"From the moment I contacted Johns Plumbing I knew I was in the right place. The Contractor Adam is amazing, his explanation of the job and his willingness to work with me made me feel at ease. The ladies at the office Rose and Erika were right, he made me feel so good; even after the estimate. And when we finally got to the part of doing the work; Darren the pluming specialist was amazing!! Fast, polite, clean and neat! I Darren explained each step as he progressed and kept me informed throughout. Amazing,.. this company is # ONE !! Thank you .. John’s Plumbing !! D . Sierra"

"Olman is a true professional: - he returns your calls - he shows up when he promises - he knows what he's doing - when he's working he cleans up - his pricing is reasonable It was a true pleasure to find an experienced professional in this field!! I'd recommend him to anyone and hire him again. Our unit was broken, he sorted out what was wrong, serviced the machine and fixed it. He could have bilked us for a new machine, but only did what was needed."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Tamarac, FL

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.
