"The Clean Plumber made an appointment for the next day, showed up on time, brought the proper equipment, and snaked the drain for a reasonable price. The job was guaranteed for 30 days. When a subsequent back-up occurred, the technician came back the following day, re-snaked the line, and cleaned it again. We have had no further blockages. Thanks"

"The work done wasn’t what is shown above, but that was the closest option. The plumbing was checked throughout the house. He inspected all sink and tub/shower drains and valves, the sump pump, hot water heater, and main water shutoff. He explained any possible problems that could be changed. He was pleasant and helpful. I would recommend him and request him for future issues."

"Project: Install 100 foot French Drain Our sales representative Dave Premo was well informed of the unique specifications for our French Drain installation. He professionally managed our project from start to finish and was readily available to answer our questions. Our 3 person Torres Team who installed our French Drain had a stellar work ethic. They communicated with us when we asked questions and took great care to install the pipe pitch as appropriate. They also did a superb job cleaning up our residential job site after the drain was installed. We would recommend Dave Premo and the Torres Team."

"I experienced plumbing issues over the weekend and this company was the first to respond. The young lady that answered the phone ( Jo) was very pleasant and informative and that's when I knew I made the right choice to use this company for my plumbing needs. My appointment was originally scheduled for 4:00 PM but Jo advised me that she would do her best to have someone out sooner. Eddie arrived hours before my scheduled appointment which made me very happy. Eddie did a fantastic job with unclogging the drains in my home. Eddie was also informative and provided me with suggestions on how to avoid drain clogs in the future. If you are looking for a company that is responsive, on time, and cares about you as a customer, this is the company for you. Thank you so much, Jo, Eddie, and Trust Eb Plumbing for such a great experience. This company has already been hired for my next plumbing job."

"The best way to earn word of mouth recommendations is to EXCEED your customer's expectations and. D and C Air and Water certainly did that in our case, going WAY beyond the call of duty - more so than ANY service provider I can recall in the decades I have been a home owner in the Tampa Bay area.
I found D and C while looking through Angie's List for a water conditioning service that had strong recommendations and was located near our Land O Lakes home. Our old low end water softener and water filtering system had stopped function so I wanted to look at both repair options and the cost of a new, professional grade system for both softening and filtering water.
If you are like me, you detest high pressure sales tactics, so I was delighted when D and C owner Dan and his assistant Tim came out and proved to be NO pressure guys. In fact after spending an hour with me to go over all of the options and answer all of my questions - then being told I would get back to them - they not only refused to take their standard payment for the call, they wouldn't even take the money for their half price coupon that I had printed out from Angies List!
After speaking with my wife, we both decided the cheap old system was not worth repairing (it had many issues during its life span and it was very hard to find parts or service for the brand we had). We decided on a professional quality GE system with an advanced KDF water filtering system added and called Dan back. They had offered a very reasonable all inclusive price for each option they presented and I did some online research to find out what the equipment cost, so I knew they were offering a very reasonable price.
They came out at the appointed time and did a great job of installing the system which has done everything we wanted it to do. Here is where the exceeding expectations part comes in. During our discussions Dan noticed the old softener was on a side of the house that had no water faucet (thanks to an odd decision by the home builder). Even with the water softener we had to wash our cars with the untreated hard water from the faucet on opposite side of the house next to our driveway. Of course, that left spots all over the car that had to be rubbed out every time. Dan never said anything about it, but when he knocked on our door to tell us they were done with the new system, he said, "Come out here, I want to show you something."
So when we went out to look at the system Dan shows us that he had installed not one - but two new water faucets as part of the new water softening/filtering system. One for treated soft water (for the car) and another for untreated water that could be used to water plants and the lawn. I was stunned, especially since he didn't charge an extra penny to do it the extra work and buy the extra parts! Truly amazing in this day and age.
We hooked up hoses to each of the new faucets - one with an extra long hose to reach the cars with soft water (no more spots!) and one for watering flowers, etc on that side of the house. We couldn't be happier with the value for the money we spent, or the exceptional job Dan and Tim did. I could not recommend them more highly and it is great to know they are just a call away if our system ever needs service.
These guys don't drive around in an expensive fleet van and are not a franchisee of some bigger operation. They are just hard working local guys who have earned their stellar reputations by making sure their customers are happy. They are the kinds of service providers we try to seek out and we feel extremely luck when we find them. Thanks Dan and Tim for a job well done!

"Company review for local business-- This time: Ants short-circuited well pump switch & needed replacement (Last time a long while back: We moved in to house and needed a pump installed to existing well.) RESULTS: Both times, Billy Clark (and sometimes his crew, as needed) were fast, knowledgeable, honest, and-- to prove that last part-- reasonably priced. Both times their installation (Last time) and replacement (This time) worked just fine. Last time, power company had power surges due to bad grounding which caused unequal loading issues, and paid for replacement, but Billy and crew made good at very reasonable rates, and both service calls (Both for the new well hookup and this recent call) were fast, effective, courteous, and reasonably priced: AND-- MOST-IMPORTANTLY-- worked just fine (other than the power surge-- which was NOT well company's fault). I know enough about wells and electrical & mechanical things to know that they treated us fairly. Yeah, I'm glad to write a review for good techs. Would use again and recommend.

"Had issue with septic system, toilet not flushing and water backing up into downstairs shower. Called TPB on Monday they scheduled appointment for the next day. The pleasant technicians, Bill and Leo, called and arrived promptly. Pumped the tank (last clean out was 1.5 years earlier); mostly water. Bill, knowledgable and professional explained that the drain field was probably failing. The handle on the tank lid broke off and there was a chunk of concrete missing on the lip of the tank which allowed for sand/dirt and surface water to enter the tank as well. Bill recommended and installed a riser lid, sealing the broken tank lip and allowing easier access to tank. Very efficient and fair price. New drain field will be needed soon."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Dover, FL

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.
