"Erinn was my initial contact and he gave a very through and fair estimate. We had structural work done to support floor joists and large beams under the garage that needed replacing. Ernesto and his team, Julio, Salvatore and Gilder worked tirelessly to complete the work and were respectful, punctual, informative and good humoured throughout the entire process. I would not hesitate to use them again or recommend them to others. A really great company!!"

"Samuel is the best. We had water bubbling in the ceiling (never a good sign), and he was able to help us find a contractor to remove and replace the smallest part of the ceiling needed to address the leak. He was honest, prompt and most importantly - did a great job. Thanks Sam!"

"I stared to look for a plumber after I found water under my water heater. I jumped on Angi and posted my issue. With in minutes....Art messaged me and said he can be her 1st thing in the morning. BTW. This was 10pm at night. His quick response was a plus for me. I had one other respond but he over extended himself to my need. He came at 7amd and said....you need a new water heater. I can got get one and install it now. I was a bit reluctant and he said call me when your ready and left. My wife said his prices looked fair and he seemed like a good plumber. I called him back and said lets dance. He was back at my home in a hour and 1/2...and started the work. He protected my carpet and placed plastic on it. He warned my that maybe the cost might go up due to the age of the pipes and valves. He had the old one out and the new one in an an hour or so. He was quick, clean and polite. I paid him and shuck his hand. I recommend Art for your household plumbing needs. He was excellent."

"Art Hovsepian is an absolute professional. He runs a tight ship, employs all of his own plumbers, drywall patchers and doesn't use any sub-contractors. They take their time and do it right the first time. The crew was punctual, cleaned up after themselves and finished the repipe in three days. The drywall patchers came the next day and took a couple of days to finish their work, and we were ready for the painters the next day. Everything was completed within a week and we were totally pleased with the results, the follow up and I cannot recommend this company highly enough. I did much research on repiping and on the various companies that provide this service and am glad I made the decision to go with Repipe Pro."

"My house is very old so we have been having lots of drain/pipes issues.  With 5 grown kids in the house you can imagine what happens when a bathroom is down.  Thank goodness I found The Drain Guys through YELP! My drains knows no time/day it wants to back up and normally it never happens during business hours.  This company not only came out after hours but came out within the hour and relieved me of my problems fast, quick and it was worth the $99.00 charge.  Ed was very professional (some techs are mad when they have to work OT), friendly, put my mind to ease and even looked at another problem (faucet) without hesitation or charging me to just give me an estimate for the faucet.  I had him come back the next day to fix my faucet and gave FREE inspection underneath my house. First class service with AFFORDABLE prices.  When the office called me to let me know they were with Angie's List I jumped at the change to enroll JUST TO PUT OUT THIS REVIEW!  Great Job Drain Guys!  You have a customer for life. [Member name removed]"

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Rancho Palos Verdes, CA

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.
