"Mitigation system installation was very smooth. There was confusion with the initial crawlspace measurement for encapsulation but we resolved it. Overall great price and service."
"We had 1st Action Plumbing, Heating & Air Inc install a new furnace and A/C system in our home about three years ago, and we couldn’t be happier with it! The system has worked amazingly well and has been reliable ever since. We had a great experience with the installation and would definitely recommend 1st Action to anyone looking for quality HVAC work and a company they can trust!"
"Mike Williams from Bordner and trainee Vuk were phenomenal at installing a new shower for me. They did great work and Iâ d recommend them if you use Bordner for any home improvement."
"Had an emergency water pipe leak with water running into the basement where Groundworks had already installed a sump pump and drainage system. The pump clogged up with mud and wouldn’t work. Josh Moreno responded and worked so hard getting the system apart and cleaned out. Unfortunately he couldn’t finish until we got someone out to dig up the front yard and replace main water line. Josh was here first thing Monday morning and finished cleaning the system out, tested everything, and got everything working again. We are so thankful he responded to our home and took care of it. Thanks Josh!"
"Mitchell did an awesome job. Quality of work was first rate. He took the time to make sure my new Delta Touch faucet was installed correctly. And didn't charge me the extra time it took him to complete the job. Grindstaff Plumbing is a 5 star. Hard working and honest."
"Cassidy is very personable and prompt. He was able to perform my plumbing upgrade and dishwasher install the very next day. Dishwasher is working fine and the new water valve hasn't leaked a drop. Although he did charge more than was quoted for the work I would recommend him to others."
"Completed the workin a professional manner. The installation was not typical and required some creative construction. The finished product is worth the cost."
"Mario and George were pleasant and great to work with. They provided me with options and listened patiently to all of my questions. I had them come in for an estimate to replace two sump pumps and they were great and we were able to complete the job on the same day. I look forward to working with them as my go-to plumbers."
"He came and assessed the damaged. Then he said he needed parts, it being old it took a little while to find it. Then he put new part in cleaned the tub nicely. Plumber James was super polite and very competent. Would definitely hire again!!"

Sump Pump Installation questions, answered by experts
Costs depend on pump type, labor rates, and the extent of repairs or installation needs.
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.
First, you can try unplugging the two sump pump cords, one for the motor and one for the float switch, then plugging them back in to reset the sump pump. You can also reset the sump pump by turning it off and back on at the breaker. Many sump pumps have a reset button, which you can press and hold for a few seconds to reset the device.
If you’re wondering if your home even needs a sump pump, consider whether you’ve struggled with flooding issues in the past. If your house is in a flood-prone area, your yard has poor drainage, or you’ve dealt with any other water problems, then it’s likely well worth it to replace your old sump pump with a new one.
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.
