Nothing beats knowledge and preparation.

Home drainage is a common deal killer when it comes to home purchases. Many times per year I receive calls from homeowners in a panic due to the fact that they… either have not dealt with the home drainage issues that affect their home, or they did not know about them.

Homeowners want to know what action should be taken, with respect to home groundwater problems, and their impact on earnest money agreements to purchase real estate, that are made subject to solving home drainage problems, in order to satisfy the conditions of the lender, with respect to the new financing. This all becomes a jump ball situation depending on how strong the repairs clause in the earnest money is, with respect to protecting the interests of the eventually damaged party to the transaction.

Surprising is the fact that few contractors actually understand and specialize in hand excavated french drains. Most contractors that advertise as professional home drainage contractors are sump pump installers.

I contend that most of these described, “would be” home drainage contractors, really do not have a clue and are licensed scammers.

Much precious time and money is lost and squandered in the attempt to solve home drainage problems. Contractors are all talking a different language too. Time to study up and take them on.
