"I contacted Charlie to install water lines and gas pipes for washer and dryer in a single family home that was in the final process of renovation as a rental. A licensed electrician had brought up the electrical to code, but the contractor, as part of the kitchen remodeling job, had done plumbimg from kitchen to basement. Charlie did an excellent job in installing the water lines, gas pipes and connections for the washer and dryer. He was also very thorough and generous with his time in reviewing the whole house inside-outside plumbing without any expectation of being hired to do additional work. He was very patient in helping me understand technical requirements and what options were available to avoid future problems. Charlie discovered that water lines from the dishwasher and pipes from kitchen to basement had been installed incorrectly. In addition, there were many basement plumbing ?repairs? the previous elderly owner had done that were of a temporary nature and had potential for disaster. Based on my initial experience of Charlie?s performance, I did hire him to update all the kitchen and basement plumbing, install new vanity and fixtures in two bathrooms, clean outside sewer, and other miscellaneous work. He also volunteered work free of charge outside the scope of our agreement, like replacing broken tiles and caulking the bathtub. Charlie?s responsiveness to my scheduling needs and the quality of his finished work were excellent, and his fees were fair considering the work done, the time spent and the good quality. I am confident the plumbing is in order now, and I also know I can count on Charlie for other requirements or for any emergencies 24/7 that may come up in the future."

"The technician came out after-hours to look at my sump-pump, which was stuck in the "on" position. He got it working properly, then we discussed pros and cons of keeping a 10-year-old pump. I opted to replace, and he was back the next day, on time. He put the new unit in and tested it. Something was not right with the backup pump. He brought a whole new setup the next day and completed the job. This company has seasoned technicians who have been with them for years."

"Daniel and co. did a very thorough job and informed me of what they were doing throughout the process. He was familiar with the flood control system a previous owner installed so he was able to identify the problem(s) quickly and get them fixed. He was straightforward and always quite open about the cost. We're kind of going to have to wait until the next big precipitation event to make sure the flood system is working again but at least there's no more water in our basement!"

Sump Pump Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

A sump pump can be plugged into a regular, 110-volt outlet with three-prong openings, but it must have GFCI protections per the NEC, meaning you’ll need a GFCI outlet and circuit. Sump pumps require two outlet openings, one for the plug to the motor and one for the float switch.

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.

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.

Inspect the pump annually, test the float switch, and clean the discharge line to ensure efficient operation.
