"Other then starting a couple days late, due to being behind schedule on another job (not surprising since we scheduled this task, as I recall, about 4-5 months in advance) everything went beautifully.
The arrived when they said they would and their entire crew was extremely professional, respectful and helpful, especially Dave, who is the foreman. Anytime any of us went into the basement to see how everything were progressing the crew would stop what they were doing and show us around and explain exactly what they were doing as well as what was left.
As for the job itself, our basement has always been wet, and actually had water tricking in it from between the steps in the stairs under the bilco doors.(we live near Lake Erie and with the water table so high there we figured nothing could be done about it, but boy were we ever wrong, since they were finished the basement has been perfectly dry and much brighter (the wall panels they use are white, which really brightens up the space.) We've had some major rains since it's been done and we don't have a drop of water anywhere anymore.
Simply put, the job consisted of digging around the entire interior perimeter of the basement, putting in drainage, a new sump pump system with drains to the outside and away from the house, and then putting down fresh concrete over the drainage system and old sump pump hole. In addition they wired in a new power circuit just for the pump ,so something else in the house tripping a breaker wont kill power to the pump. It sounds simple, but it was a lot of hard, heavy and wet work and of course there was far more to it then I can describe.
My wife and I both expect this would make the basement dryer, but neither of us expected it to work so well. We would have been happy had it simply been dry enough that we could store things down there without them ending up covered in mold, but instead we got a basement that not only can be used for storage, but is even dry enough to use as living space.
In you live in Chautauqua County and have a wet/damp basement don't even think about it, call Shaun today and get him out to your place as soon as humanly possible. You wont be sorry, and you won't believe how huge a difference it will make (Shaun told us we wouldn't believe it, but we figured it was hype, but boy were we wrong,  he was absolutely right.)
This is one of those rare occasions where the my only complaint is that we didn't do this years ago immediately after we bought the house!

"MVPlumbing is my go to guy for plumbing. We had a crushed sink drain that used it's own leach bed. He disconnected the drain to the bad system, capped off the old line inside the house and tied the sink into our main septic line. He is quick and efficient, and prices are great."

Wells and Pumps questions, answered by experts

The costs depend on whether you are buying into an existing well or starting from scratch. The average well drilling cost is between $25 and $60 per foot. The average cost to repair a well is between $350 and $1500. If you have a shared agreement and a community association, there will be additional legal and administrative fees. 

No, a larger well pressure tank will not increase your home's water pressure by itself. Water pressure is determined by the pressure control switch on the well pump.

However, a larger tank does offer other benefits. It can store more water, which allows you to run water for longer periods before the pump needs to turn on. This reduces how often the pump cycles on and off, leading to less wear and tear on the pump and the entire well system. Consequently, a larger tank can help extend the life of your equipment and may prevent future pump issues that could affect water pressure.

If your goal is to increase water pressure, consider these alternatives:

  • Adjust the pressure settings on your tank to a higher PSI (pounds per square inch).

  • Replace your current pump with a model that has a higher flow rate, measured in gallons per minute (GPM).

  • Have a professional install a water pressure booster pump in your plumbing system.

  • If you experience pressure fluctuations, consider upgrading to a constant pressure system.

Several signs can indicate a faulty well pump pressure switch. These include your pump running continuously, the pump not turning on at all, or a sudden and complete loss of water. Other symptoms are weak water pressure or an erratic, unpredictable water flow from your fixtures. If you notice these issues, the pressure switch may be the cause. Testing the switch can help diagnose the problem. A faulty switch will likely need to be repaired or replaced. If the issue is more complex, it's best to consult a professional well technician to ensure your water supply is restored correctly.

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. 

With regular servicing and general upkeep, both a well pump and pressure tank can last for years. The average lifespan of a well pump is around eight to 15 years. A well pressure tank can last from seven to 10 years. How long a well pump and pressure tank lasts also depends on a variety of factors such as type, size, material, and brand.
