"Post sales follow up by my salesperson is non existent. I needed some information regarding tax credits as promised as I was completing my tax return. I called the office requesting that my sales person give me a call back. I only had a couple questions. Then I left a message on his contact number. I did not receive any call. So much for being a "Diamond Club" member."

Hercules Plumbing Service LLC is owned and operated by Richard Kline. For more than a decade he has worked as a plumber in the employ of other Tucson plumbing and contracting companies. After being laid off, Richard decided to put his tools and skills to work and go into business for himself. He is in the process of getting his residential and commercial certifications. Therefore, Hercules Plumbing Service LLC currently operates under ARS Chapter 10, Section 32-1151. We are limited to projects in which the total cost does not exceed $1000. We will update our profile when that restriction is lifted. We do not use subcontractors and all work is performed by Richard himself. Visit our website for more details on pricing and services, but the minimum charge for a service call is one hour of labor ($45). If you live in Tucson itself, there is no additional travel charge. If you live in the surrounding communities (Marana, Vail, Sauhaurita, etc) then there may be a small additional travel charge (please see our website for a map).

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Tucson, AZ

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.
