Customers say: Super punctual

"The plumbing technicians came out as promised to assess the leak. They were both very courteous and kind and assessed the damage. I am giving three stars because they estimated the cost to be almost 250% higher than what the actual cost was to fix the issue. I am sure there are customers out there that would just accept any bid however, please get multiple beds for these projects, especially when working with this company as they will inflate the cost to take advantage of the situation. I ended up only paying for the $79 estimate."

"We've been working with Mike Counsil for over 8 years - clogged drains, water heater, new toilets, and most recently a sewer re-pipe. Yes, they may be more expensive than other companies, but with Mike Counsil you get what you pay for - quality work. A big shout out to Rudy and the whole team - they are hardworking, reliable and courteous."

"We recently had our where heater installed, and the whole process went smoothly from start to finish. The technician arrived on time,was perfessional, and explained everything clearly before starting the work. The installation was done effectively, with attention to dental, and everything was left clean. Our new water heater is working perfectly, and we couldn't be happier with the service we received. Definitely would use them again. "

"They recommended a good solution for the occasional shallow flooding in the garage (installing a sump pump) They started soon after we submitted the request and they did a good job. Most importantly, the pump kept the garage dry through our seemingly endless rains this winter. There are 2 reasons I rate the job with 4 stars rather than 5. (1) The job did not pass the city’s inspection and a critical connection had to be reconfigured (after which it passed) and (2) there was some weirdness around payment on the last day of the actual work (before the inspection) in which the crew seemed unwilling to leave without a check and then were slowly driving around the neighborhood afterwards. When I brought this up with my contact at the company, he denied that the van was theirs (which it definitely was) and didn’t really explain or defuse the bad feeling this created. But … they did a good job and in this day and age that’s really important and can’t be taken for granted. I recommend this company with the suggestion that paperwork, permitting, terms of payment etc should be clearly settled in advance."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in San Leandro, CA

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.
