"Our Waterproofing system was installed 5 years ago. The exterior drain oipe from the sump pump needed to be replaced. The crew, Chris and Will, showed up on time, knew what needed to be done and completed the job quickly and efficiently. We were very satisfied with the job."

"Needed a leaking pipe fixed and hot water tank replaced, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. From the moment I called, they were prompt, courteous, and professional. Andrew arrived on time, quickly diagnosed the issue, and explained everything clearly before starting the work. He was efficient, cleaned up after the job, and ensured everything was working perfectly before leaving. The pricing was fair, with no hidden costs, and the quality of work was top-notch. I highly recommend"

"Our very old home in the city of Buffalo had a large cast iron sewer line leading out that was clearly on its last legs after one hundred and thirty years--and in the middle of the winter the line finally broke open. The pipe was broken right at the junction where the sewer line entered into the foundation of the house before turning to the street. The fear was that if the pipe going into the wall also came apart during this replacement we would need to bring in backhoes and all that sort of thing. After getting one quote of a somewhat-too-easy "Five thousand dollars," I decided to try another plumber. I called Cellino based on their reviews. John C. came out, gave me a straight-up and detailed quote, explained carefully what he would do and how he wuld do it, and after a couple of days I decided to follow my instincts. I thought I could trust this man from Cellino, and I was right. Once I set things up, I crossed my fingers. I say this because, again, if that pipe in the wall did break, then things would certainly have taken a negative turn. John knew I was worried about that, but he was patient and assured me that he'd do everything to keep that from happening. In short, the main (broken) pipe was removed, new PVC was installed, and after a few hours we had a system that was up and running and likely to last another one hundred years. While I understand that Cellino doesn't pretend to be the cheapest plumber on the block, we are reminded that we get what we pay for most of the time. And in this case they did save us three thousand dollars. Of course we are going to call on them again, and we already have a project that we expect to tell them about in the near future. *My rating doesn't include a response to punctuality because this was not a time-critical matter as we have a second sewer line and I had set aside an entire day for the work to be done. John was in fact delayed at an earlier job, but he called and assured me he was coming. And that's that. Again, I paid a third of what the other plumber was asking for. At the end of the day I wrote a check for the exact amount on my estimate--down to the penny."

"Had broken sewer pipe connecting from our house towards street. They were very responsive, came on time, worked all day in the rain, and dealt with unexpected complications super competently (basically sewage was flowing in the wrong direction from the town towards our property, and they had to coordinate with the town and approach it with more complicated technical approaches). Everything still got done that day, and gave us a very good price! One of the smoothest and most professional contractors I’ve dealt with! Could have been a nightmare scenario in the wrong hands."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Cheektowaga, NY

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.
