Sump Pump Installation Services

A properly installed sump pump is the first line of defense against basement flooding. Our experts will assess your home’s unique needs and recommend the best sump pump solution to keep water out of your basement or crawl space.

Our Sump Pump Installation Services Include:

New Sump Pump Installation

If you’re building a new home, dealing with frequent water issues, or need to replace an old or failing pump, we provide professional sump pump installation. We offer both submersible and pedestal sump pumps, and our team will help you choose the best system for your home’s size, water table level, and specific requirements.

• Submersible Sump Pumps: Installed below the water level in the sump pit, these pumps are highly effective for homes that experience frequent or heavy water accumulation.
• Pedestal Sump Pumps: Installed above the sump pit, these pumps are ideal for smaller spaces and are easier to maintain and service.

Battery Backup Installation

Sump pumps rely on electricity to function, which can be a problem during storms and power outages. We can install battery backup systems that ensure your sump pump continues working even when the power goes out, giving you peace of mind during severe weather.

Sump Pump Repair Services

A malfunctioning sump pump can lead to significant water damage in your home. If your sump pump isn’t working properly, our team offers sump pump repair services to get it back in working order quickly.

Common Sump Pump Issues We Repair:

• Motor Failures: If the motor isn’t running, we’ll troubleshoot and repair any electrical or mechanical issues to restore function.
• Float Switch Problems: A stuck or faulty float switch can prevent the sump pump from turning on or off, leading to flooding or constant running. We’ll repair or replace the switch as needed.
• Clogged Discharge Lines: Debris and sediment can clog the discharge lines, preventing the pump from draining water properly. We’ll clear the blockage and ensure smooth operation.
• No Power: If your sump pump won’t turn on at all, we’ll diagnose and repair any electrical or wiring issues.
• Unusual Noises: Grinding, rattling, or other strange noises could indicate a problem with the pump’s impeller or motor. We’ll inspect and repair any worn-out or damaged parts.

Emergency Sump Pump Repairs

During heavy rains or sudden water intrusion, sump pump failure can lead to serious flooding. That’s why we offer 24/7 emergency sump pump repair services to address issues quickly and minimize water damage.

Sump Pump Maintenance Services

Regular maintenance is key to ensuring your sump pump is always ready to protect your home when you need it most. Our sump pump maintenance services include inspecting the pump, cleaning out the pit, testing the system, and checking for any signs of wear or damage.

Routine Sump Pump Maintenance Includes:

• Testing the Pump: We’ll test your sump pump to ensure it’s working properly and can handle high water levels during storms.
• Cleaning the Sump Pit: Dirt and debris can build up in the sump pit over time, reducing the pump’s efficiency. We’ll clean the pit to ensure smooth operation.
• Inspecting the Float Switch: We’ll check the float switch to make sure it’s moving freely and isn’t stuck or malfunctioning.
• Checking the Backup Battery: If you have a battery backup system, we’ll ensure it’s fully charged and ready to operate during a power outage.

Regular maintenance helps prevent unexpected failures and extends the life of your sump pump.
