"I would just like to say that I had a wonderful experience working with Everdry. The team leader was very professional and did the work in a timely and efficient manner. Workers were polite and knew their jobs very well. They all worked well together and made the job move smoothly. We have had no water problems since the work was done. One problem with the sump pump and they came out and replaced it for us. So keep on the warranty cost every year. KB of Toledo"
"Ethan Irish inspected the jacks FSM installed and made appropriate adjustments. He also serviced the dehumidifier and sump pump. EXCELLENT service and after 4 years, FSM is the best investment we made in renovating our home. Great system, great service and great people like Ethan."
"The workers were really nice and prompt, they even loaned us a pump. It was a very difficult job because of the weather and it was hard for them to get their equipment in the neighborhood., but they were very pleasant. They worked hard and stuck to their price."
"The work was done as scheduled (within weeks of the quote). The installers were courteous and professional. They took extraordinary care to keep the cement dust to a minimum. It has been over a year since the work was done, and I am still very pleased. I have a nice, dry basement."
"He was very professional and did a good job. He even came early. He gave me a selection of products to install. And he even came back later to check to see that everything was ok. I highly recommend Edge plumbing."
"Called in claim on 6/18; tech assigned on 6 /19; so far so good. Claim was for failed well pump with NO water to my home with two disabled seniors. Due to heavy workload and no extra pay on weekends the tech came for diagnostics 4 days later. He verified the failed pump and tried to purchase one at Home Depot. None in stock, had to be ordered. Pump came in on 6/30 and tech arrived today, 7/1, and expertly installed the new pump. Choice has a $ 500 limit on well repair, which is 1/3 of a typical bill. That dollar cap is riduculous. On a positive note, C-Force provides expert work for Choice and would be my choice for any future work."
"Excellent work by skilled tradesman! I had Lance and his crew install a concrete driveway. They worked their tails off to get it done in time, on budget, and were respectful of my family and neighbors. I liked them so much I had them do a bathroom remodel. Same thing as before, excellent work, on time and respectful of my family and home. I can’t say enough good about this company. It’s hard to find these days!!"
"We initially thought that there was a leak in the line for which a quote was provided. Once the line was uncovered to repair the leak it was discovered that the entire line (lead pipe which had been installed when the house was built in 1967) was corroded and would probably continue to spring leaks even after the first was repaired. The contractor recommended that the entire line be replaced although he was more than willing to repair only the leak for the initial estimate of $195. I agreed with his recommendation. The repair was expected to take several days so the contractor ran a temporary supply line to the house so that we would not be without water. We were totally satisfied with the work that was completed and that the employees were professional and courteous. "
"Called AHS....who sent service request to AAA Flexible Pipe. Adam came out quickly and installed new pump just before HEAVY rains hit...Fast and efficient service from AHS and AAA FLEXIBLE PIPE CLEANING."
Sump Pump Installation questions, answered by experts
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.
Several indicators suggest it's time for a sump pump replacement. A key factor is age; if the pump is over 10 years old, its lifespan is likely ending. Performance issues are also clear signs, such as the pump running constantly, cycling on and off frequently, making unusual noises or vibrations, or failing to function at all. A faulty or burnt-out motor is another definite sign a replacement is needed. Additionally, if you notice any signs of incorrect installation, the pump should be replaced. For a definitive diagnosis, a vetted plumber can assess the pump and confirm whether a replacement is necessary.
Inspect the pump annually, test the float switch, and clean the discharge line to ensure efficient operation.
The most common cause of a clogged sump pump is natural debris buildup. As water enters the sump pit, it can carry small pieces of debris that build up over time, or the debris can get caught in the filter. If you forget to cover the pit after cleaning the sump pump and pit, debris can also collect in the pit. Corrosion on the metal discharge pipe can also clog the pump. Additionally, if your pipes freeze, it can prevent water from draining properly and cause a clog.
If you’re wondering if your home even needs a sump pump, consider whether you’ve struggled with flooding issues in the past. If your house is in a flood-prone area, your yard has poor drainage, or you’ve dealt with any other water problems, then it’s likely well worth it to replace your old sump pump with a new one.
