. It fell more than 4 times and still about to fall. Not only this; he took money to build two shades and was very low quality foundation it collapsed and I called other contractor to fix it. He also took extra money for retail wall and did not compact the soil good and the level went down afterwards and driveway got all cracked. The fence he installed should hace cement post and he did put cement and just dig holes and installed. Also he left my land to the neighbor and moved the fence toward my land. It is more lot to explain and I would not recommend this builder if you looking for quality work and perfection."

"High quality, professional work with very good value Joe’s ALO team just finished installing the gutters on the frontside of our house and they did such a high-quality work at a very reasonable price. We did get quotes from multiple gutter companies and some folks quoted us ridiculous prices (thousands of dollars) that seemed quite out of touch. ALO won our business due to their high-quality gutters with a screen cover and an anti-splash board – a quite smart design at a very reasonable price."

"Wes and his team saved us from a terrible situation! We recently had our bathroom completely redone by a contractor who we didn't really know, and the work wasn't done well. We called in Wes, having worked with him several years ago to tile our kitchen, and he came by to take a look. Thank goodness he did! After his initial assessment, he knew right away that our "new" shower was likely leaking, and that there were multiple issues with both the tile and the structure of the shower itself. Wes coached us through buying the materials that we would need, and drew up a contract to get going on the project as soon as possible. After demolition, the problems really became apparent! All kinds of leaks, CUT FLOOR JOISTS, and other incredibly sketchy shortcuts from the original contractor. Wes walked us through the best strategy to fix everything and his team worked diligently to correct all of the issues and tile the shower beautifully. We will be working with Wes again for many more projects, particularly fixing the floor in this bathroom, which was also a hack job. He has been professional and courteous in all of our dealings with him, he shows up on time when he says he will, answers all of our questions truthfully and in depth, and he cleaned up after himself at the end of every day and at the end of the job, which is always a huge bonus! Thanks to Wes and his team for their hard work to get us the shower of our dreams, and save us from a mess further down the line."

"I moved into a 2 year old house to immediately find water seeping into the basement. I found some signs of it around the baseboard moldings. I called a couple of companies, one of them Drycrete and another, an interior french drain company. The french drain company wanted to jack hammer my finished basement and install one of their systems, an additional sump pump, and a ton of exterior work for pump discharge. That was going to cost 15-20k. Drycrete on the other hand, walked around the perimeter and noticed the obvious - foundation cracks. Those are cheap to fix, but not a guarantee. In any case, I decided to start from the top down, cracks first, 20k french drain later. The process for a crack seal is pretty straight forward and if I wasn't as pannicked I would have attempted it myself. They used Poly to inject into the crack and it worked. The basemet is dry. My sheetrock is open and the wall is still bare from the spray foam along the crack lines. I constantly measure the moisture content in the baseplates and it's slowly getting back to normal. But the moral of the story is - whatever company you bring on to a job site, whatever sperialty it is that they do, that's the solution they will likely propose to you. Drycrete did a good job as far as getting the right diagnosis. If I had to change anything about my experience with Drycrete, maybe I woould have requested for them to put up Zipwalls around the work area. Drywall and concrete dust went everywhere. Overall, good work y'all."

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Northborough, MA

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.
