"Byran and his crew arrived promptly and gave us estimates for various plumbing jobs that we needed including a floor drain upgrade for furnace condensation drainage. Several options were offered for clearing our drains and the most expensive ones were avoided by reaming through some tricky sewer traps. Although they needed all day for the floor drain, they left the area neat and clean.

"I noticed there was water in the cabinet under my kitchen sink.  I turned on the kitchen faucet and noted the U drain was dripping water.  I placed a pot under the drip with a towel under the pot.  I then did a search on Angie's list to find a plumber.  The first name that came up was Charlies Plumbing - Heating and Sewerage Service.  I noted on the map that he had done work in my area. Since it was late in the day, I waited until morning to call.  Charlie answered his phone after just a few rings.  I told him my problem and where I lived.  He stated he was at a job and would call me later.  He called a few hours later and stated he could stop by and check out the problem.  True to his word, he rang the bell and Charlie and a co worker diagnosed the problem quickly - the pipe was cracked and needed to be replaced.  He had the part that needed replacement and completed the job.  I would definitely call Charlies Plumbing again and recommend his plumbing services.

"Repair guy was nice and did good work. Was not told ahead of time that I would need to pay 408 dollars for essentially hooking up a wet vac to the end of a pipe and turning it on for thirty seconds Expected to pay $200 Actual payment was $493 Line codes from the invoice S-Service Call $85.00 S-Blow Out Condensate Drain $408.00 DESCRIPTION OF WORK / RECOMMENDATIONS from vendor Condensate pvc drain clogged with sludge & slime. Cleared condensate drain with nitrogen & vacuum. Unit draining properly after repair. 0ppm co reading. No gas leaks found. Customer recently had a cc completed. All ok at departure. Recommendation is that if you need this service performed is to get a quote in writing from the vendor ahead of time or just get a shop vac and do it yourself. Will not recommend although would like to hear vendor response as to how this poor customer experience could work better. (UPDATE): The Vendor has reached out to try and mitigate the cost and is much appreciated."

"My tenants called late on a Friday afternoon to say that when either of them flushed or ran water it would back up into both of their basements (duplex). I went there after work with some plumbing equipment that was totally inadequate. On the way I specifically looked for a billboard I had previously seen in Lake Station for Young's to get their phone number. The billboard only had their website (same as listed here) but from that I got their toll free number. I specifically looked for this billboard because I had dealt with Young's a couple of times years ago and had been very satisfied with their service - once for a major job and once for a minor one. After that, however, they had gone out of business. Recently I had noticed this billboard and hoped it was for the same company, resurrected. It was.
When I got to the duplex I tried to clear the blockage myself with a snake. I wasn't even able to get to it with my snake and soon figured it was somewhere after the 2 lines joined. I called Young's and the phone was immediately answered by a friendly, courteous, and efficient woman. She listened to the problem, explained their pricing policy, and promised a 30 minute response on this Friday night. 30 minutes later Shawn pulled up in a large, well-equipped truck. He quickly assessed the situation, knew just what to do, and gave me an estimate. He was very knowledgeable and explained not only what needed to be done now, but also explained the flaws in our system, how to correct them, and a price for doing the correction.
He brought in some major heavy-duty equipment, draped the area to protect it as best as possible, and went to work cleaning the drain. He took all appropriate safety precautions, was very thorough and professional, but friendly at the same time. When he finished he cleaned the area.
I'm glad Young's is back in service and my tenants were delighted to be able to use their bathrooms again.

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Park Forest, IL

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.
