"I called these guys after a quick online search and needed someone to come that day to clear a drain and check all our the plumbing in the house we just purchased after a major flooding incident. The tech they sent was right on time, fast, knowledgeable and friendly. He had been in plumbing for several decades and knew his stuff, he put my mind at ease instantly about the fixtures and cleared the drains that were clogged quickly. I wouldn't hesitate to use these guys again!"

"Todd and his crew helped save my home sale! They quickly addressed the items on the home inspection report, going above and beyond to ensure all safety items were corrected appropriately. His team is professional, courteous, thorough and work quickly. The water heater repair and piping, floor drain, sink repair, dishwasher installation and toilet installation were each addressed in a timely manner. His prices are competitively fair, and all work has been impeccably completed to satisfy the inspectors and me. In the past, they've fixed my drains and sewer lines, too. They do the job right and are my go-to professionals when I need help."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Colorado Springs, 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.
