Frequently Asked Questions
Does Your Home Take on Water?
There’s no disputing that the Seattle area gets its share of rain, but if you live in the Seattle area and your home has poor natural drainage, you’re looking at a situation where your basement floods several times per year. This is where a sump pump proves invaluable, because it will pump the water away from the property so you don’t have to worry about water damage. Sump pumps are also effective for relieving hydrostatic pressure that can build up behind the walls of your home’s foundation.
What Are the Different Types of Pump?
Knowing what the different types of pumps exist can help you choose the right one for your basement, and can help you get the right repairs when it gives you trouble. There are two types that are widely used today: pedestal pumps and submersible pumps.
- Pedestal pumps sits on top of a basin. They are air-cooled, so they require sufficient airflow to keep them from overheating, making them less than ideal for smaller basements.
- Submersible pumps, as the name implies, sit inside the sump pit and function off of a quieter, water-proof motor.
Regardless of the type of pump you have installed in your basement, it’s always a good idea to have a battery backup for it in case you experience a power outage during a severe storm. Having backup power will ensure that the pump is able to effectively do its job when you need it most.
How to Tell If Your Sump Pump Needs Repairs
The pump has to be in good working order to provide the kind of results you need, because rain can come in quickly resulting in a broken pump, you’ll be faced with a basement full of water. If the pump loses power due to a burnt out motor or damaged electrical components, then you need to call for repairs. If the pump has been used heavily and is bogged down by leaves and other debris, call to have it cleaned before it ends up breaking down on you.

Don’t Try It Alone
You may want to fix your sump pump quickly and get it back into action, but if you aren’t experienced in handling repairs, then you’ll probably do more harm than good with your DIY approach. Considering the important job you expect the pump to do on your property, trusting the job to anyone but an experienced professional is not a wise choice.
Your sump pump can be the difference between a clean, dry basement and costly cleanup or dangerous mold growth.

Mark Ochoa was exceptional, showed up early and helped me in a bind. Would recommend without hesitation. Good to know who you can count on when needed
Peter Morawski
We’ve been with Gene Johnson for years, going back before the mergers. The service continues to be top notch. We recently signed up for the yearly membership and feel we are getting our money’s worth. Just got our first full plumbing inspection and are very glad to have the peace of mind to know what does or doesn’t need attention. The expertise of the staff is excellent, with a special shout out to today’s technician, Mark Ochoa, who was both knowledgeable and pleasant. Thank you kindly!
BJ Erkan from Bothell Integrated Health LLC
I am so used to people trying to upsell me that I was pleasantly surprised when Derek, our technician, gave exceptional service with zero upsell. So greatly appreciated. The seeds of future business have been planted, as when my next plumbing need arises, I will be calling Gene Johnson and asking for Derek.
Bruce Hobert
They provided prompt service to hook up new utility sink lines to my copper pipes. Andrew was professional and communicated well before, during and after the service. I would defuse them again!
Tim Lucas
Mark Ochoa did a fantastic job unclogging a stubborn blockage behind a washer. The plumbing made it hard to get to the problem, but he kept working on it until the issue was addressed. Nice to have that taken care of.

I had a great experience with Gene Johnson when I needed plumbing work done. My technician, Jeff Freeman, was professional, polite, and extremely knowledgeable — I really appreciated the quality of his work and how friendly and professional he was.
I also liked receiving a heads-up text and phone call with the estimated arrival time. The dispatch team was polite and professional as well, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free.
I will highly recommend this company!

We have a 14 yr old water heater I needed service. Taras (technician) was knowledgeable helpful and offered good advice on potential issues ahead.
Karen Epstein
Really appreciate the knowledge and expertise provided by Jaron. He was quick to diagnose the problem, efficient at unclogging the main line and a pleasure to work with. I have a good working knowledge of plumbing and I found Jaron to be honest and not looking to just drain my wallet.
Suzie Jaberg
Same day service, super friendly, super fast. Will definitely hire them again.
Eleanor Petrowitz
Rene was extremely professional, knowledgeable and perseverent. He unclogged my kitchen drain that was not easy. He kept at it, with many ideas and tries. Finally he got it. He did not give up. He was also very personable. I highly recommend him. He also found my leak that I had been trying to find for a month! It’s fixed, too.
Marta H Reed
They worked quickly efficiently and cleaned everything up and beyond.

Three days before Thanksgiving our kitchen sink drain line gave out. After installation of new cleanout and camera work by a super nice crew ( I think Daniel and George) a few days prior Gabriel, Eugine and Allan worked tirelessly into the evening removing concrete slab to expose deteriorated drain line, installing new ABS drain line, bedding, backfilling and placing new concrete. They kept the room with work clean. Placed protection over wood and vinyl flooring and plastic and plywood in garage for old concrete and gravel. Once finished with the installation they cleaned everything up and you could not even tell they had been hauling gravel, dirt and mixing new cement to patch the concrete floor. Everyone involved at GJP was great to work with.

Matthew Hilliard
I needed a water heater replaced and Darius from Gene Johnson offered the best pricing and customer service out of all the companies I got quotes from. He was very professional and courteous, efficient with the work and fun to chat with. Oh and he wore boot covers, which was nice because I had just vacuumed. No one from the other companies who gave me quotes wore the covers. I wholeheartedly recommend him for any plumbing work you have!
Kristine Castleman
