"Arrived on time. Was very professional and knowledgeable. Only recommended part replacement if it was what was truly needed. Price is a little higher than some, but still reasonable."

"We couldn't be more pleased with Indiana Foundation Service! After living in our home for many years we finally have sump pumps and a drain in our crawlspace with a new vapor barrier. The crawlspace was always wet in the spring with a musty smell that transmitted to the living space. While we would have preferred an encapsulation the cost was more than we were comfortable with. Jamie Montgomery, Raymond Martin, and Jeremy Pyles were excellent! They arrived on time, went to work immediately, protected the interior of our home and cleaned up completely afterwards. The whole process was most professional, from the initial call to Aaron Ewert, salesperson. Everything was like clock work. Highly recommend Indiana Foundation Service!"

"I cannot say enough good things about this company, about Chris the owner, about the respect for the client that he has, the performance of the job, sincere dedication to every detail including all clean up..we appreciate ALL the HONEST communication AND Transparency during the whole process before, during and after. He the best man for this huge job. $7000 was alot of money- he understood BUT WE COULDN'T HAVE CHOSE ANYONE BETTER! THERE IS NO COMPANY (IN OUR OPINION) THAT WE FOUND FOR SEWER REPAIR TO BE MORE PROFESSIONAL, HIGHLY SKILLED SKILLED, HARD WORKING, VERY HONEST, EXTREMELY DEPENDABLE AND DEFINITELY MORE TRUSTWORTHY THAN HIS COMPETITORS. WE đź’Ż WOULD RECOMMEND HIM- SPROCKET EXCAVATING TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR THE BEST. HE WAS WORTH EVERY PENNY. 5 STAR ALL THE WAY. BESIDES, HE IS VERY KIND AND CONSIDERATE TO HIS CUSTOMERS - even those who ask a lot of questions about the entire process. Thank YOU CHRIS FOR BEING PATIENT AND FOR EVERYTHING ELSE TOO!"

I am a jack of trades independent contractor/ handyman with 10+ years experience. I am not a licensed plumber, licensed electrician, or licensed roofer. With that said it's easier to just tell you the things that I don't do. I do not do drain work, I do not replace electrical lines or panel boxes, I do not replace plumbing lines which includes water and gas, and I do not replace roofs. Aside from that I can do everything else, and have the tools to do so.

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Bloomington, IL

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.
