"I found Ralph on Angie's list and contracted him for a clogged drain. I was pleased that he responded quickly and he took care of 2 clogged shower drains. The following week, my hot water heater broke and Ralph called back five minutes after I sent him a text. He replaced it with a superior model (which cost only a little more than the cheap model that I had and he explained the features which made it superior. I later found a YouTube video which confirmed everything that he said). The warranty was better also. He came back the following day to replace two toilets which had been causing leaks in my kitchen ceiling. I'm very happy with my new water efficient toilets which flush with more force than the previous ones, and, no more leaks! While Ralph was replacing my water heater, he noted problems with the installation of my 35 year old boiler and pointed out issues that a more modern and energy efficient boiler would address. There was no hard sell, just a matter of fact recommendation that I might consider replacing it before next winter. I've been hiring contractors for the past 22 years, and I'm impressed by Ralph's knowledge, experience and professionalism. If you call for service, you will get Ralph himself, not a random plumber that a larger company will send. I've already booked Ralph again for my broken sump pump!"

"They were great to work with and came in with a competitive price. They were clean and efficient. Had 125 feet of French drains installed through our basement with 2 sump pumps done in one day. Came back a few days later to complete what was needed outside the house."

"HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! We just had a French drain installed along with a new sump pump and pit in our basement and had the floors epoxyed afterwards. The project manager, Kenny, was absolutely amazing. From the very beginning he explained everything that their team would be doing, gave me updates throughout the day. If I had a question or concern Kenny was patient with me and continued to make sure any questions/concerns were addressed, even telling me to call him if I thought of any other questions. Their crew was very respectful of the property by making sure to lay out tarps to protect the floors, and made all attempts to manage the noise since we were home. Whatever was left in the basement they made sure to cover and protect. And if something needed to be moved they moved it and moved it back. When it came time to lay down the epoxy there was a scheduling hiccup. Kenny though went out of his way to make it right by coming right after another job and staying late to make sure we're stayed on schedule since I was having out of town guests coming that weekend and needed access to the basement. Working with Select Basement, but especially Kenny, made this one of the best experiences and I highly recommend them. 10 out of 10!"

"We have worked with Quality First Basement for 20 years. First job was the triple sump pump which has been excellent. Next was the refinishing of our basement. Another superb product and experience. Today we had new flooring installed. Once again, the product and workers were excellent! They were on time and so respectful. The floor is so attractive. This is a company that has only gotten better over the years! I highly recommend it! Rachel Padian"

"The sinks are draining well. The stopper is fixed. The toilet was unclogged, but got clogged again the next day. Had to pour Ajax, and let it sit overnight to unclog the toilet again. That is the reason I have given a B, rather than an A"

"It went very well. I have used a lot of plumbers in my life and this is the first one first I have ever had who cleaned up after himself. He was wiping things down with cleaner and put a tarp down on the floor. He also installed a clean up plug on one of my lines."

I’ve been working in plumbing and Drain Cleaning for over 7 years, currently serving the greater Hudson Valley Area of NY, Northern NJ and Pike County PA. I take real pride in doing things the right way, not the easy way. Whether it’s a simple fix or a full system overhaul, I treat every job like it’s my own home. My goal is straightforward, show up on time, do clean work, and leave you with zero headaches.

"Sam was our project manager for our back porch and side walkway project. He gave us the best price to lay down concrete for this project. Sam convinced us to go with the Cambridge pavers instead for a very small markup from doing it initially with all concrete. Sam showed us pictures of their work on his ipad and we were amazed at the quality. We had concrete masonry work done by another contractor previously for our front steps and the back steps but we weren't happy with their quality of work or the lack of skilled workers. They were basically day laborers. The Progressive Renovation workers were definitely skilled and experienced in masonry and paving work. I can't say enough about this company. They were excellent and my wife and I would strongly recommend them as the best we ever came across for masonry and paving work. Our project actually consisted of 2 projects. The first project for our back porch and side walkway of the house. We were blown away as it looked incredibly better and sleeker. Then Sam suggested as a second project to re-do the front steps of the house and the front walkway and to extend the back porch. We weren't even thinking of that but we were so happy with their work on the first project and at the price he offered that we went ahead with it. Even though we didn't have the budget for the second project, we went ahead with it as Sam suggested we can charge half of it on our credit card and pay the rest by check when the job is complete. You won't regret doing business with this company."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Woodcliff Lake, NJ

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.
