"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."

"I was told it would take three days to replace my water pipe from the house to the street. Precise completed the installation in one day. I will definitely use them in the future. I had been without water inside my house and I am thrilled to have it back."

"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 questions, 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.

A small sump pump running infrequently uses an average of 10 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per month. The average cost for electricity is $0.171 per kWh. The size and use frequency affect how much electricity it uses. Sump pumps average one-third to one horsepower (hp) motors. One hp is equal to 745.7 watts. Watts multiplied by the time your pump is running divided by 1,000 equals your average kWh. Multiply kWh by your average cost of electricity. In areas with high rain or a marsh basin, the average cost can be as high as $15-$25 a month.

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.

Sump pumps prevent basement flooding, reduce humidity, and protect against water damage.

The most common cause of a clogged sump pump is natural debris buildup. As water enters the sump pit, it can carry small pieces of debris that build up over time, or the debris can get caught in the filter. If you forget to cover the pit after cleaning the sump pump and pit, debris can also collect in the pit. Corrosion on the metal discharge pipe can also clog the pump. Additionally, if your pipes freeze, it can prevent water from draining properly and cause a clog.
