"I used to get water in my basement every time it rained. I had a sump pump installed and I still got water through the cracks. Seal pro Max was the perfect solution for me for fraction of the cost of other solutions. With all the snow and rain we’ve had this year I didn’t get a drop of water in my basement. The guys were very knowledgeable and professional and were able to finish the job in one day. I wish I knew about this years ago."

"Spoke with Andre late Thursday afternoon. He quoted a price (several hundred dollars lower than other quotes) and scheduled me for the next morning. The representative, Dobrica, arrived early for the appointment. He checked the location to confirm adequate space for the new unit which was larger than the old unit and recommended a new shut off valve (the old unit was from 1994). He was very professional and his installation was top notch. It required major re-plumbing which he accomplished quickly. What amazed me the most is that the job was completed at the quoted price plus the cost of the optional shut off valve. I honestly expected some sort of additional cost to be added because some unexpected problems would pop up. But, NO, the quote was honored, and no attempt was made to get me to buy any additional parts. Having lived in South Florida since 1981, I've come to expect some sort of up-charge. Great to find an honest business!"

"Terrific. Avoids having to dig trenches in entire house to replace pipes. Pipes are lined with new material effectively creating a pipe inside a pipe. No digging and no dust, less expensive and faster to install."

"This was my first experience in buying an Angie's list deal, and I was rather wary, particularly since I had to pay up front, before even talking with the company!  But all went very well.  I bought the deal on Sunday, and was contacted Monday to set up a time for installation, which was 9AM the next day.  At 9:05, "Eric" called to say that an emergency had come in, and he would be somewhat delayed.  I appreciated the notice.  He arrived around ten AM, and took measurements to determine what size hot water heater would fit the space I had for it.  He then went to get it, called me back saying that the 38 gallon was the largest that would fit (I had wanted a 40 gallon, but the 38 was fine.).  When he returned, he took out the old, leaking heater (and later took it away, so I had no disposal cost).  He found some water damage on the floor below, that may need more work at some later time.  The heater took about three hours to install, and once it was installed, I had hot water very quickly! 
Eric was superb: polite,thorough, highly professional and adept.  I highly recommend him, and the company.  The service could not have been better.
I had in the past used a different firm that has good (somewhat mixed) reviews on the list, but it has not been as satisfactory-- usually late, and usually charging an extra "travel fee" that varies greatly between jobs.  PlumbTech had no hidden costs, was expeditious and professional. 
I would certainly use this company again.

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in South-miami-heights, 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.
