"Anthony, Adam A, Thomas, Patrick and Shawn are an exception team. Extremely professional and very hard workers. Anthony kept us informed of the the teams progress and they stayed very late one night trying to get the basement completed in a timely manner before the next rain. The basement has now been professionally waterproofed complete with two sump pumps and a large dehumidifier and now I will not have to shutter each time I hear the word rain. AFS is definitely a company I will hire again and will recommend."

"Tim was very friendly and explained everything in detail and gave me several options to fix my problem with my toilets. Once we made the decision on the pest plan of action, Tim explained the installation, price and gave me a time frame as to when the job would be complete. Robby did the install of all the toilets. He was fast, clean and very friendly."

"Called to tell me he was on his way and arrived on time. I had gotten the wrong service lines and he went to HD and got correct ones. He checked the water pressure and drain lines. Removed old faucets and all trash. Perfect job and very reasonable. Very highly recommended. I will use him for any other plumbing job that I have. Glad to have someone that I can call on."

"I can't say enough good things about this company or their plumber, Jeremy Phelps. I had three major plumbing issues during the months of November & December. (Two were emergencies, one occurring just before Thanksgiving & the other just before Christmas -- terrible timing.) However, Jeremy (& later, his associate, Ben Jackson) too care of them immediately, & did an excellent job. Highest recommendation."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Joelton, TN

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.
