"Bob Bedford and the great guys from Bedford Builders worked on my Dad’s house this past winter. Bob was very quick to respond to our initial request for him to view my Dad’s house and provide him with a quote. He was extremely patient when walking his home with us, as we discussed options and ideas. He took great notes, and provided my Dad with a detailed quote quickly. I was hoping for a rather specific timeframe, as I was about to have another baby, and it would have been easier to remodel without any of his grandkids in the house. He was very understanding and was able to start the job exactly when we needed. Bob and his team were so very organized and professional from day one, and this carried on throughout the entire project. The kitchen and bathrooms had not been fully remodeled in over 50 years, so it was more than a typical renovation. The kitchen and two bathrooms had to be completely gutted and rebuilt. The kitchen remodel involved relocating the refrigerator and taking a piece of a wall away, installing recessed lighting, crown molding, reworking sink and oven locations, adding a dishwasher and widening the entrance to the kitchen. They also took their time and did an amazing job with the very detailed floor tile pattern. All new cabinets and hardware were installed, and Quartz countertops and a stone backsplash were also installed to perfection. Both the master bath and guest bath were also completely gutted to the studs. Both bathroom remodels required reworking of the existing footprint by removing a closet to open up the bathroom more, and expanding a bit into the existing wall to create a larger master shower. Both bathrooms had exceptional custom tile work in the showers, counter work and cabinets. They also completed beautiful woodwork were needed on the first floor and master bath. Bob was extremely patient throughout the process, and always made sure to explain all of the steps along the way. If an issue arose, he explained it thoroughly and provided an option for a resolution. I absolutely cannot say enough about the QUALITY of the work that was provided by Bob and his team. They are the epitome of professionalism and caring about the quality of their work. We would absolutely recommend Bob Bedford and Bedford Builders to anyone for any size project or remodel."

Yes, if you have plumbing fixtures below the main sewer line, such as in a basement bathroom or laundry room, you need a sewage ejector pump. Since gravity cannot move wastewater upward, an ejector pump is essential to push waste into the main sewer line and prevent overflows.
"When selecting a pump, make sure it is suited to your needs," says Botelho. "There are smaller models that are meant for washing machines and larger units that can handle waste for multiple bathrooms—ultimately, you don't want to install a system only to find that the pump is undersized."
A sewage ejector pump operates by detecting rising wastewater levels in a pit or basin. When the wastewater reaches a predetermined level, a float switch activates the pump, which then propels the sewage and waste solids up to the main sewer line. This process prevents sewage accumulation and potential backups in your home.
Regular maintenance is essential for the efficient operation of a sewage ejector pump. Schedule an annual inspection with a qualified plumber to clean the pump, check seals and controls, and ensure the motor is functioning properly. Additionally, avoid flushing inappropriate items, such as wipes or sanitary products, to extend the pump's lifespan and prevent costly repairs.
