"PERFECT! Best & most reliable plumbers ever! I had built 2 add-ons and gutted a home to resale and the plumbers that I had hired were horrible. They did more damage than good. I had called 8 plumbers before I found the best one "Heaton Plumbing." Out of the other 7 plumbers - 2 stood me up, 2 came out and looked at the job and then never sent me an estimate or returned my calls, 1 was going to charge me by the hour because they were not sure how to fix everything (no good), and the other 2 priced the job so high it was obvious they did not want it. I was beside myself thinking that I was never going to get the items fixed and then I met Mike Heaton. He was on time, professional and he seemed like he knew what he was doing. When I received the quote I was pleasantly surprised (being that the other quotes were much more). He scheduled the job quickly and finished it quickly. He made it look so easy. I would highly recommend this company for any of your plumbing needs. Do not do what I did and hire the wrong plumbers - it cost me $1,000's and months of unnecessary stress. I will be using Heaton Plumbing for all of my future plumbing needs."

"Paul, the owner, was exceptionally kind, patient, and welcoming—even toward someone like me, a frail elderly customer. He and his assistant, Crag, installed a 50-gallon Bradford White RG250T6N water heater with great care and professionalism. Their work was clean, efficient, and thoughtfully executed. They took the time to answer all my questions without hesitation. I was truly impressed and will gladly add them to my trusted list of family “pipe doctors.”"

"I had some settling issues with my foundation, and Jacob from FSS did a thorough evaluation of the problem. I had already had six different companies come by, so I was getting familiar with the routine. What impressed me about the FSS solution was that they could actually stabilize the foundation, putting it on piers that would not shift in the future, unlike the other companies. When the installation crew arrived (Thomas, Timothy and Kennen), they brought along some really impressive galvanized steel hardware. The installation crew was clean and very meticulous about the details, making sure everything was installed correctly. After the foundation was stabilized and leveled, another crew came to do a polyfoam injection under the foundation to fill the air gap left by leveling the foundation. This way the entire foundation is supported, and not resting just on the edges. Overall, I was very pleased with the work. They were certainly not the cheapest, but then, you often get what you pay for."

"I had 50 feet of natural gas line installed from my gas meter to a location near my patio. I specified a very specific location for the gas riser near the patio and Vossler nailed it perfectly! John and Donald were the technicians and they were professional as well as personable. I highly recommend Vossler for any gas line or plumbing projects."

"Wedgeworth was very professional. Their tech was very nice and explained everything. Wore booties over his shoes and laid down a catch blanket and paper towels to avoid a mess. All equipment came in with booties as well. Left with the drain clear and did multiple tests to verify as well as informing me of their warranty in case a problem arose. Checked on multiple other things I was curious about and provided a quote where appropriate. Also informed me of things I could do myself that didn't require a professional. Very pleased with their service."

"They are very responsive. Day 1, they came and checked our plumber system and use a snake unclogged our drain. However, the drain was blocked again that night. I gave them a call and they promised to come back 7:00am next day, which they did. They ran the snake further and got some root tissue out of it. The drain problem went away."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Alief, TX

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.
