"James and his son provide top-notch work and are an absolute pleasure to work with. I asked them to do a major upgrade on the house’s pipes and drains, and couldn’t be happier with the results, efficiency, professionalism, can-do attitude and responsiveness. I had minor other issues about 8 weeks later and James answered the call immediately and solved those items also. It goes without saying we’re now friends and the levels of trust are complete. He’s gone on to do work for my cousins and aunt, both on short notice and with completely satisfactory results. His quality of work is, basically, perfect. Thanks, James, for making my time in Denver working on my projects a success."

"we just had issues with the sump pump not working correctly after the new one was installed, we called the company and they came back a couple of times until it was fixed. the only issue I have is that it should work the first time and it should be a quality sump pump for 850.00. However it works now, but my son said the new parts are not 5 star quality. I don't know, all I know is its working, I guess ask me in a couple of years. but it works now."

"Jordan was awesome! He initially sent one of his guys out to check for some gurgling and sediment in our plumbing in the basement. They took a good look and found some grading issues with our pipes. Jordan followed up with me after and then committed to coming out himself to determine options. Throughout it all he was very communicative and extremely knowledgeable. We discussed some options and moved forward with the one that made the most sense. The issue was addressed and Jordan followed up later on to make sure everything was still good. Highly recommend Jordan and team dr.drain!"

"Jason Dodge did a great job. Not only did he snake the drain in no time at all but he noticed the hot and cold water were reversed on my sink faucet and in 3 minutes he corrected it no charge! He couldn't have been nicer. I was only charged $100. for the whole thing. they have definitely become my go-to plumber!"

"Everything was fine. Our sewer clean out line was not installed correctly, which meant that the plumber had to take off our toilet to access and scope the sewer, but he was friendly, courteous, and as quick as was possible, all things considered."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Boulder, CO

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.
