"James the technician came out exactly on time. Our water heater was acting up and he confirmed it was 18 years old and we figured we be replacing it. We had some questions after the fact and owner was responsive and helpful. Specifically we wanted an 80 gallon one and we went down to a 50 gallon because the newest 80 gallon ones come with a heat pump and have proven to be expensive and problematic, with manufacturer not honoring warranty or a shortage of pros who are not equipped to deal with issues that arise. Owner suggested adding a mixing valve which increases capacity and so far our needs have been met. We are considering installing a 2nd unit bit opted to wait to see if it's even necessary. Price was reasonable and no issues so far."

"The moisture entering our home through foundation walls and permeating the interior environment was a concern for the health of our home and our family. The French drain, sump pump and EZ Breathe Ventilation system recommended and installed by Worthington made an immediate and significant improvement to the air quality in our home and the long-term stabilization of our structure. The team was highly professional in consultation and performance. We couldn't be more satisfied or relieved!"

Sump Pump Installation questions, answered by experts

3/4 HP is stronger than 1/2 HP. Horsepower measures how much weight can be moved and how fast, or the power needed to move 550 pounds one foot in one second. 1 HP equals 550 foot-pounds per second, so the higher the horsepower, the heavier the load it can lift. While 1/2 HP is a standard, powerful option, 3/4 HP has the extra strength to handle heavier, larger doors with ease.

If you notice any new sump pump noises, such as persistent clanging or gurgling, then you likely have a sump pump problem on your hands. Foul odors coming from the pump can also indicate problems. Additionally, if your unit turns on but doesn't pump water, you might have to address electrical problems. In any of these cases, it's a good idea to hire a professional to address the issue.

Yes, you can add a battery to your existing sump pump. There are batteries available that can be plugged into your existing system; however, most battery backups come as a complete system and act as a replacement for your existing sump pump.

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.

To test for toilet leaks, use water coloring in the water tank and see if the water slips into the bowl from the tank. This test will indicate if there’s a problem with the flapper or refill tube. You can also put water coloring in the bowl of the toilet to see if there is a leak there. If there is, you should see the colored water on the outside of the toilet bowl or on the floor.
