"I forgot to do this review but am glad I did because I am two years out having waterproofing services by this company. The drain and sump pump recommended by Robert Ellis is absolutely worth it. I no longer am anxious about weather forecasts because of the work done. Robert evaluated my home, gave me options and soft recommendations then allowed me space to make the best long term decision. Completely satisfied and would recommend."

"We had a SUMP PUMP installed outside a basement door to stop water from coming in door. There were a few â  rockyâ  moments with the 1st installer (& the dispatcher) but the owner of this company.. Pete Westera... stands behind his work 100%. & fixed everything with a second installer to exceed our expectations."

"I'm not fully moved into the home yet, but I will update when I am there permanently. The crew was very professional, worked diligently, cleaned up after every day of work (three day job--french drain expansion, two additional sump pumps installed, window drains into the sump pumps, pretty extensive job)."

"Mr. Lawal came to the house same day after I discovered the leaking exterior faucet. The repair was not an emergency since there was a dedicated shutoff valve, and so we agreed he would come back to the house in a few days on Saturday AM to do the work. Mr. Lawal showed up as promised on time and was able to fix the faucet without damaging any interior or exterior walls, which I appreciated."

"Derrick was delayed but kept us updated on his arrival. Once on site he was professional and friendly. He got the job done very quickly and nearly, cleaned the area and disposed of the damaged fixture. We were thrilled with the work he did and the reasonableness of the cost. It was great to work with a small family owned business. I spoke with Derrick’s wife to schedule the appointment and I appreciated working directly with the technician instead of a franchised outfit. I will definitely keep Wallace plumbing in my Rolodex and share the number with friends or family in the area who may need similar services! Great job!"

"Woke to realize that our sump pump failed during the night and water was quickly accumulating from the ongoing rain. Rema was the first to respond to my HomeAdvisor message. He was at our house with all of the required pieces and parts within the hour and had the sump pump replaced and most of the water drained within another hour. He was quick, courteous, professional and the cost for the repairs very reasonable. He was also helpful in making recommendations on restoration support needed. I highly recommend Rema."

"They called right away, showed up on time, diagnosed the issue, installed the new sump pump, explained everything, cleaned up, and did it all in a timely manner. What more to ask? Well done."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Hanover, MD

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.
