"In this day and age it's refreshing to find a plumber with experience, customer service skills and excellent prices. A slowly leaking well water pump was installed in less than ninety minutes. Upon completion the job site was cleaned up and a thorough explanation of the features and controls was priovided. In closing keep this gentleman on speed dial, you won't be disappointed!"

"I had a new driveway installed and let me just say that I would hire this company to any of my concrete needs. They are very professional and friendly people. Could not have asked for any better type of customer service then I received from Melody, Robert, Chris, Paul and the concrete guys. They are GREAT at what they do and they take pride in what they do. If I could, I would give them a thousand stars, that is just how GREAT this experience was. There are not many business' anymore that have this type of work ethic and pride in what this company does. Most would say that 'oh that can't be true,' let's just say for you to experience this kind of service, hire them to do a job for you and I am quite sure you will be impressed as well. It has been a VERY LONG time that you could actually hold a conversation with a contractor and actually discuss world events without someone being offended. These folks are the most polite people I have come across and if there was a way I could post a picture of what I hired them to do, you too would be AMAZED at how GREAT it turned out. Let me also say that if someone were to ask me if I knew of a concrete company in the area that I suggest, it would be Fast Lane Contracting a zillion times over. They tell you what they are going to do, and let me say 'they are a company of their word.' They wanted to make sure that what they had done was what I had asked of them and they did make my place look like it did prior to the new driveway going in and the end result blows me away as too how wonderful of a job they had done. I have already told people that I talk to if you need concrete done, they need to use this company and nobody else. I believe in what I write here and I believe what the consult with me prior to doing the job. Great job from the beginning with Melody and all the way through until the backfill was complete. A huge BZ (Bravo Zulu) to Robert, Chris, Paul and of course the concrete crew. Thank you for a job WELL DONE!!"

"I want to recognize three young men who recently completed our basement work through Groundworks: Matt, Taylore, & Gavin. The work was thorough, clearly explained, & the finished product looks excellent. But the biggest positive was the crew. They worked incredibly hard every day on a physically demanding, messy job, yet remained professional, disciplined, & respectful. They took great care of our home, kept debris contained, & cleaned up afterward. Matt took time to explain the full system to us & went above & beyond to help replace insulation that had fallen, even though it wasn't part of the job. Taylore & Gavin were equally helpful, helping us salvage & store shelving materials and remove a few stubborn pieces we couldn't manage ourselves. I'm genuinely impressed by their work ethic, attitude, & pride in doing the job right. I would absolutely recommend Groundworks, but especially these three young men. They represented the company exceptionally well!"

Foundation Drain Installation FAQs, answered by experts

Installation typically takes 1-2 days, depending on the scope and site preparation.

If you hire a professional, installing a new sewage ejector pump costs $850 to $3,500, or an average of $2,300. Otherwise, if you handle the installation yourself, you can expect to pay $500 to $1,000 for the sewage ejector pump, permits, and other supplies required for this DIY project.

Yes, it’s possible to install a sewage ejector pump outside rather than in a basement. However, there may be some extra steps involved, including running pipes from the inside to the outside of your home and digging (and re-filling) a hole for the basin. If you aren’t comfortable with this type of work, contact a plumbing pro to handle it for you.

Statistics show that 98% of basements will experience some form of water damage over time. However, that doesn’t mean all basements will experience severe flooding. The best way to prevent a water-damaged basement is to keep up with home maintenance and have proper drainage installed outside your home to direct water away from the foundation. You can also consider building a flood wall around the house if you live in a flood-prone area.

Ideally, your sump pump discharge should run down a natural downhill slope 10 to 20 feet away from your home’s foundation. However, if your property is naturally flat, that might not be an option. Instead, you may be able to discharge it into a neighborhood storm drain or a nearby creek or pond. If that’s not possible, consider burying it underground.
