"Everything went great! I just moved to a new house and have had a lot of contractors and companies come out to do work - Christian has been the best of them all! I needed a kitchen faucet replacement, Garbage disposal replacement, and a leak fixed in the downstairs bathroom. Christian did a great job with everything- he gave me options for how to fix the downstairs leak (patching it up, which would be less time/cheaper or making a new hole for the pipe so that it was done the correct way). I really appreciated him taking the time to educate me on the plumbing in my new home and being up front about the costs and effort for the repairs/installations. He is very professional, personable and has a wonderful attitude. He even came out and installed 2 new shower heads for me even though it was a very small job - i wanted to make sure i had not messed anything up when i installed one myself. Don't hesitate to call him you will not be disappointed - I will definitely be calling him in the future for any plumbing work!"

"Sam arrived on time. In preparation they placed drop clothes from the front door down the stairs and to the work site. They replaced our sump pump, explained how the new one works…..it has a battery backup in case of power outages. Very pleasant team, and excellent clean up both in the house and outside on the driveway."

"Great job! They did a very professional, thorough upfront planning prior to installation. The installation team was very courteous. We were quite pleased with the system. They also offer other services, so it is nice to be able to use one company. We are having them do aerating and over-seeding next."

Sump Pump Installation questions, answered by experts

Most sump pumps come with power cords that can be plugged into an outlet, but there are options that can be hardwired into a home’s electrical system. Either way, it’s smart to have a backup power supply in case the electricity goes out during a storm. That way, the sump pump can keep running and removing water from the sump pit.

A small sump pump running infrequently uses an average of 10 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per month. The average cost for electricity is $0.171 per kWh. The size and use frequency affect how much electricity it uses. Sump pumps average one-third to one horsepower (hp) motors. One hp is equal to 745.7 watts. Watts multiplied by the time your pump is running divided by 1,000 equals your average kWh. Multiply kWh by your average cost of electricity. In areas with high rain or a marsh basin, the average cost can be as high as $15-$25 a month.

A sump pump's lifespan is typically 7 to 10 years, though the general range can be anywhere from 5 to 15 years. The specific type of pump is a major factor: pedestal sump pumps last an average of 20 to 25 years, whereas submersible sump pumps last between 5 and 15 years. While pedestal pumps are less expensive to service, they are also louder and more prone to clogging.

Several other factors influence longevity, including the pump's quality, usage frequency, and maintenance schedule. A high-quality pump that is well-maintained in a dry climate may last for two decades, while a lower-quality, poorly maintained pump in an area with a high water table or frequent flooding may fail in six years or less.

Regular maintenance, including annual inspections and tuneups from a professional, can significantly extend the pump's life. It is time to consider a replacement if your sump pump runs constantly, cycles frequently, shows visible rust or corrosion, or trips a circuit breaker. As a preventative measure, many homeowners replace their pumps every eight years. It's also worth noting that a manufacturer's warranty can indicate expected lifespan, and some home insurance policies may not cover water damage from a pump that is past its recommended replacement date.

A sump pump battery backup can typically run for 6 to 24 hours. The factors that affect its runtime include the battery capacity and pump usage. 

When purchasing your backup system, take these factors into consideration to determine which system is best for your home. If you live in an area with frequent and long-lasting power outages, consider a longer-lasting backup battery.

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.
