"Marco and Joe were AMAZING to work with. We thought we just needed our kitchen sink snaked-turned out the drain had collapsed/ broke under the foundation of our home. Joe helped walk us through the process and prices and Marco was the main man doing the job. They finished the entire project in one day and cleaned up the mess so well. Very trust worthy people and they will be our go to plumbers moving forward!"
"We recently had a team work on our home to fix a variety of foundation problems. In short, good communication and friendly customer service. Our sales rep Michael Freddolino was great. He was quick to respond to my first call and followed up without pestering when my husband and I dropped the ball and explained everything in a way we could understand it. Austin, Johnathan, Chris and Isaiah were the crew who worked at the house and were the nicest and most respectful group of workers. They were careful with our home, inside and out and cleaned up any mess that was made. They communicated very well with us to let us know how the progress was going and other items they ran into so they could be resolved right away. And if you can believe it, we ended up spending less than was originally estimated! I would definitely recommend them."
"Mike Williams is a wonderful installer, highly recommend him to anyone. When working with Bordner ask for Mike to be your installer you wonâ t regret it!"
"Had them replace a drain pipe in my foundation. They were timely and efficient. Price was very good as I have been through this nightmare before. Really appreciated Keith and Nico! When Keith arrived, I instantly knew I had the right guy advising me on this. Nico did a great job doing the job. Thank you both."
"These guys came very unpreparedly... they did not bring their own ladders or flashlights. I had to provide them for them. They also cut 3 different holes in my ceiling before deciding to go through the foundation, they then charged me extra for them having to cut so much.... but it did not reflect on the receipt...when they were done they did a horrible job patching and left the plaster a massive mess. Would only recommend if you are selling per the buyer request to put in and you do not care how it looks."
"We had blockage in one of our main drain pipes, causing water to back up in the kitchen sink, bathroom sink, and washing machine drain. Jason was able to get to our house within an hour and had it fixed in less than an hour. Overall a very easy process and easy to work with."
"Mr. Howell was punctual on the first visit to give an estimate for the job. He explained the charges clearly. An appointment was made for installation with the lady at the office for a much later date as the replacement faucet was not yet available. This appointment was rescheduled for an earlier time when the faucet arrived sooner than expected but Mr Howell did not show up for that appointment. Some internal miscommunication. Another appointment was made for the following week. He showed up on time for this one and installed the faucet in good time. The faucet being replaced had failed almost completely by then. The office staff is fantastic and very helpful. It was she that got my business since Mr Howell’s charges seemed a little high. The advice and assistance she gave me was worth the higher charges. However, I am not an expert on such things. The charges were explained up front. No fee was charged for the visit to give an estimate along with advice/confirmation of the type of faucet I would need."
"They cut our concrete slab for a basement bathroom installation (had to move a drain). They came early and worked quickly and efficiently, at a good price and did an excellent job. Nice guys too! I would use them again!"
Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts
There are a couple of similar alternatives you may consider for a sewage ejector pump, including a grinder pump or a submersible sump pump. Submersible sump pumps protect your home from flooding from outside water, though, rather than handling wastewater from inside. A grinder pump macerates, or shreds, solid waste before pumping it onward to the sewer line.
Since basements are prone to water and moisture issues and the resulting problems can be expensive to repair and potentially damaging to your home, basement waterproofing is almost always worthwhile. Even for homes that haven’t experienced water infiltration, waterproofing the basement is insurance against facing expensive repair bills in the future. All basements will leak at some point, so fixing drainage issues and taking steps to prevent moisture and water infiltration is wise.
The cost to install a new sump pump, including materials and professional labor, typically ranges from $1,000 to $3,000. The average cost is often cited between $1,200 and $2,500. Several factors influence the final price, including the type of pump, the complexity of the drainage system, and the installation location. For instance, installing a sump pump in a basement may cost around $1,200, while a more complex installation in a crawl space can cost an average of $3,900. It is important to hire a licensed professional for the installation to ensure quality work, which can impact the pump's lifespan and warranty. Note that these costs are for a new installation; replacing an existing unit is less expensive, typically costing $308 to $748.
Yes, you can install a sump pump yourself. By following the steps above, you can have a sump pump installed in 24 hours. You will have to use some advanced tools and techniques, so if you feel uneasy about taking it on yourself, it’s best to hire a professional.
A sump pump will drain a flooded basement if it has a horsepower strong enough to remove the water faster than it is entering the room. If you have the wrong type or size of sump pump installed–or if your sump pump has failed–you may need to take additional steps to stop the flow of water or remove it manually.
