Merrifield Garden Center

Yes, surprise--Merrifield Garden Center solves wet basement or other drainage problems. But Merrifield solves the problems the CORRECT way: determining where the water is coming from, how it gets into the house, and then expertly designs an EXTERIOR drainage solution instead of the far less effective and destructive interior sump pumps. After interviewing & checking refs for over 12 "waterproofing" and drainage companies, I chose Merrifield Garden Ctr to find a solution for my house problem. They did an exceptional job of investigating the source of the problems, and designing and installing a drainage system that solved ALL of my problems on the OUTSIDE of the house so we didn't need a sump pump INSIDE the house. David Watkins, Gen Mgr, is an expert at this & he does the cost estimates. Their costs are very competitive--they weren't the most expensive & weren't least expensive, but they have superior expertise and do a superb job. After having them do multiple projects for us over several yrs, we can honestly say that David Watkins is one of those rare individuals whose word is his bond--he's honest and trustworthy. On the rare occasion when the crew makes a mistake, David promptly sees that it's corrected. He stands 100% behind their work, and he's very easy to work with. In our book, they set the high standard for top quality contractor work. We just wish they also did home renovation so we could hire them and be confident we were going to get top quality work at a reasonable price. Contact me if you have any questions. And by the way, we do NOT have a financial interest in them--we are not employed by them; we are not related to them; we are not paid for saying this. We are enthused simply because in our 30 yrs experience as homeowners, contractors of this outstanding quality are rare indeed.
