“The Drain Surgeon”
The importance of a working sump pump system for the spring weather is to transport the water to the storm system. Your bubblers need to be unplugged and drain tiles need to be open and flowing. Please go down to your sump pump pit on a rainy day and check to ensure it is working properly. This will save large expenses later like wall cracks and foundation repairs.
Hydro jetting is an innovative way to ensure you have the cleanest pipes possible, mitigating the chance of clogs and back-ups. Hydro jetting is accomplished through blasting water at a very high psi, through your pipes to remove debris from the walls of your pipe. There is a head on the hydro jetter which pushes the water in multiple directions to ensure it is cleaning the entire surface area of your pipes.
Here at Day & Night Plumbing Co, LLC we take a “Dig a little deeper” approach. No, not literally digging up your yard for sewer repair, but taking a look from the inside out to see what is causing your issues. We can send a camera into the drain system and nail down what exactly is causing issues in your plumbing system. There are a variety of circumstances when a full inspection is beneficial. For instance if your are installing a new tub or sink. If you need to locate the exact layout of your pipes, the camera will do the trick. Or, in the event that you have a plumbing issue present but are not sure of the scope of the project. Large scale jobs are not always diagnosed as such at first. They may appear to be less severe than they are and evolve into more complex issues as the plumber begins the work. The video will allow you to properly diagnose the problem from the get go and take away that element of surprise. While it will not necessarily make the solution any easier, it makes budgeting for the project more manageable. Rest assure that with Day & Night, you will have a licensed plumber on the job to accurately diagnose your plumbing issues, and remedy and situation you find yourself in.

Day & Night Plumbing installs a local Manufacturer’s “Liberty Pumps”. A basic install is $330.00 plus $20 if a new check valve is needed. People who had sump pumps replaced in 2013 said that they paid an average of $442.53 with a general range of $490.43 to $538.34.
The average cost to install a sump pump is $1,212. Most homeowners spend between $968 and $1,466 to have a sump pump installed.
A plumber will charge $441 to replace a 1/3 hp submersible sump pump, which includes labor and material; but you can buy one and make the swap for $190, the cost of the sump pump replacement, and save 58 percent.
An average sump pump (pedestal or submersible) for a typical home runs about $100-$300 depending on the horsepower, materials (plastic is less expensive than cast iron or stainless steel), flow rate and the height the water needs to be lifted to discharge it. A sump pump with a built-in backup pump can be $300-$500, and heavy-duty solid-brass sump pumps start around $250-$350, but can go as high as $600-$1,200 for extremely rugged models with a half to a full horse power. Average total costs for a do-it-yourself installation of basin, pump, gravel and cement can run $150-$350.
Labor to replace an existing sump pump with a similar new model runs around $50-$150 or more. An average installation of a sump basin and pump (not including drains) runs about $250-$600 for parts and labor, depending on the quality of the equipment, ease of access and local rates. One homeowner[1] had a plumber install a middle-of-the-line sump pump and basin for $305.
A separate battery- or water-powered backup emergency sump pump is $150-$350 or more, depending on horsepower, flow rate, materials and other features. A backup pump operates during a power outage or if the primary sump pump fails. (Water-powered pumps use municipal water pressure.)
A professionally installed system with a basin, pump and drains in a typical home runs about $2,000-$6,000 for labor and parts, although it can go as high as $10,000-$15,000 for extensive drainage with more than one sump pump.
To add drainage into the sump basin without having to jackhammer through the basement floor, baseboard-style drains can be installed along the inside of the basement walls. Do-it-yourself kits are roughly $10-$13 a foot, or $1,000-$1,300 for 100 feet for a 20×30-foot basement. Professional installation bumps the total cost to $2,000-$2,600 for 100 feet.
A Small Investment, Save a lot of Headaches!Regular sewer cleaning is very important. Roots and household waste can build up and plug your sewer. Once the roots infiltrate they are incredibly difficult to remove. Digging up and replacement is the only option after the roots get into the sewer. Day & Night plumbing can put you on a maintenance schedule to avoid these expensive and unnecessary problems.
