"They had to come in and install a sump pump. The project was very messy but the workers were very nice and friendly. They worked very hard to stay on schedule. My basement turned out perfect and now when it rains my basement stays dry. Very professional and get the job done in a timely manner."

"We had a humidifier installed. They installed it quickly and professionally. The installer Jimmy was very helpful and even gave me a couple pointers in regards to installing a wifi thermostat. I've always had great experiences with Kath/Aquarius home services and will definitely use them again."

"We had multiple small drain problems that had accumulated over the years and added up to an increasingly large problem. The technician showed us how he figured it out and what he recommended be done about the problems. He presented the cost up front and we agreed to have the work done. About the only thing that didn't go perfectly was that he needed an extra half hour above his estimate to finish the work. We were not charged for the time."

"The only complaint I have is that they did not have a drain cap for my boiler. A part they should have had. The technician told me I could find a drain cap at any hardware store.. I went to a hardware store and screwed the part on myself.."

"Very quick booking and response time. Walked us through our gas lines and was very helpful. Seemed pricey for what we got (gas valve installed behind oven) but we were in a time crunch and they were kind."

"It went well. I could have had less work done and saved money but I wanted the kitchen drain system updated so it would drain properly. This should avoid future problems. I called the plumber and was not interested in differing estimates. Randy's was prompt and explained the need to update the drain system to avoid future problems and I agreed. If and when we update plumbing in other parts of the house I  would consider this company for the work."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Forest Lake, MN

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.
