"Jay immediately answered my inquiry and provided same-day service. He thoroughly explained what he was going to do and got the job done fast. His pricing was much better and service was faster than going through the big brand companies. I am incredibly satisfied and will be keeping Jay's card around for future plumbing repair needs."

"The company showed up when they said they would and completed the job within the time frame that they stated. Communication was a little rough with the field, but communication with the office was very responsive. Considering the extent of the work and the constraints within which they had to work, there was remarkably little collateral damage done. Unfortunately I was not able to witness the work before it was covered up and so I cannot comment on the quality of the installation, but can say that the company did a good job protecting the surrounding landscaped areas and seemed contentious and thoughtful in their approach to the work. I would definitely work with them again."

"Got 3 quotes, 1st Action was considerably less. I called to verify that the quote was correct, no add on, or hidden fees. The quote was correct. Installers took time to explain everything about the furnace on installation, operation, and concerns that I had. Installers cleaned up after the installation and removed the old furnace. They did a great job. The estimator was also the installer."

"Rooter Guys installed a sump pump in my basement after we began experiencing flooding. They rearranged their schedule in order to fit us in sooner given the urgency of the project. They were professional, hardworking and kept us informed throughout the process."

"As I remember, I was told there was more work done to get the garbage disposal installed. Did quite a lot of extra work that I'd forgotten. Guy that came out to do the work, from my memory, the installation was good. Though it was a little pricey, but in hindsight, it was probably a good deal."

Sump Pump Installation questions, answered by experts

Several indicators suggest it's time for a sump pump replacement. A key factor is age; if the pump is over 10 years old, its lifespan is likely ending. Performance issues are also clear signs, such as the pump running constantly, cycling on and off frequently, making unusual noises or vibrations, or failing to function at all. A faulty or burnt-out motor is another definite sign a replacement is needed. Additionally, if you notice any signs of incorrect installation, the pump should be replaced. For a definitive diagnosis, a vetted plumber can assess the pump and confirm whether a replacement is necessary.

One common reason a sump pump stops working is improper sizing. Different locations need different sizes and power ratings of sump pumps depending on the typical amount of water the pump needs to manage. If your sump pump is too small for the quantity of water, it can overwork and either burn out or reduce the life of the unit. If the pump is too big, it can overwork and burn out early. 

Sump pump repairs are typically handled by plumbers or waterproofing specialists who are experienced in handling basement and foundation-related issues. Plumbers can address issues like clogs, electrical problems, and mechanical failures, and waterproofing professionals may be ideal if the sump pump is part of a larger drainage or waterproofing system. 

Some people may also call on a general handyperson for minor sump pump repairs. However, for complex problems, hiring a certified plumber or waterproofing expert ensures the work is done correctly and prevents further issues.

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.

In most cases, standard homeowners insurance policies do not cover damage from a sump pump failure or overflow. Coverage for water damage is often limited to sudden, unexpected events like a burst pipe that was not caused by negligence. To be covered for sump pump issues, you will likely need to purchase a specific rider, endorsement, or additional water backup insurance. If your insurer offers this type of coverage, they may require proof that your sump pump is regularly maintained.
