"My basement was getting some water in a corner during a heavy rain and I was able to have that corner repaired and also have a sump pump installed that can communicate with my phone and give me alerts to my phone if something isnâ t working properly. The new sump pump alone was worth everything."

"We had Liberty General Contracting, LLC replace the drainage around our basement and install two sump pumps, and the whole experience was great. Steve was easy to work with, professional, and kept everything straightforward and stress-free. There was a small issue that happened after the work was completed, but they came back quickly and fixed it without hesitation?excellent service and I?d definitely recommend them."

"I had an issue with the initial technician, so I called and asked to speak to a services manager. The manager promptly returned my call, and arranged for another technician to come to my house. The second technician ("handlebar Chuck) was awesome! The customer services was EXCELLENT!!! He patiently listened to my concerns, answered all of my questions and provided me accurate information re: the cost of repair vs. replacement. I decided to replace the water heater and, even though it very late in the day, Chuck was able to install the new water heater that evening."

"I was very impressed with the quality and efficiency of the work performed by Ivan G., Antony M., and Austin W. I had been experiencing high humidity and odors from a crawlspace that needed to be encapsulated. The team came at about 9 a.m. and were finished by noon. They installed a double layer of material (a thick waffle-like layer and a top layer of heavy plastic) in the crawlspace, and up the walls. They applied foam to the perimeter beams. They installed a dehumidifier which empties directly into the sump pump and which self-boots after a power-outage. As the three men worked, I noticed their focus, team work, and knowledge of the process. It was like watching a ballet. They were excellent workers, courteous, and experienced. Highly trained. I would recommend Ohio Basement Authority to anyone with a basement or crawlspace problem. Thank you."

"Xavier completed the installation and fully tested the system with me there to observe to confirm operation of my existing sump pump and the new battery back up pump. While there he troubleshot a check valve problem that was discovered during testing and installed new check valves with no up charge from his quoted price."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Canal Winchester, OH

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.
