"I needed a sump pump to be replaced in my basement. I don t know any plumbers. I went on home advisor and found three in my area. Ken of Price-less called me within minutes of my request ( 5:17 pm). We set an appointment for the next day at 8:00am. He came exactly at 8:00 am replaced the pump in a little over an hour and charged my less than he had quoted. So from problem to fixed in under 18 hours: I d call that service, efficiency and value, all to rare these days. Nothing but my highest recommendation for both Home advisors and Ken from Price-Less Plumbing and Drain."

"We bought our own water heated and had Mr. Boesche install it. Not only did he outbid the other quotes we got, he was the ultimate professional from first contact to answering our calls and texts after the installation when we forgot to ask questions while he was here. He handled ever aspect of the installation including disposing of all the packaging and the old water heater. Not only will we be calling him for all future plumbing needs, we will be calling him for referrals for any home repairs. If Mr. Boesche trusts them, I know I can trust them. The only flaw was that he didn't ask me to write a review and should have. I had to offer. Found him on Angi's and so glad that I did. Getting the heater ourselves and having installing it we saved $1000 versus the companies who would only quote us with a water heater included. We made appointment at noon, and he showed up at 6 PM as promised. Thank you, Mr. Boesch for the excellent service. It was truly a pleasure doing business with you."

"Chad from Cosmic Plumbing did a great job communicating throughout the process. He came in and diagnosed the situation, explained it to me, and suggested how he was planning to resolve the issue. He then did the work and in less than 30 minutes he was done. The price seem fair and I would definitely hire him again."

"We are new homeowners and had a hole in our septic tank made of concrete block, which was sending wastewater into the foundation/basement of the home. It was my first time using Angie's List, and I would recommend Illinois Sewer and Drain to anyone. Joe and his team of experts solved our issue immediately at an affordable price. They even went above and beyond to install a sump pump in our basement to help with the rain water. Quality work!!"

Sump Pump Installation questions, answered by experts

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. 

The difference between an ejector pump and a sump pump lies in their purpose and design—an ejector pump functions to remove liquid gray water and soft solid sewage waste from your home. If you have a laundry room or bathroom in your basement, an ejector pump for your sewage tank prevents sewage from backing up in your washing machine or bathroom’s drains.

A sump pump is designed to remove excess groundwater that may enter your home, either due to flooding or periods of heavy rain.

Yes, many modern water pumps are designed with energy efficiency in mind. Look for pumps with high efficiency ratings or those with an Energy Star certification. These pumps consume less power and can reduce your utility bills. Additionally, variable-speed pumps are more efficient since they can adjust the flow based on demand, providing significant savings over time.

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.

Thankfully, you do have a few sump pump backup options in case it fails. One option is a battery-powered backup sump pump. Another option is using a portable backup generator as a power supply for your sump pump. Unlike a battery-powered backup which has limited power, a generator can run around the clock for as long as you need it. 

Or you can opt for a water-powered backup pump, which uses your home’s water supply as a source of power. However, this may not be the best option if you find your house frequently has low water pressure.
