"Prompt service...technician explained everything he did and how the sump pump and monitor works...patiently answered all questions...cleaned up area after doing the work...scheduling person was also quite nice"
"Keith had came out and figured out the problem with the well within 24 of me calling him and came out and installed a well pump the same week. We got clean water and was back to normal!"
"Had two sump pumps installed. Didn’t feel upsell/cross sell pressure and person was very seasoned plumber that also was helpful in consultation on some other stuff in the new house. Very responsive on Angi app. Easy."
"We wanted a sink installed. They did a good job of describing the job and giving us feedback on what I needed. Their feedback actually made us modify what we were doing. They did provide an estimate but I did not hire them. I definitely appreciated their advice."
"Steve and Bob were very polite, professional and easy to talk to. They really had a mess on their hands with the 60 year old rotten main septic line. As they were fixing that, they found out why that wall of the basement was always wet. I had a major leak in the sump pump line. And, even though they had been here all day working on the main septic line. They wouldn't leave until the sump pump was fixed too. You just don't find companies or workers that care that much these days. I really made the right choice in AMANDA PLUMBING! If you need a GREAT Plumber that knows what they are doing Call Amanda! All the other guys are just guys looking for a big pay check! You're going to have to get in line though. Cause I've got two more jobs for them."
"Xavier responded promptly and scheduled our replacement sump pump install for the same afternoon. He was ahead of schedule and texted to see if he could come slightly early. That was great! He explained everything, including the warranty. Both gentlemen were friendly. Price was very reasonable."
"Mid-State Basement Systems came highly recommended by a good friend from Buffalo, NY and they did not disappoint. From start to finish they were very professional yet personable. Larry & Phil in the initial stages of the basement inspection and a reasonable quote. Silvino and his team who done the actual work was incredible, done with absolute excellence. They were here when they said they would be and finished the job a day ahead of schedule. I am thoroughly pleased with this company, first class. I highly recommend them if you need work done on your basement.******"
"Outstanding customer service and quality work. They were on time, quoted me a fair price and got to work right away. Rob was friendly and knowledgeable. He found all the leaks and, when faced with an unusual piping structure, didn't flinch at getting in there and getting the job done right."
Sump Pump Installation questions, answered by experts
DIY is possible for simple repairs. Professional services ensure proper diagnostics and long-term reliability.
Test regularly, clean the pump, and inspect the discharge line to ensure efficient operation.
A sump pump can be plugged into a regular, 110-volt outlet with three-prong openings, but it must have GFCI protections per the NEC, meaning you’ll need a GFCI outlet and circuit. Sump pumps require two outlet openings, one for the plug to the motor and one for the float switch.
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.
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.
