"Joe,James and Bobby did an excellent job replacing the sump pump And drains. My husband and I were so impressed with their abilities and how hard working they were. I would highly recommend Ground works Manchester to anyone who needs the same work done. Thanks to all the gentlemen for their professionalism and work ethic"

"The technician/plumber didn't get the job done at all. He ended up breaking the shower valve and ended up placing a stopper on the line to prevent water leakage. In the process, he ended up taking 5-6 hours for a job that was finished by another plumbing company in 2-3 hours. It was a waste of my money as Village Home Services billed me $560, fixed nothing and broke the valve. Furthermore, their manager/owner asked me for another $2000 for them to come back and repair the damage they created. I got this job done for $800 from another plumbing company based out of Tyngsboro. I DO NOT RECOMMEND VILLAGE SERVICES. "

"All I needed was a replacement for a broken, rusted toilet flange that was set in cast iron. The technician was very professional, and the quality of the work was excellent—I could never have done it myself. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 only because of the cost ($650). To be fair, I didn’t get any other estimates, but it did seem a bit expensive for a job that took only one hour."

"Great, as always. Sila is outstanding. We have a service contract with them for our furnace and AC and they keep them in tip-top shape. And when we have an urgent or emergency situation (heating, cooling, plumbing, electrical), they're who we call."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Kingston, NH

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.
