"This is a really nice business! It was Friday late afternoon and I needed a new faucet installed on my kitchen sink. I figured I would have to wait till Monday. This really nice man told me he would have someone here in about forty minutes. My faucet could not be fixed and the repairman went and got me a faucet and installed it for me. This is a great company with excellent service. Thanks so much!"

This is the second time we needed Advanced Plumbing Services to help us.

This time we had a drain blockage on the second floor bathroom that resulted in the toilet drain blocking, and the shower water to essentially flood out from under the toilet.

John came immediately to address the problem, cleaned the blockage, and got the drains flowing again.

"Highly recommended. After my initial call, they were at my house early the next day to fix my slow draining toilet. Nelson checked things out, explained to me the problem and corrected same. BTW, I had been calling other plumbers for weeks with NO RETURNED calls. No so with Johnson. They answered the phone and as I said came out right away. Professional, service oriented, and caring. They are my go-to plumbers and should be yours as well."

"I contacted Mr. Franklin for what I thought was regular maintenance. I had never had the septic pumped before and was unsure where the tank was located as there were no visible indication of the piping. Mr. Franklin poked around but could not locate the piping so he contacted the County Health Department and obtained a copy of the blue print outlining the location of the septic tank. Turns out the line was inactive and the tank did not need to be pumped. After all the trouble Mr. Franklin went through between the drive out here, the hour he spent poking around trying to find the septic tank and waiting for the county to call back, he refused to accept any money from me. He would not even accept a trip charge. In a world were honesty just doesn't seem to exist anymore, it is so good to know that there are still trustworthy businesses out there! Mr. Franklin's knowledge of what to look for toppled with the time he took just to educate me is just priceless! I wish all businesses was like Franklin Septic!"

The technician was on time, very polite, and very concerned with cleaning up any mess that he had to make. He was quick and pleasant. He replaced my old plastic drain with a better quality metal one and it works great!


The only problem I had with this company was that they took too long to answer my call and set up an appointment. They said they were on a huge busy job at the time. All in all, I would use them again.

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Macon, GA

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.
