"Positively excellent experience. The people at Mike the Plumber exhibited the highest level of professionalism, knowledge, and attention to detail. Nicole explained my options over the phone, after making sure I didn't have an emergency, was very responsive and timely scheduled my work. The plumber who did my work (Doug) explained everything he was doing and actually saved me money by not having to replace one of my toilet bowls... AND he left my place cleaner than when he got here! I would not hesitate to use them in the future or recommend them."

"Our plumber, Lazaro Rios, has to be one of the best plumbers around.  He has served our building
for about 5 years, one of many two story buildings in our complex.  1A Florida Plumbing is his company and it is Lazaro who is on the site and doing the job along with someone from his team.
Being on the board of our building and having lived here a long time, I have seen many plumbers come and
go.  We don't see Lazaro much, but that is because he doesn't have to return multiple times for the same problem.
Lazaro is easy to reach and he and his men are always very helpful.  Their equipment is modern and I must say my scarred laundry room wall doesn't miss "snaking" and the loud noise accompanying that antiquated process.
To clear the drainage pipes in our building Lazaro inserts a long multi-directional high power hose into the stacks on the roof of our two story building to flush out grease and debris. 
This tool also has prongs which open as the hose is pulled out, gathering grease and debris as it is removed also. 
I like this procedure because they do not have to enter any of the apartments to address building clogs.
1A Florida Plumbing is a company one can count on.   They know their business, are completely capable, and communicate the problem well so that one knows just what they are going to do.
They speak both English and Spanish, and are an honest company serving both Dade and Broward Counties.

"I would like to express my most sincere gratitude to this company for the excellent work they performed in replacing the bathroom in my home. From the very first moment, they proved themselves to be highly responsible, punctual, and professional. The quality of their work exceeded my expectations; they paid attention to every detail, and the final result turned out beautifully. Their dedication and commitment to what they do are truly evident. Without a doubt, I recommend them 100%. It is difficult to find people who are this reliable and committed nowadays. Thank you so much for doing such an impeccable job. If you like, my dear, I can personalize this with the name of the company or the person who did the work for you, to make it even more special."

"Our kitchen drain had been draining extremely slow. We had tried several home remedies with no success. Equal Rooter was very responsive. Kevin ,the owner, returned our call quickly and appointment was set for the next day. The morning of our appointment Andrew (Technician) called to ask if it was convenient for him to come out earlier, which was fine. Andrew determined the problem to be down in the branch line from the Kitchen, and resolved the issue with the use of a snake and camera. Within 2 hours we were up and draining again. Andrew was very professional and courteous. We will use Equal Rooter again and will recommend them to our friends and neighbors. A great team!"

"Steve and his team were amazing. I cannot recommend them enough. From the initial evaluation, Steve was honest about my system. He quickly identified those portions of the system that were functioning and not functioning. Steve and the team check the functioning aspects of the system to ensure they were functioning, would last and not require replacement. I NEVER felt like I was being up-sold or taken advantage. I cannot recommend Steve and the team at Filtration Direct enough for any issue you maybe having with your water. His team is honest, respectable and very professional. Not to mention the work they did was top notch. Thank You"

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