At Roy's, we understand how stressful it is to lose plumbing, electrical, or heating and cooling comfort. And while we can't always prevent that stress from happening when those breakdowns first occur, we can give you a great experience that takes that stress away fast. Creating a worry-free service experience takes teamwork, resources, and skill. It also takes dedication from every technician, plumber, and customer service representative we have, all working with the same purpose: to make your repair or install as easy as possible, as quickly as possible. But it goes beyond good service. We're dedicated to giving back to our community, as well. Every month, our Roy's Cares program makes a $500 donation to a local charity, and each time a technician places a lawn sign at the end of a job well done, we donate $5 to another monthly charity recipient. It's just one way we dedicate ourselves to our city and the people in it, both in our business and beyond!

"Rep (Tyler) arrived on time. Was very personable and professional. Evaluated and completed repair quickly and without issue. I’m very happy with the results. (Note…Angi categorized project as a broken pipe when actual issue was wit an on demand water heater.)"

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Buffalo, 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.
