"Workers called to let me know what time they would arrive and they did. Surveyed the work area and worked diligently for 4 - 5 hours. They explained what was done and the work looked professional. They cleaned up any large debris and loaded on their truck. Very satisfied with the work. Let’s hope it corrected the problem."

"Kudos to Joe F. with Benjamin Franklin for completing a major drain line rerouting that more than likely has been the source of long standing issues. He explained each step in the process for the intial estimate and during the work and provided thoughtful analysis for future projects I'm considering. After the work was completed one of my water lines begin to leak and I had both lines replaced during the same visit. I really appreciate the quality workmanship and respect for my home Joe showed and will include Benjamin Franklin in estimates for future projects. "

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Parkesburg, PA

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.
