"Sebastian was very professional. He quickly found the blockage and cleared/cleaned the drain. The price to do so was fair, I didn't feel overcharged or upcharged. I will definitely use JAX-Hydro Jetters for any drain issues."

"I had them give me and estimate for abandoning a septic tank and doing plumbing to hook up to the city water. He had the first availability to come out. He said he was going to be there during the day and it ended up being the end of the day. I mean it didn't matter, we told him we would be here all day. It's just they said like afternoon, but ended up being evening. He was very challante about the whole thing. He said he would email the estimate, but we haven't gotten anything yet and it's been a while. The only way we would end up using him, would be if someone couldn't do it better than him and for some reason his price was lower than theirs'."

"We had toilets both stopped up on a Sunday. We called Service Plumbing and the technician came same day! I was very happy. I have a 6 person family household. The technician called and let us know that he was on his way. He was punctu. He came out and assessed our clog, found the problem, and unclogged our drains from the outside. Not only did he do that VERY QUICKLY, he checked our septic tank and SHOWED us where the whole problem was. He could've unclogged the drains, collected, and left. But he knew that we needed more than just to bust a clog.. Not on the technician, but management was professional as well. I strongly recommend. This is an honest company with great prices. Call around and find out for yourself. But don't say I didn't tell you so."

"Had flooding for many years around 5 residential condominium buildings on Anastasia Island. They did a combination of excavation in areas to create swales and installed a series of 24" and 15" drainage pipes with check valves to prevent backflow. There is no longer any flooding on the property. It's also worth noting they met with the Army Corps of Engineers, the County Engineer, and St. Johns Water Management District and got approval from all of them for the work. The new drainage system also stopped the flooding of the street and neighboring properties. Very pleased with the work they did."

"Our frame house is located right on the river and has a basement. Its size is approximately 1,500 square feet with about 1/3 on soil and 2/3 on concrete slab. The basement was quite damp and during strong rains could take on about 2 inch of water. The old sump pump could minimize the damage, but the accumulative damage was pretty strong. Especially in a frame house the structure is very susceptible to water and the damage and odor travels throughout the house. <br /> When we bought the property last fall we decided right away that this has has to be fixed right away. <br /> After researching a couple of companies we decided to go with IEM. They were courteous on the phone and were ready to dispatch a specialist the next day for a free estimate. <br /> PJ arrived at our house and did a thorough inspection. Since nothing had been done in the 100 years before (except for the old sump pump) and our location right on the river he recommended to encapsulate the basement and install further water barriers around the property. So in detail they performed the following: <br /> Basement Encapsulation: <br /> ---------------------------------- <br /> - remove old insulation, regrade the dirt, clean and disinfect the subflooring system <br /> - dig a trench around the perimeter of the basement <br /> - install a pipping system and and backfill the drainage system <br /> - remove all 15 windows units and replace it with newer windows <br /> - install drainage matting throughout the basement ground cover <br /> - remove old sump pump and install a sump pump with 2 failover systems <br /> - ensure all trench systems feed into the sump pump for max efficiency <br /> - install a 20 millimeter thick polythene membrane on the ground <br /> - install the polythene membrane on the wall to a height of 4 feet <br /> - install an industrial sized dehumidifier to eradicate any further excess moisture <br /> Foundation Wall Repair: <br /> -------------------------------------- <br /> - remove plants, pavers and anything else which might interfere with work progress <br /> - excavate soil around foundation wall completely around the building to about 2 feet <br /> - clean and prep foundation wall surface <br /> - repair mortar joints and concrete block surfaces <br /> - apply a coating of surface bonding cement to all foundation wall surfaces <br /> - apply commercial waterproofing compound on all of the surface areas of the foundation wall and footer <br /> - install a french drain system and a discharge line around parts of the perimeter <br />   <br /> The contract price was set fixed at around $45k and IEM estimated a 2-3 week time frame. During the project Clay and his amazing team encountered tons of unanticipated issues. The strong roots from the trees around the building had disintegrated the walls much more than was visible at first. Many bricks where simply hollowed out and Clay and his team were rebuilding a good part of the wall foundation completely from scratch. Since we're located in a historic district IEM could not simply install new windows, but were painstakingly remodeling each of the 15 windows by hand (sanding down, paint in previous color, sand clean each glass plate, fix all joints) and now those historic windows look like new. IEM also took care of getting the permits from the historic society to make the necessary changes. <br /> Clay and his team worked highly professional and efficient. Nevertheless it took more than double the anticipated time to finish the project. All the trouble with the windows was neither in the contract nor was it anticipated. Nevertheless IEM did not charge us a dime extra. <br /> I can highly recommend IEM. They were very professional, tremendously courteous, and surprisingly inexpensive regarding all the work that had to be done. Moreover, there were so many aspects to consider and it was great to have the same points of contact for all those issues (Clay and PJ). Both were very responsive to any concern and addressed them all. Moreover, even the company owner and basement guru John come out several times to make sure everything went smoothly. We feel very happy that we chose IEM. Our once damp basement which was ruining our frame structure is now a dry basement and solid for the next 50 years! The odor is completely gone and the whole house should get less hot in summer and less cold in winter. <br />"

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Pomona Park, FL

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.
