"Absolutely miraculous job! They turned our wet nightmare dungeon into a perfectly dry basement! Highest recommendation! We got floor drains, sheeting over our stone foundation, a sump pump and floor drain at basement door. Work was fast, professionally and was exactly what the basement needed."

"The crew worked very efficiently and professionally, and completed the project in two days in cold early January weather, installing wall/ earth anchors and an interior french drain and sump pump. The foreman extensive experience with this type of work was obvious as he adapted to unforeseen conditions very calmly and professionally. Lastly they cleaned up the work sight perfectly including restoring the sod in the lawn. I'm very impressed with the company and their employees."

"Excellent. Dave was highly recommended and I also would highly recommend Dave Campbell plumbing and heating. I was contacted promptly, estimate provided with recommended work to fix the excessive water problems from running down hill behind the house. The water was also entering the septic system and needed replacement of existing leach field. Dave also recommended to install a sump pump in the basement to ensure the basement remains dry. Dave was able to start the project the next week and completed the project timely. He was very professional and performed a quality job that exceeded my expectations at a extremely reasonable price. The backyard is now dry and draining properly, the sump pump is running alot during this rainy spring weather and the new leach field is operating efficiently. Dave also regraded the yard which looks amazing. Again, I can not thank Dave Campbell plumbing enough for the excellent work and I highly recommend his quality work."

"Hired Bracken to do an interior French drain and a sump pump for a house I am selling. My buyers had requested this install before we could close on the house. Danny came out quickly to look at the project and was able to give me a reasonable quote on the spot. After my buyers dragged their feet for 2 weeks trying to decide if they wanted to take a credit they returned to the original plan of having the install completed before we could close on the house. I reached back out to Danny and he was able to rearrange the schedule to get his team out to get the work done less than a week after contact. I couldn’t be happier with the service and the final product is very professional looking and should last a long time for my buyers. I am now able to sell the house without extending the closing date again and I’m thrilled about that. I will be using this company again for any similar projects and would recommend others do the same. Thank you Bracken Waterproofing!"

"Jim was very friendly, knowledgeable and had a great attitude. They were able to fit me in at the last minute. Originally they were coming in just to do the sewage trap and I pointed out my main water line coming into my house so they were flexible enough to do both of those projects. In a short period of time. Would suggest them to anyone who needed plumbing work!"

"Aquaguard's service at my home was done many years ago when I was getting basement water with rainstorms of far less strength and duration than shat we are experiencing today. After the aftermath of Ida, I thought that it would be helpful for those of you who are considering this company to know that to this date,, Acquagard's french drains have kept my basement completely dry. With this company comes a reasonable price, outstanding service, and most important of all, the security of knowing that you no longer have to experience the dread of walking down those steps and seeing a disaster! As an aside, my neighbors and I both had drains done at the same time. They chose a company less than $200 cheaper and ended up in arbitration for the work done."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Avonmore, PA

Most residential pumps draw approximately 1,300 to 2,900 watts when they first start, then settle at roughly 800 to 1,050 watts during normal operation. The exact number depends on the motor’s horsepower and how often the float switch tells the pump to run. Even at the high end, the electricity cost is minor compared with the expense of cleaning up a flooded basement.

Grab a ruler and an empty 18‑inch‑wide pit. During a steady rain, time how much the water rises in one minute. Multiply that depth (in inches) by 60 to calculate gallons per hour, then add 50% for safety. If the result tops 2,100 gallons per hour—about 35 gallons a minute—you’ll need a 3/4‑horsepower unit. Anything lower, and a 1/3- or 1/2-horsepower pump should do the trick.

Loud rattling, constant cycling, or shuddering vibrations are the pump’s way of telling you it’s on its last legs. Musty smells, higher electric bills, and visible rust are other red flags. If the unit is 10 years old or older and exhibits any of these symptoms, replace it before the next heavy rain turns your basement into a wading pool.

You don’t have to hire a licensed plumber, but you should still bring in someone who installs sump pumps for a living—whether that’s a plumber, basement‑waterproofing specialist, or experienced handyman. They know the local codes, can wire the pump safely, and will test the system before they leave. Skipping professional help might void the warranty and could leave you with a pump that fails when you need it most.

Not every basement needs a pump, but if your home sits in a floodplain, has a high water table, or has ever taken on water during a storm, a sump pump is inexpensive insurance. For basements that only struggle with condensation or the occasional damp spot, sealing cracks and improving drainage may be all that is needed.
