"Very Professional, from the Salesman to the Office personnel. I was told there would be a foreman on the site to oversee work to be completed, there was none. When the install tech cut into my supply line, vice running a separate drain line as I was instructed would happen, instead of a supervisor or other responsible person, a second tech was sent to assist with the install. NOONE from the company reached out to me in reference to the mistake that was made and no compensations were offered. When I reached out to my sales rep, I was instructed the production team is handling it. That was it. The install tech resolved the issue (that he created) and was very apologetic and cleaned up everything before leaving for the day and made sure everything was back to normal and working. The first dehumidifier that was installed did not work. I had to wait another day for a second, new, dehumidifier to be installed. In the end, a one day install took 3 days (five if you include Sat and Sun) but everything is installed and working correctly, it appears. With the mistakes that were made, The company has a very good reputation and I would not judge just on one job, but things do happen. Everyone is very polite and professional and will answer questions if you ask. No one wants to deal with mistakes obviously. I would recommend, however. This company did the previous install on my house (prior to my purchase of it) and it is a very good quality install."

"They came out immediately to install new battery-powered sump with storm looming nearby. Came, installed, tested and did not leave until they knew everything was working properly. Very good people. Would call them again for sure."

"Replaced a 25-year-old under-house sump pump. The pump costs about $200 at Home Depot. They charged me $875. They did have to slog through some water to get to the old unit in a very tight crawl space. Overall, they were prompt, responsive, courteous and got the job done right."

It went very well.  This is the second time we have used Plumb Magic - the first being to have a backup sump pump installed.  Kevin has done both installations and been terrific.  The office staff is top-notch and the owner was a huge help in helping us make a decision on which filter option to go with.  We will recommend them and use them again.

"They came out and had a hard time finding the outside pipe inlet cap so they could use the camera to inspect the pipe. They had to use the inlet in my utility room. In the course of using their cameria they found the outside inlet cap. I was so surprised that we had PVC piping, as our house was built in 1977, we are the second owners and did not have any piping replaced. I was getting nervous that as I came and went in my neighborhood that occasionally I came across a yard dug up from the house to the sewer hookup. When this deal came along I got it and I am glad that I did. It is such a relief that I do not have to worry about tree roots, voles or moles digging through the pipe, the pipes crumbling or have the entire pipe system replaced. The camera showed a really clean pipe system and as I said it was a huge load off of my shoulders.

Sump Pump Installation questions, answered by experts

A sump pump should be placed at least three feet deep in a pit. The rim of the sump pump basin should be level with your basement floor. If you find your pit is too deep, you can fill the bottom with gravel until the rim of the sump pump is flush with the floor.

Costs depend on pump type, labor rates, and the extent of repairs or installation needs.

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.

Installing a battery backup for your sump pump is recommended, particularly if you live in an area with frequent power outages or severe rainstorms. A sump pump requires electricity to function, and a battery backup ensures it can continue to move water out of your home if the power goes out, providing crucial protection against flooding. Additionally, frequent power outages can create electrical surges that might damage the sump pump's motor. A battery backup system offers an additional layer of protection, ensuring your basement stays dry.

A water pressure booster doesn't require special maintenance. Like any house system, inspections should be a regular part of your annual schedule. Check for leaks, faulty valves, pressure loss, and mineral build-up. Pressure loss could be a result of mineral build-up, and you can descale the system with a vinegar and water solution.
