"Chris was very thorough and went above and beyond which is why we chose Crawl Space Jam for our project. We needed full crawl space encapsulation with a dehumidifier due to moisture and mold issues. Other companies recommended installing perimeter drainage and a sump pump in addition to encapsulation. Chris did the extra work to uncover an existing perimeter drain in our crawl space and he even tested it to ensure it was draining properly. I recommend Crawl Space Jam without hesitation."

"Installed sump pump. Didn’t press for the more expensive, expansive project. I appreciated that. I also loved that they communicated and set times and dates and confirmed. So far so good. We will see if problem is resolved."

"We have a one-year home warranty (we purchased our house within the past year) and when we had plumbing issues one Sunday afternoon (water started flowing out of the toilet and onto the floor) our warranty company contracted with Triangle Plumbing and Backflow to come address the issue. Even though it was one a Sunday, Eric showed up within a few hours and immediately go to work resolving the issue. Unlike some of the negative reviews below (once I knew what company was coming I researched them and started to get worried) Eric was very clear about the issues and potential costs. He let us know that if he could fix it outside the house, it would be covered by our warranty but that if he had to remove a toilet to access the blockage, the warranty would not cover it and he broke down the costs for us. Despite my wife nor I knowing where the access point was closest to the house, Eric got out a shovel and estimated where it would be and started digging under some shrubbery to find the access point. As it was already past 8:00 on a Sunday night and the temperature was just over freezing, he could have said he'd come back another day or immediately moved to the more expensive approach from reaching the plumbing inside the house. Eric clearly knew what he was doing because he found the access point within minutes (it had been buried about 8" by the previous owner) and promptly resolved the issue, explaining how it happened and helping us avoid it in the future. We found Eric to be prompt, courteous, and willing to go the extra mile/step to help us. While we had never used this company before (or known them) we will be using them in the future.
Unrelated to this, while talking to Eric we learned of a flat-fee plumbing inspection they complete to help with preventive issues in your home (I think Angie's List has a coupon for it). I wish we had known about that prior to purchasing our home as we could have utilized them during the home inspection and saved us several hundred dollars in plumbing repairs that the inspector did not catch. Based upon Eric's professionalism and experience, for anyone purchasing a home, I would recommend they use this service as part of their inspection process - I know I wish we had (it would not have caught the issue we had but it would have caught several others that we had once we started living in the home).

"Doggone Dry did a wonderful job waterproofing my basement and installing a sump pump. Josh explained everything that needed to be done and exceeded those expectations when completing the job. They were very professional and got the job done in a timely manner. They also took the time to make sure my basement looked better and cleaner than it was before they came. I am very pleased with their services."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in King, NC

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.
