"While he was here, he tried very hard to sell me other services, grilling me about our sump pump, etc., which felt invasive.  After he left, I went outside to inspect the new faucet, only to discover irregular blobs of adhesive oozing all around it. So noticeable, you can still see the mess of it from our deck! Perhaps if he hadn't been so busy trying to sell me other services, he might've done the job properly!"

"Marcus was absolutely great.  He was one of the only companies that could handle doing all the projects we needed, and to do it in a very high quality manor.  He was prompt when we called, worked hard to squeeze us into his schedule on a rush job needed before we moved in.  His price was not the lowest, but the quality of the work was exceptional.  The exterior paint and door look amazing and I'll discuss the interior work below.
They had to paint an entire 3700 sf house.  They did all the exterior work and interior painting in 2 weeks!  That's it!  Not only that, but it was done with primarily 2 people (Marcus included).  They worked hard and fast; took no lunch at times, and the quality was far superior to many other painters work I've seen.  For the little bit more we paid to go with him, it was worth every cent.  
Marcus was honest and hard working and to make matters better they were on time and got the job done before their estimated time.  Long story short, you get what you pay for and the pride that Marcus takes in his work makes all the difference in the end result."

"Technicians came on time, very efficient and immediately diagnosed the problem, that the drain pump was not working right, and replaced it in no time. Tested our washer and it fixed the problem."

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

"Having worked with Josh for the first time on a painting project in our new home, about a month ago... I decided to give him a shot at quoting and ultimately winning the bid for our fence. He had already proved his trustworthy ethics and willingness to keep customers satisfied. He was willing to start by digging the holes on a Saturday (never heard of a contractor working on the weekend), so that he could get out ahead of the impeding rain for the week. He made sure the holes were dig right with a two man auger and spared no expense on the concrete to set the posts (since we will be in the home for years to come).
Although the job did take a couple days longer than expected, this was in no way shape or form Josh's fault, as we had torrential downpours for two days and he had the decency to ask if it was ok not to work in the rain since not only was it dangerous, all of the trampling would ruin my grass.
He promised me that the job would be completed by Friday, and even pulled an extra person off of another job of his to make sure the man power was there to get the job done and done right.
The fence turned out absolutely great, and I couldn't be happier! The only problem is.. I cant seem to find enough work around the house to keep having him help! As stated in a review last month, Josh represents the new generation of contractors, one with honestly, loyalty, great prices and quality craftsmanship... a true asset."

"Kirt gave us an estimate that was much more reasonable than another we had gotten so we decided to have him do the work.  We are very glad that we did!  He and Shawn were great to work with and the subcontractors that he chose were very good also.  The new front stoop was completed first and that is beautiful.  Kirt and Shawn tore out the closet and built a new header wall in a few hours which really opened up our interior space.  The front door and one of the windows presented some unexpected challenges but they were able to find solutions easily.  Building the roof over the front door was more complicated of course, and that took about a week to complete, but they kept us in the loop the entire time - telling us what they were doing and why they were doing it and asking our opinion every step of the way. They pay a lot of attention to detail. It turned out great!  We love our "new" house and we would definitely use Kirt Johnson Construction again."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Lee-center, IL

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.
