"We had the foundation repaired around our house and the basement repaired due to our drainage problems. This was 17 years ago and we have had no problems since that time. Also, Everdry furnishes a sump pump to us free of charge and we always have an extra sump pump in case the electric power goes off. I would suggest to every new home owner who builds a new house to have Everdry do the waterproofing of the foundation and drainage outside the house. They are wonderful!"

"Michael Brooks and his associate came on time for a schedule basement inspection. They were very thorough and explained their findings and advice. They also explained financing options. We decided on the AquaStop Basement Triple Sump Pump fitted to the existing drain tile. With a deposit on the day of inspection, we were also able to finance the remainder of the cost, which helps us get through tax time. On the day of the install, Jacob called as promised to advise us of their estimated arrival time. The crew, Jacob, Dustin, Cesar, and Jaden, were efficient and responsive to questions. They explained all they had done and how each control worked. And best of all, they left the basement super clean after the work was done. Well done, guys, and well done FSM. Thanks for the peace of mind."

"Bryan provided the estimate and was prompt in responding to my phone call and setting up an appointment. He was on time and pleasant to work with. He was very interested in what was in our best interest long term as homeowners and what we were looking for out of our house, not what he was able to sell us (very low pressure sales). He explained the theory and science behind the potential solutions available to us and what the prices would be, and we settled on installing a back-up battery for our sump-pump and drain tile around the entire basement. Bryan explained what it would look like afterward (a portion of drywall had to be cut up everywhere there was drain tile installed), and I'm thankful for that - it managed my expectations of what to expect afterwards. A 50% downpayment was made. A couple days later the office called and scheduled the appointment. They set it for a couple weeks out on a Thursday/Friday (two day job). I got a call the week before saying they were ahead of schedule and could do it on Monday/Tuesday if I was available. I was not, so they kept it on the Thursday/Friday. I spoke with the lady in the office as well as Bryan as to what to expect day of and they were very helpful in explaining the process and when the team would arrive. Thursday morning I got a call about 8:45 from Shane, the foreman, saying they were preparing to leave the shop and would be at the house in 20-30 minutes. They arrived, and while foreman Shane and I walked around and reviewed the job, Andy and Dre started setting up the mats and plastic to protect my floors and other property that would be directly affected by any debris. We ran into an issue of how to divert around the water heater and furnace, and Shane called Bryan and was able to find a perfect solution quickly and didn't delay the project. Day 1 was excavation day, so I did not stay at the house. Shane called me at about 3:00pm letting me know they were done for the day and that they had cleaned up and would lock up the house (as we had agreed that morning). He reviewed the day's work and briefed me on what the next day would entail. There was a considerable amount of dust on my main floor, but I have a feeling it was about 1% of what could have actually been there had they not sealed off the basement when excavating. They did a great job of keeping the space tidy and moved all of my furniture back at the end of the day. While bringing concrete up to take outside, someone did slip and knick a piece of furniture. Shane was very up front about it and solved the issue right away with providing some wood stain (I was very impressed by the level of communication and the "above-and-beyond" mentality). Day two - putting down drain and pouring concrete. Shane called again when he was leaving the shop to notify me of when he'd arrive (crew was Shane, Andy, Dre, and George). He arrived on time, briefed us of what the plans were for the day, and got to work. I got home about noon and the crew got done about 3:30pm, so I was around the house while they finished work. They were very nice and friendly, I felt very comfortable having them around. They worked very hard to get the job done (especially hauling wet concrete down those stairs!) Shane did a great job communicating the progress when I got home at noon and throughout the day. When the job was finished and cleaned up, Shane walked me through the area, showing me the finished product and any maintenance or knowledge I would need to know as a homeowner (and making sure I felt comfortable with it). He then went over the lifetime warranty with me again, asked me if I had any questions, and I made final payment. I am extremely happy with the work that Bryan, Shane, and the team have done and would highly recommend them. They go above and beyond to make sure homeowners are safe and secure (and dry!) in their own homes."

"It went very well. While examining the under sink cabinet, there was a leak in the disposal, Ryan replaced it with a new one. He did a great job by attaching a wood plank under the sink cabinet, it looks good and hardy. Also he found out that there was an additional leak from a pipe in the basement closet. He went and bought all the hardware and did an excellent job in fixing the pipe leak, fixed the drywall, resurfaced and repainted the ceiling of the basement closet and in the process explained everything very well. We are very happy with his services and will definitely hire him for our future home projects."

"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."

"Well, the first time the replacement was ordered it was the wrong one, which of course, delayed the installation a week. When it was finally installed I had to pay an additional $850 for code upgrades. This I was not informed of by Home Shield. Then we noticed that there was water on the garage floor and found that the pipe coming in from the wall was leaking at the wall so had to call the plumbing company back out to fix it. They first tried to say it was not their fault but since there wasn't a leak before they installed they did fix it. I have used Home Shield a few times before and never had a problem. Some of the companies they use are not the best so you have to research them before you commit. I have found HS service to be good if you do your homework. At the end of the day I was without hot water for almost 3 weeks but it was do to the plumbing company they sent out."

"Rob was the only person/company to respond/follow up to my phone call.  He came by the next day and gave me an estimate for the job of hanging and finishing drywall on the ceiling and walls of my basement. He gave me the options of either having his crew come in and hang the drywall or just himself helping me hang it.   I opted for the latter which would allow me to learn a little and save money.  I was traveling so I had Rob start the job several weeks later.  When I ordered the drywall, the local supplier quoted an additional hefty fee to get the drywall from my driveway to my basement.  Rob suggested that if I didn't mind some hard work, we could move the drywall to the basement together for a much lower price.  Again, I took him up on his suggestion.  When the drywall was delivered, I called Rob and he was over in 15 minutes.  We moved the drywall to the basement in an hour (hard work for me, mind you), and I saved $120!  As mentioned, I was doing some traveling at the time, so Rob worked with my schedule.  The two of us hung the drywall in 10 hours, and Rob taped/mudded/sanded the drywall over another 6 trips/days, again working with my schedule where needed.  He also helped me return unused drywall to the supplier, using his van, where I got a refund (which I applied to finishing supplies).  Eventually, I let Rob have a key to the house and he worked some while I was absent.  Rob is a real work horse.  While being courteous to me and my family, he would arrive and set to work, "not coming up for air" until he accomplished what he intended.  He obviously came prepared as he did not once break to get some material/tool he needed or had forgotten.  Rob used a sander with a built in vacuum, so the dust level was minimized.   My walls are finished so that I need but run a cloth over them and paint.  He gave me some helpful suggestions as to painting which I will try.  His original quote was one day to hang the drywall and four days to finish it, coming to a total of 40 hours.  I paid Rob at the end of each week, and eventually it totaled to EXACTLY 40 hours.  I was very satisfied with the job and would recommend Rob Seth to other people looking for work to be done."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Richland, MI

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.
