Kitchen sink had been draining slowly for months. He cleared it, then showed me the grease he pulled out and explained why it kept coming back. No upsell, no drama, and the price was what I was quoted on the phone.

Sump Pump Repair & Installation in Hampton, Iowa
Spring thaw and summer storms are when we hear from Hampton basements. Most failures are boring and preventable - a float switch jammed against the side of the pit, a discharge line that froze shut over winter, a missing check valve letting water run back down, or a pump that has simply worn out at year eight.
Call (833) 435-9778 and describe what is happening. We will give you an arrival window before you hang up and a flat price before anyone starts work - the same price at 2am as at 2pm.

Water pressure worth checking
A lot of Hampton homes run higher static pressure than they should, and high pressure quietly shortens the life of every valve, supply line and water heater in the house. It is a cheap thing to measure and an inexpensive thing to correct with a pressure reducing valve.

Called about a gas smell near the water heater. They told me to get out of the house first and call the utility, then came and found it. Took it seriously, which I appreciated.

Third plumber we called about a main line that kept backing up. First two just cabled it and left. These guys ran a camera, showed me the cracked joint on the screen, and lined it. Two years and no problems since.

Sump Pump Repair in Hampton: common questions
How long does a sump pump last?
Seven to ten years is typical, less if it cycles heavily. If your Hampton pump is past seven and you have not tested it, pour a bucket of water into the pit and watch what happens before storm season rather than during it.
Do I need a battery backup sump pump?
If your basement is finished, or if losing it would ruin things you care about, yes. Storms take the power out at exactly the moment the pump is needed most, and that is when unbacked pumps flood Hampton basements.
Why is my sump pump running all the time?
Either the water table genuinely is that high, the float is stuck on, or the check valve has failed and the same water keeps draining back into the pit. The third one is common and cheap to fix.
Can you install a sump pump where there is not one now?
Yes, though it means cutting the basement floor for a pit. We look at where the water is coming in first, because sometimes a grading or gutter fix solves a Hampton wet basement for far less money.
Do you charge extra for nights and weekends in Hampton?
No. A call at 2am on a Sunday costs the same as the same job at 2pm on a Wednesday. No overtime rate, no holiday surcharge, no emergency premium.
