Experience You Can Trust

Five blue stars are lined up in a row on a white background.

In honor of Women's History Month Frank's put on an evening plumbing class for women which I attended with a friend. Abby, Mike and Frank were incredibly welcoming and generous with their time for this free event. Mike and Frank traded off during the presentation and their passion for their work was obvious. They let us ask as many questions as we wanted and provided thorough explanations of common household plumbing issues. Always make sure your sump pump is plugged in before you call a professional!

I especially appreciated that they were very clear that they would not be making any sales during or after the class. If you want to set up an appointment you have to call the next day. There was no pressure to buy anything, it was truly just a free service to better the community and that is hard to find these days.

"The whole team was so very helpful and made me feel comfortable..."

Was visiting family and a drain clogged up. I had to leave next day out of state and Franks plumbing (Kyle) came by. Kyle was so friendly, went above and beyond. Have had plumbers play tricks before and not with Frank's. Will be using them for life. The whole team was so very helpful and made me feel comfortable that I could trust them to work with my family member who was at the house.

"They were excellent and I will never go with any other company!"

Al and Dante were amazing! Very polite and professional. Al explained everything to both me and my husband so we could actually understand what is going on. Al said the sump pump looks good other than the roots that are growing inside. He told us exactly how to fix that problem. He was able to get the hot water tank lit again, but did honestly say it will most likely need to be replaced. Thank you for your great service!

"Both of these gentlemen had pure compassion for me as a customer."

I wanted to share my gratitude to Mike Russo (manager) for taking a lot of effort to keep me happy and take care of my sump pump issue quickly and for sending out one of his best techs (Seth) who was fantastic! Both of these gentlemen had pure compassion for me as a customer. A lot of places just want to fix it, get paid and leave. People who take the time to listen to the customer and talk/explain/etc. are what matters to us homeowners.

"...Diligent in explaining and showing what was going on...."

Tanis was prompt, professional, courteous, and solved our problem well. He was particularly diligent in explaining and showing what was going on and left the work area super clean. Great work!

"So beyond thankful for Mike, Abby, and Frank for their hospitality today during their class!"

I cannot begin to describe the amount of information they provided to us all... and the truly best part…the community they are building. I truly cannot wait to go to more classes in the future. Because of this class I know without a doubt who I will be calling for any plumbing needs moving forward. Thank you, Mike, Abby, and Frank!”

Your sump pump works hard to keep your basement dry—but what happens when the power goes out during a storm? That’s when a battery backup becomes essential. It keeps your sump pump running when you need it most, giving you peace of mind and added protection against flooding.


At Frank’s Mr. Plumber, we install reliable, high-quality battery backups that kick in automatically when the power fails. It’s a smart, affordable upgrade that could save you thousands in water damage repairs.

Sump Pump Repair FAQs

  • How do I know if my sump pump needs repair?

    Common signs include strange noises, frequent cycling, constant running, or water not being pumped out properly. If you notice any of these issues, it’s time to call in a professional.

  • Can I fix my sump pump myself?

    While minor issues like checking for clogs can be DIY, most sump pump repairs require a trained technician. Improper repairs can lead to flooding or damage to your home’s foundation.

  • How long does a sump pump repair take?

    Most repairs can be completed in just a few hours, depending on the issue. Our team at Frank’s Mr. Plumber arrives promptly, diagnoses the problem, and gets to work quickly to restore your system.

  • Will I need to replace my sump pump instead of repairing it?

    Not always! We assess the condition of your unit and recommend the most cost-effective solution. If repairs will get it working like new, we’ll fix it. If replacement is the smarter option, we’ll walk you through it.

Keep Water Flowing Away from Your Home—Even After It’s Pumped

A reliable sump pump removes water from your basement, but where that water goes next is just as important. That’s where a bubbler system comes in.



At Frank’s Mr. Plumber, we can install a bubbler system that connects to your sump pump discharge line and channels water safely away from your foundation. This helps prevent over saturation, erosion, and other drainage issues around your home.
