"Truly a custom plumbing job beautifully done for an old cottage. It should be seen. Jamie hunted down and FOUND a rare water heater, installed on a Saturday morning no extra charge and added a bonus freeze proof external hose bib with easy shut off and NEW lines! He was diligent, focused and positive. The new beautiful sauntered lines look like art. THANK YOU FOR BEING THE FIRST CONTRACTOR IN A LONG TIME WHO I ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND. “GOT YOUR 6 ” Plumbing: -found and order a rare sized water heater -installed it thru a small opening-crawling dozens of feet across a narrow space - replaced a cheap hose bib and the flimsy plastic lines with sturdy plumbing - drove 40 minutes on two lane back roads then miles on a one lane road to the property on a Saturday morning pulling a trailer! Thank you so much for the peace of mind that a leak free hot hot water heater and the joy of a fancy hose bib. (Appreciate the koozies ! )"

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. 

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. 

If you have a self-cleaning washing machine but you’re still seeing lint, your water pump filter might be clogged. To clean it, you should unscrew the drain hose, then remove the water pump filter. From there, you can inspect it and clean it with warm water before replacing it. Check to be sure your washing machine is functioning by running a short cycle. 

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.

A sewage ejector pump is necessary if you have any plumbing fixtures, such as a bathroom, laundry room, or sink, located below the level of your home's main sewer line. Standard plumbing relies on gravity to move wastewater and solid waste to the municipal sewer or septic tank. However, for fixtures located below grade (e.g., in a basement), gravity is not sufficient.

The purpose of a sewage ejector pump is to actively pump this wastewater and solid waste upward into the main sewer line. Without an ejector pump in this situation, wastewater would have no way to exit and would eventually back up, causing a sewage overflow or flooding in your basement. If all of your home's plumbing is on the main floor or higher, gravity can handle the drainage, and an ejector pump is not needed.
