Christmas Miracle: Sewer Pump Rescue

When our team at Olson Specialty Services received a call just days before Christmas, we knew we were in for quite a challenge. Kristen Downs reached out to us with an urgent plumbing emergency—her sewer pump had broken, causing a distressing sewage backup in not only her basement bathroom but also her utility room. It was indeed a "sh%& show," and we immediately recognized the importance of timely action.

Before: The Chaos of Sewage Backup

Kristen explained that the sewer pump had been functioning for 37 years, but this failure left her facing a mess just as the holiday season was about to commence. Understandably, she was overwhelmed and knew she needed a team that could respond quickly and efficiently. Having had a positive experience with our team during her prior home repairs, she didn't hesitate to call us again.

The Transformation: Quick Response and Expertise

Upon receiving the call, we swiftly assembled our team—Brian, Rich, and Chuck—who promptly arrived at Kristen's home. Upon inspection, the crew efficiently diagnosed the broken sewer pump and found a comparable Zoeller sewer pump fitting for her home.

• Emergency Response: Arriving the same day, our team worked meticulously to ensure a rapid resolution.
• Expert Installation: Despite the challenging removal of the cast iron top of the old pump, our experienced technicians managed to replace it with the new model, re-piping and sealing everything temporarily before her holiday guests arrived.

Kristen could then clean up the initial mess and breathe a sigh of relief, knowing that our team had set everything right for her in her time of distress. Plus, we promised to return after the holidays to finalize the installation with a new reinforced lid, ensuring everything would be secure and functional.

After: A Happy Customer and a Job Well Done

Sure enough, we kept our promise, returning on January 2nd to complete the job. This time, we not only sealed up the sewer lid but also helped by installing a new toilet that Kristen had purchased—an additional service we were more than happy to provide, no questions asked!

"Two weeks later, I received a very fair bill. I 100% recommend Olson Plumbing. They are responsive, thorough and provide service at a reasonable price. Thank you Brian, Rich, and Chuck for answering all of our questions and concerns in a timely manner! It's hard to know who to trust these days.
