"Inspection of a previously installed sump pump system (primarily the sump pump). Inspection found that it seized up and wouldn't have functioned. Replacement made - and very fortunately - since when the pump is needed, it IS needed. It wouldn't have been good to have a flooded basement or have an upcoming flooded basement."

"It was so much easier than getting a dumpster. I paid less money than if I had gotten a dumpster because a dumpster charges by weight and since it snowed and rained, everything in the bag was wet - I would have paid a fortune!!! With the bullbag, I paid one set price and the cool part: I got the bag back to refill again and again. This company also recycles most of what is collected so less ends up in a landfill.
No better business bureau complaints.
One set price to empty.
I get to reuse the bag over and over."

"Our technician, Dameyan Jackson, called the night before the day of service to let me know the time that he would be here to service our system. On Friday, he called to let me know that he was available to come earlier than scheduled, if I would like. He arrived shortly after the phone call, came in and quickly recognized that the pump had failed. He was very knowledgeable and professional. I was very pleased with his service and look forward to him returning to install a new pump."

The project on a whole went relatively smoothly for the most part . However, when it came to sheetrock and spackle time, that is when we starting to see a change quality. There is a soffit above our shower which had to be completely rebuilt and the front corner was far from a corner. it was very inferior, very rough looking. I could have done a better corner. When I asked her to fix it the next day, her once pleasant attitude suddenly changed. So in the coming few days as Jess continued to spackle the rest of the bathroom, I continued to noticed many areas that were rough and should be sanded and re-spackled. When I came home one day to complete paint covering all the bumps, ripples, imperfections in the spackle I was quiet surprised and troubled. When we asked Jess about this she said we should have said something before she painted, now she has to sand re-spackle, re-prime and re-paint.

We did say something!

after a couple months of looking at the less than perfect spackle and paint job, we contacted Jess again to please come fix this for us. Basically she tried to tell us that it isn't her work that is inferior and it has 2 months so her job here is done. She did not come back to correct to correct the imperfections in the inferior spackling job and we have to live with the very unsightly walls or hire someone else to correct it.

The other complaints are when the base molding was installed, the finish nails were too long and it scratched across the entire bottom of our pocket door. Also, the threshold that was installed came loose and didn't cover the end of the tile.

All in all, the small things make a large difference, we had plenty of work for Jess, but we would NOT contract her again !!!

Sump Pump Installation questions, answered by experts

Installing a battery backup for your sump pump is recommended, particularly if you live in an area with frequent power outages or severe rainstorms. A sump pump requires electricity to function, and a battery backup ensures it can continue to move water out of your home if the power goes out, providing crucial protection against flooding. Additionally, frequent power outages can create electrical surges that might damage the sump pump's motor. A battery backup system offers an additional layer of protection, ensuring your basement stays dry.

A sump pump battery backup can typically run for 6 to 24 hours. The factors that affect its runtime include the battery capacity and pump usage. 

When purchasing your backup system, take these factors into consideration to determine which system is best for your home. If you live in an area with frequent and long-lasting power outages, consider a longer-lasting backup battery.

To maintain your sump pump, start by checking it every three to four months to ensure it’s in working order. Clear any debris from the pit because blockages can prevent the pump from operating efficiently. You should also test the pump by pouring a bucket of water into the pit. If it turns on automatically and drains the water, it’s functioning correctly. Inspect the discharge line for clogs, and ensure it directs water away from your home. Once a year, clean the pump itself, and consider having it professionally serviced for optimal performance.

Every three to four months, you should clean any dirt and debris off of your sump pump. You should also check the inlet screen (at the bottom of the pump) to make sure that it isn’t blocked. On top of that, you should deep clean your sump pump once per year—or hire a sump pump pro to do it for you.

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.
