"On Sunday, July 1, the tenant in my rental property informed me of a leak between the 2nd and 3rd floors. This was frustrating because this same leak had supposedly been repaired four days earlier by another plumbing company that, of course I later learned, is closed on Sundays. I had a sense of urgency about the leak because it generated a steady enough flow to require a bucket had the potential to damage the adjacent central air/heating unit (which happened once before when the hot water heater of my upstairs neighbor failed.)  
I turned to Angie's List and found Charlie's Plumbing. Not only did the company have Sunday hours, but I was able to reach Charles directly via cell. He was able to fit me into his Sunday schedule (unlike another company I called that claimed to offer 24/7 service, but wanted me to wait until Monday) and quickly fix the problem.
As it turned out, the previous plumber had not fixed the problem correctly: the 3/4-inch pipe they installed was too short. Charles provided me a detailed invoice, which will be helpful in my dispute with the previous plumber.

"Joe arrived promptly as scheduled, and performed the work quickly and efficiently.  He explained the new system, the battery and the alarm on the sump pump.  He replaced the laundry room faucet, which was original to the house.  I will be contacting Joe in the near future to work on my kitchen and bathroom faucets.

"Installed a sump pump in our crawling space. They were really great to work with, responded very quickly, were able to assess the project accurately and give us a very competitive quote. Was very efficient and completed the project in half a day. They were friendly and happy to answer all of our questions as well as give us a range of options. Would definitely hire again."

"It went very well. Patrick explained everything he was doing and what my options were. I never felt he was trying to generate unnecessary work. He also understood the urgency and came out on a Sunday morning of a holiday weekend to handle the follow up. I would strongly recommend him and he'll be the first one I call if I need plumbing services in the future."

"Installation was GREAT!!!! Slyvester answered all my questions and was very professional and friendly. A/C working great. There was a mix up with payment up front, which costed about 35 minutes, but it was resolved and customer service said they would resolve this for future customers. If you plan to use multiple payment methods, my recommendation would be to have a backup plan or call the front office to arrange things before installation."

"Every things that these Plumbers did from greetings/conversation with me to the installion & clean up of my bathroom sink was just awesome. I would highly recommend them. The only negative remark toward Big Wrench Plumbing & Sewer is the Cost/Charge to do this was too high. Don't get me wrong everything else that was say/done to installed was just awesome."

Sump Pump Installation questions, answered by experts

Grinder pumps alone cost $300 on average. The average cost to install a new grinder pump is between $2,000 and $4,000, including the pump and labor. This price can also change based on the exact type of grinder pump you choose, labor costs in your area, and the power system your home currently has.

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.

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.

Some sump pumps are powered by water rather than electricity. Water-powered sump pumps generally use one gallon of city water to pump out two gallons of water from its basin. Therefore, if you're looking at a potential 10,000-gallon flood, your sump pump will need to use 5,000 gallons of city water to prevent it.

If your sump pump isn’t engaging, it might be clogged with dirt and debris. Check to see if the fitting lid is loose and has been letting debris in. Next, check the float and make sure it’s not obstructed by rust or gunk, which results from insufficient maintenance. Tangled wires or damaged switching systems can also stop your sump pump from engaging.
