"I want to recognize three young men who recently completed our basement work through Groundworks: Matt, Taylore, & Gavin. The work was thorough, clearly explained, & the finished product looks excellent. But the biggest positive was the crew. They worked incredibly hard every day on a physically demanding, messy job, yet remained professional, disciplined, & respectful. They took great care of our home, kept debris contained, & cleaned up afterward. Matt took time to explain the full system to us & went above & beyond to help replace insulation that had fallen, even though it wasn't part of the job. Taylore & Gavin were equally helpful, helping us salvage & store shelving materials and remove a few stubborn pieces we couldn't manage ourselves. I'm genuinely impressed by their work ethic, attitude, & pride in doing the job right. I would absolutely recommend Groundworks, but especially these three young men. They represented the company exceptionally well!"

"I used MA Design & Construction for my kitchen remodel. Raquel and Marc were very helpful in going through the options from painting the existing cabinets through to full replacement. We started with more modest changes but after debate ended with essentially their initial recommendation. The workers throughout the project were professional and I never felt uneasy with them being around the family. As the project progressed there were recommendations that Marc or Raquel would make which led to a better outcome. Marc would also pick out imperfections in the work and insure they were addressed which was appreciated. We're very pleased with the outcome and would not hesitate to work with them again."

"I thought I had a simple problem. As it turned out, I had a pump seizure, a broken line in the lawn and multiple leaks in the pump area. It also was a decent day in February to fix them all. He did it and seemed confident that I was ready for the spring activity."

"Our story begins almost a year ago with the Certificate of Occupancy on our new home. We were moving in from across the country ... from California to South Carolina. Upon seeing the finished product for the first time, the framing and the interior of the house was absolutely wonderful, reflecting all the expert craftsmanship expected on a custom build. The exterior painting, walkways, driveway, porch and patio looked like they were done by the worst of the tract home trade. The incessant spills and splatters were due to the lightning speed of work which is the hallmark of lack or prep and general carelessness of application. The general contractor tried to help as he could, explaining that subcontractor "must have an A and B team". The term "B team" was quite an understatement and a shock. Some things were fixed; others were beyond repair, would require starting over which we were not willing to pay for. Enter the Southern Shores Handyman (JR Grimm). He completed dozen or so small tasks remaining from the builder's punch list, some of which had to wait until now for the pressure-treated lumber to age (i.e. that kind of wood does not take dark colors until 6 to 8 months after installation). JR had the patience to stay with the effort and overcome any unforeseen obstacles to get the results that he sought. He cleaned up the subcontractor's messes and then some ... left the porch and inside of the garage in better shape than we thought possible. Exit JR, leaving behind another very satisfied customer."

"We had Austin H., Victor, and Junior install two piers to stabilize a foundation crack in our home. They arrived on time, discussed what was going to be done and finished up when they said they would. Very knowledgeable crew. A very good job overall."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Shallotte, NC

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.
