Looking for a good plumber

anonymous

I need to have a drain installed in my backyard so my basement will quit flooding. The plumber who was going to do the work for me was a no-show. Anyone know a plumber that will break up small area of concrete install drain, connect to waste line and patch concrete for a reasonable fee?
Thanks for any info.

I use Vigilante. They are not the cheapest but I am always pleased with their work (and I have sadly worked with them quite a bit in my brownstone).

Have you had a professional assessment which calls for a drain?
Could it be that area of concrete is graded towards the house, not away or has a belly to start a pool.

We have had a professional assesment, it is not the grading...

Try Stanley Lewis. They're less expensive than Vigilante and based in Crown Heights, not Park Slope. I remember years ago you couldn't get Vigilante to cross Flatbush. I guess the color of money talked to them. SL's number is 718-774-8757.
