"Jose installed a new kitchen faucet for us, after ours fell apart. He came out on a Saturday afternoon, then made 2 or 3 subsequent trips when things didn’t fit our space. He was professional, very friendly, and very fairly priced!"

"Brock had 2 differnt teams work at our house and they were both excellent....... very polite and professional. They actually showed up early on all days they painted. There attention to detail was great. They took all neccassry precautions prior to each room they painted making sure all furniture and fixtures were coverd or removed in advance. After each visit they cleaned up behind themselves and quite honestly other than a few paint fumes you probably would not have known they were there! They finished the project earlier than promissed even though it was during the Thanksgiving holidays. Payment was made only after the project was finished and inspected by Brock and myself. They did very high quality work and we will definetly use them again in the future.

"When the flood waters went down 5 ton system on the main part of the home would not start up. Contacted the firm and informed them my home had been flooded and I needed an ac running to help in drying the home. Since they have been doing my service and installation work for years they knew the equipment in the home and brought what would be a like replacement. We had not even discussed price, as they have always been better than the market for like equipment when I have checked.
The next morning three trucks show up at my home and the new system was installed. The install was smooth, wiring done very neat and out of the way. The crew even cleaned all areas they worked in, making it cleaner than before, even though the house was a wreck from the flood.
The unit worked well. By the next morning the floors were dry and the smell of stagnant swamp was gone.
This firm is A+

"Jared Pourciau is tenacious and skilled. He came out on a Sunday before Labor Day and worked thru the rain and heat to try and resolve my clogged drain. Ultimately, due to it being Sunday and not being able to rent the needed equipment, he was unable to remove the clog. Jared did the absolute best he could with the equipment on-hand. Going above and beyond, he re-configured the drain under my kitchen sink and properly connected my garbage disposal as it had been done incorrectly when fist installed. I would definitely recommend his services to anyone in need of an all around handy-man."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Ethel, LA

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.
