Paul,
We had ours done in 2016 but it looks like they may have closed or been
bought out. Sorry for your troubles -- I know wet basements get really
tiring.
Good luck,
Doug

Hi Lynn and or Doug
Could you send contact info for mid-atlantic – I’m having trouble finding
them online

We also used Mid-Atlantic and added 2 French drains in our basement and
they updated our sump pump to a much heartier version. Additionally, we
built a French drain/landscape element in our backyard that we did mostly
ourselves, with the help of a local landscaper. We’ve had significantly
less issues with water — only 1 small incident of stormwater in our laundry
room after the most extreme rain in Sept.

We fought this battle for a long time before biting the bullet and getting
a French drain. Mid-Atlantic did our work and we were very satisfied with
both the work and results. We had an early leak but they came out quickly
and extended the French drain for free. We haven't had a leak since. I
thought the system was a bit of overkill but now I'm glad with all the
heavy rain.
Cheers,
Doug, formerly and in the future on Buffalo Ave.

We used Carlos Herrera at (703) 675-8051 for a basement project (he is
more of a general contractor) and he ended up guiding us towards a good bit
of water mitigation, both inside and outside. It cost us more than the
planned project, but in the end, we’ve not had a drop of water in 3 years.
French drains inside and also outside to divert rain water. Specia Plastic
sheeting along the walls to divert any leakage from cracks down into the
French drain. Double sump pumps for different levels of the basement, etc.

Hi Neighbors
My perennial question – any recommended contractors for wet
basements—either interior or exterior solutions including waterproofing,
sumps, French drains etc. We keep pouring money into this without much
success. Frustrating for a guy who got an A in water resources engineering
in grad school! Not Archer or Kathleen Litchfield. Anyone used JES for
waterproofing?
Thanks
Paul
