"It went well. The plumber was on time, kept his word, had to come back - showed up as promised; not inexpensive but we were expecting it to be more based on an earlier assessment by a different plumber."

"Great job. Anthony did a complete review of the house and the current venting and recommended the proper size for the AC. The installers and electricians came 3 days later, did additional wiring and piping and installed the entire system in 5 hours."

Hydro jet uses water at 4,000psi to clean the inside of the mainline drain which connects all the home's drains to the city's sewer system.
Using a snake we can go through the cleanouts on the side of the house.
With the cleanouts snaked, and the blockage located, we can send the hydro jet through the sewer vent and flush out the blocked drain.

"About two weeks ago we noticed a small amount of water below the water heater and immediately knew we needed to have it checked out. We called out a company to check it out who informed us we had an internal leak and would need it replaced.  At this point I went to Angie's list to find local plumbing companies and after looking at several models and brands of water heaters we knew we wanted to go with a Bradford white, the same brand we had.  I then researched companies that offered this brand and found Top Notch Plumbing.  After speaking with Gordon on the phone and explaining what the issue was he quoted us over the phone. I then read reviews on his company before moving forward.  I called him back a couple days later to make an appointment. He was able to get us in the next morning.  His appointment was at 9AM and he was on time!!  He replaced the earthquake straps and a gas line that ran to the water heater.  He didn't have to replace them, but was honest and knew they needed to be replaced.  I was very impressed with Gordon, he completed the install about 2 hours after he arrived and went over everything before he left.  Within 20 mins of him leaving we had hot water, hotter water than we ever did before!  Thank you so much Gordon of Top Notch Pluming! If we need a plumber in the future we will call you!

"Excellent - We wanted to change our AC/Gas furnace system to a heat pump system and decided to use Tarpy. They provided a very comprehensive review of our needs, and spent additional time with me on the phone to help me choose the best and the most cost effective system for installation. Chris and David arrived on time and were very efficient with removal of the old system and installation of the new. They also corrected a couple of errors due to the previous installation (correcting bad welding on the Freon line, and installing a correct condensate discharge). Chris and David clean up the work area and answered any of my questions before they left. The system has been working great. Thanks Chris and David, and Tarpy!"

"Almost immediate scheduling (next day) and professional and courteous installation. My only disappointment was that the technician who arrived did not know I had purchased the Angie's List voucher which resulted in some confusion re: payment. However, Top Service Plumbing acted professionally to rectify it. What I appreciated was that Top Service Plumbing answered my calls each time I contacted them, even on a Friday evening and weekend."

""One Water" employees are professional and courteous. System was installed in a few hours. It's been 2 weeks since we got the unit installed and we are happy with the quality of water that we are now able to get from every faucet in the house."

"After we returned home from our summer vacation out of town, we found that our master bath and bedroom had flooded due to rain and clogged plumbing. When I called the chief executor of Hometown Restoration, he replied quickly, provided a reasonable quotation, and started work straight away. We were delighted with the accuracy of the treatment of water, as well as the quickness through which his workers restored our master suite after insulation removal, flood cutting, and so on. Our home looked nicer than the original! Staff were professional, kind, and meticulous in their clean-up. I would refer Hometown Restoration to others!"

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in San-luis-rey, 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.
