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.

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
Excellent service! Fast and well done! Hugo is very friendly and thoughtful. He’s takes the time to explain everything and make sure we have no unanswered questions.

These guys are awesome. After a horrible experience with SW Plumbing that don’t seem to know anything about tankless heaters except to quote replacements without troubleshooting, I called Gene Johnson. They got out that day. Derek Solberg the technician, obviously knew his craft and was able to quickly diagnose and explain the issue. As it turns out the unit did need replacing, and Derek was able to confirm why. He then replaced it on the spot in a few hours for $2-$4k less than the quotes I got from two different SW ‘technicians’ over the previous two days. This is the customer experience, we should be able to expect. I wouldn’t call anyone else.

Professional, Helpful, and Friendly Service! I greatly appreciate the service we received from Jaren who helped solve our plumbing/sewer line backup issues. After diagnosing the problem, he explained the various options available and was both friendly and informative. I’ve been very satisfied with my experience using Gene Johnson Plumbing and would highly recommend them.
Emma Vetter
We asked for someone to come out to get us a water heater replacement quote. They came same day, examined the water heater, and identified that it only needed a part replacement, not the entire unit, saving us literally thousands. The heater was fixed same day, and Branson Carr, our technician was informative, professional, courteous, and a trooper abour cats bugging him while he worked on the estimate.

Mark Ochoa was extremely friendly, helpful and professional. He cleared our kitchen drain in a timely manner. I highly recommend Mark.

I experienced a minor Saturday night emergency when one of my bathroom faucets began leaking—so I turned off its shut-off valve. A bit later I discovered the shut-off valve was leaking rather dramatically, soaking a rug and almost reaching my hardwood den floor. I cleaned up the soggy mess in my vanity cabinet and placed a bucket under the leaking valve, while turning off my house water supply. I was unable to use water Sunday, but as I shopped for a new faucet set I called Gene Johnson Plumbing’s emergency number.
My call to Gene Johnson Plumbing was professionally answered and I conveniently scheduled my repair appointment for Monday, allowing me a day to procure the faucet set. I am very particular about thee aesthetics of fittings, so even though this was unexpected, I wanted to select a set that I really liked.
Monday I received a call as promised from the company’s experienced plumber Steven Fritz, letting me know he was on his way. The company had messaged me a photo of Steven along with his credentials, which I appreciated. After meeting him, I was very impressed by Steven’s professionalism and clear explanations of his approach to the work.
My old sink valves were soon replaced with new shut-offs, and my lovely new faucet set was efficiently installed. Overall a great experience, allowing me to enjoy some lemonade out of a lemon of a plumbing problem!
Kay Buccola
Mike was amazing. He came out on THANKSGIVING DAY!! He had to thread his way through 20+ guests to service our much-needed but malfunctioning dishwasher. He was so gracious about the holiday complications. He saved our day!
