"The team that was sent smelled of weed, first thing I noticed. The work was done quickly, so that was good, but they didn't get an in process inspection and instead sent over an inspector more than a month after the work was done. The dirt that was displaced is just all over my yard now, and I have a bunch of big holes where they didn't pack any dirt. The company offered to fill them but I never heard back after that offer. As part of the work, they dug around the chimney, and it appears they caused it to break. They claim no damage was done, but I'm finding many pieces of concrete and brick strewn over my yard."

"I had a basement waterproofing project done by TC Hafford in March costing over 19K. It is now July and my basement is full of water, once again,on this rainy day. I have been back and forth with this company for months, and after sending someone in who finally admitted to faulty installation, I am still waiting for them to fix their mistakes. I absolutely would never recommend this company to anyone."

"Furnace started blowing cold air in January 2026. Waltz came out and said, since it happened to be blowing warm air on the day they were there, there was nothing wrong with the furnace. When we called them again in February, they diagnosed an actual problem and said they would order the part to fix it. Today is March 5 AND THEY HAVE STILL NOT EVEN ORDERED THE PART!!! We have spent a almost the entire winter of 2026 - remember how cold it has been?- with NO FUNCTIONING FURNACE. There is no excuse for this negligence "

"We had Worth[less] install snow guards on our standing seam roof in Dec. of 2018 (13 months/1 season ago). A large section has just fallen off and appears to be pulling off other sections while also causing damage to our expensive standing seam roof and seamless gutters, both of which are new within the last 2 years. I assumed they would be very responsive and quick to remedy the problem but at first they said, "we can get someone there in the spring" followed by, "we don't really have anyone working right now" then, "there is snow and rain in the forecast, so maybe next week but probably later" and finally, "that shouldn't happen and never does, can you send some pictures and we can get back to you tomorrow?". Apart from our own safety concerns, our tenants, guests, mailmen/women, and pets would come into harm's way for a few more months if left to Worth[less]. For those considering Worth[less] for any work because the price seems appealing just remember this: good work isn't cheap and cheap work isn't good! Find someone who stands by their work or, at the very least, fixes things when they fail."

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Norway, ME

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.
