"Hats off to Daniel W. from Western Rooter who installed a water filtering system in my garage. Right from speaking with him on the phone, he was courteous, friendly, and very knowledgeable in his craft. You would think that companies would offer you their premium package right from the beginning but not Daniel. Instead, he asked what I was looking for and took the time and effort to send me multiple filtering systems (including Amazon choices) to choose from. This gesture tells you that he is looking for the customer's best interest at hand which is outstanding. Once I selected my choice, he thoroughly explained the contract and servicing process as well as answered all the questions I had. No big complicated words or complex contracts to decipher but simple and easy was the way Daniel pitched it. All in all, Western Rooter needs to hire more professional, knowledgeable, and charismatic people like him as he is a prime example of excellent customer service. I plan to use his services in the future and will definitely refer him to neighbors, friends, and family. Thank again Daniel W."

"Geremi was very responsive and quick to fix issues. I moved into a house with numerous plumbing issues. Geremi was very quick to diagnose issues and put in place solutions and recognize my need to have issues fixed quickly and was able to prioritize resources to achieve my needs. I would highly recommend Geremi for all plumbing issues. He installed a waterline for my fridge, fixed hot/cold line issues, fixed shower cartridge issues and installed a water pressure regulator and external natural gas line. All were done exceptionally well."

"Jeff was responsive and his crew member showed up the date of the appointment and performed the bath room exhaust fan installation in a timely manner. All in all, we liked their service as it was professional and clean. We would�have e appreciated if they came a bit prepared for the installation or notified us in advance of additional accessories required for the full job. Being first time home owners, we tend to require a bit of preparatory guidance. Now we know what all we have to do for round 2, when that comes up..."

"Ricky from Elite Sewer Solutions was fantastic! He came quickly to give me an estimate to install a 'Moen Flo' water shutoff and a 'Little Firefighter' gas shutoff. His estimate was far better than others I'd gotten! He was able to install both the following day. Plus I didn't need an electrician; Ricky ran an extra long cable (a separate product) under the house to an exterior wall outlet. Neat and tidy work. I'm happy and I'd hire him again."

Sump Pump Installation FAQs, answered by experts

A sewage ejector pump is necessary if you have any plumbing fixtures, such as a bathroom, laundry room, or sink, located below the level of your home's main sewer line. Standard plumbing relies on gravity to move wastewater and solid waste to the municipal sewer or septic tank. However, for fixtures located below grade (e.g., in a basement), gravity is not sufficient.

The purpose of a sewage ejector pump is to actively pump this wastewater and solid waste upward into the main sewer line. Without an ejector pump in this situation, wastewater would have no way to exit and would eventually back up, causing a sewage overflow or flooding in your basement. If all of your home's plumbing is on the main floor or higher, gravity can handle the drainage, and an ejector pump is not needed.

To test for toilet leaks, use water coloring in the water tank and see if the water slips into the bowl from the tank. This test will indicate if there’s a problem with the flapper or refill tube. You can also put water coloring in the bowl of the toilet to see if there is a leak there. If there is, you should see the colored water on the outside of the toilet bowl or on the floor. 

Thankfully, you do have a few sump pump backup options in case it fails. One option is a battery-powered backup sump pump. Another option is using a portable backup generator as a power supply for your sump pump. Unlike a battery-powered backup which has limited power, a generator can run around the clock for as long as you need it. 

Or you can opt for a water-powered backup pump, which uses your home’s water supply as a source of power. However, this may not be the best option if you find your house frequently has low water pressure.

Yes, a well-maintained sump pump can increase a home's value and make it more desirable to potential buyers; it does not lower property value. By protecting the basement from flooding and water damage, a sump pump provides peace of mind and can make the space usable for storage or as an extra room. For buyers interested in homes with basements, a working sump pump is a significant feature that adds value by ensuring the space is secure and less likely to flood.

DIY is possible for simple repairs. Professional services ensure proper diagnostics and long-term reliability.
