Our pedestal sump pump is unreliable, so we are replacing it with a submersible.
Is this something that can be done easily by people with limited plumbing skills, or should we get a pro in to save us the headache?
Coming off the high of successfully replacing the toilets, it was easily done. You don't need specialty skills or tools to do this and of course YT has several uploads, some of which are informative. The hardest part really was the plastic premade builder's pit was distorted eggshaped by just the tiniest amount in the poured floor, making it an absolute bastard to open and reclose the lid. Much thumping and pounding with a deadblow hammer was required, even had to lubricate it with veggie oil, hope that doesn't come back to haunt me somehow.
