"John response was excellent. He was here with a new water heater so quickly. He drained, disconnected, and installed all before dinner. Cleaned up his mess. I would call him again for any plumbing needs."

"We hired FPS based on reviews from Angie's List and I can tell you it was the best thing we did. We had other quotes from plumber's in the area, but no one came close to the price of FPS. John, the owner, was punctual and extremely professional while installing our faucet and p-trap in our new vanity. The craftsmanship is of utmost importance to him and takes pride in the work he performs. He quoted me 225.00 for the work plus parts but ended only charging me the 225.00 which was really fair for the high quality of work he did and even adjusted my toilet float valve free of charge after noticing it was only filling up half way. If your looking for a more than reasonable plumber, look no further."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in North Lauderdale, FL

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.
