Customers say: Quality work

"I have been using Done-Rite Contracting for more than 7 years now. They have doing various jobs for me from small ones like mounting a tv or ceiling fan to large ones such as a new gazebo install and a complete bath gut tub to shower renovation. The quality of their work and attention to detail is what sets them apart from other contractors. They include you in all aspects of the project insuring that you completely satisfied when they are finished. The Dans, as I call them, are very respectful of you and your home and take extreme care during the construction project to contain the mess and clean up daily. Many people are concerned at who they allow in their home, but these men are very trustworthy and professional and have such pleasant personalities that you will look forward to the next project and want them return."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Staten Island, NY

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.
