Our sump pump & battery backup system failed last night at 1000pm After bailing water to prevent water damage to our basement for a 1/2 hour my spouse was able to find a 24/7 service company that will send an after hours technician to our residence
I was surprised that companies that advertise 24/7 service when called will only schedule the service call for the next day
PHD Plumbing took our after hours call and sent a technician within the hour Brandon arrived on site & replaced our sump pump I can not thank him enough for his excellent service & professional installation Not to mention the fact that if Brandon didn't show up last night our basement would have been flooded leaving us with a much bigger issue and associated cost
Lastly, I would say that I was pleasantly surprised with the fair pricing for the work completed I would highly recommend PHD Plumbing for anyone needing future plumbing service or installation

Extremely happy with my first experience with PHD. Brandon came to my house the same day I called, within two hours! Service was quick, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I felt respectfully spoken to and included in the discussion on steps to be taken to solve the problem. Brandon definitely takes pride in his job as well as customer service.
I will absolutely use their services again.

Good job and service. A bit expensive for such an easy job but the service man was very good. I never got an invoice for this job.

Brandon from PHD Plumbing visited our home to address sump pump/pit concerns. Quality of his support was exceptional! He arrived on time as scheduled. He took the time to listen to my concerns and thoroughly inspected the areas inside and outside the house. Upon diagnosing the issues he offered the solution(s) best suited to our needs. Upon fixing the issues, the system was tested. Finally cleanup was so good, you would never know he there there. Would highly recommend Brandon and PHD plumbing to everyone.

Called PhD plumbing to investigate a leak in my basement. Very happy with service provided. Nino was fantastic; very polite, professional and friendly! I had recently dealt with another plumbing company to install bathroom faucets and was 100 times more satisfied with this companies professionalism and pricing! Will always deal with PhD plumbing moving forward
Sump pump not working โ what’s usually wrong, and how we fix it
Float switch stuck or failed
The most common cause. The float can jam against the pit wall or simply wear out. We free it or replace it on the spot.
Pump burned out
A pump that hums but doesn’t move water usually has a seized impeller or a dead motor. We carry replacements on the truck.
Check valve or discharge line
If water runs back into the pit or the line is frozen or clogged, the pump runs but never catches up. We clear it and add freeze protection.
What happens when you call
1
Call 705-627-5725 โ a real person answers, day or night. Tell us what the pump is doing (or not doing).
2
Free diagnosis โ a licensed technician arrives in a stocked truck, tests the pump, float, check valve and discharge line, and shows you the cause.
3
You approve the price first โ then we fix or replace it, usually on the spot. Financing available if you need it.

Common questions
The pump is humming but no water is moving โ what does that mean?
Usually a seized impeller or a jammed float. Turn it off at the breaker if it’s hot, and call us โ running a seized pump burns the motor out.
Can you come tonight?
Yes. Sump pump emergencies are handled 24/7 with a real person answering the phone.
Do you carry pumps on the truck?
Yes. Primary pumps, floats, check valves and battery backups, so most jobs are finished in one visit.
What does the $45 service call cover?
The trip and the diagnosis on weekdays. Evenings, nights and weekends are slightly higher. You approve the price before any work.
