"Our backup sump pump alarm went off and I called Jake. He said it could be that the main sump was being overworked due to the heavy rains. He came out to check it. No pressure on his part to purchase a new one. We went ahead and had him install a new one. He was very professional. Left the work area clean. His fee was very reasonable. Would definitely recommend him to others."

"Mike D was out to help us with our sump system issue. We needed to replace our back up battery and our back up sump, which had failed. We decided to put in a new system that has a lot more safeguards. Our system, besides needing a new back up sump and battery, was antiquated a had issues with safeguards failing. This system is more technologically advanced than our old one and pumps more water out to boot. It also has more safeguards and fail safe measures. Not being a handy person nor having one in the house, I needed a system I wouldn't have to worry about. Mike has always done an outstanding job and helped us find the right system. Thanks Mike!"

"Tim Reed was very knowledgeable and persistent. I had a clog where my tub was filling up with sewage when the grey water sump pump pumped water into the drainage pipes. Over 20 years I have had on and off problems with this and it was getting worse. I had 2 plumbing companies come out before Precision, and they both said the old drainage pipes need to be replaced for over $2000.00. Tim was able to get rid of the clog with a special clog busting tool that was small enough to go into the small drainage pipes. The sump pump water now flows fast and does not come close to the tub drainage which was a problem when I first bought the house. So of course I am extremely happy to get rid of this persistent problem that has been plaguing me forever. Thank you."

"They were prompt in contacting me. Very courteous on the phone making the appointment. Fit their schedule to mine. Explained the difference between ejector and sump pump, making it easy for me to say replace the pump with a sump pump because it is just furnace condensate and softener water, nothing with solids. Tidy, courteous plumber. Liked having Kim to make contact with in the office rather than a plumber's cell phone."

Sump Pump Installation questions, answered by experts

In most cases, standard homeowners insurance policies do not cover damage from a sump pump failure or overflow. Coverage for water damage is often limited to sudden, unexpected events like a burst pipe that was not caused by negligence. To be covered for sump pump issues, you will likely need to purchase a specific rider, endorsement, or additional water backup insurance. If your insurer offers this type of coverage, they may require proof that your sump pump is regularly maintained.

You shouldn’t shower while a sump pump isn’t working. Although household wastewater isn’t supposed to go into the sump pit, it’s best to wait to shower until your sump pump is running properly and able to move excess water out of the basement. If you need to shower when the sump pump isn’t working, aim for a short shower.

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.

Sewer ejector pumps need to be cleaned at least once a year by a professional. You shouldn’t attempt to clean it yourself because it can release sewer gasses that are toxic to humans and can be fatal. But to keep the system as clean as possible between professional inspection and cleaning services, be sure to only flush human waste and toilet paper. Avoid flushing items that can clog the system, like paper towels, grease, oil, or menstruation products.

A sump pump should be placed at least three feet deep in a pit. The rim of the sump pump basin should be level with your basement floor. If you find your pit is too deep, you can fill the bottom with gravel until the rim of the sump pump is flush with the floor.
