Trusted Sump Pump Repair & Installation in forest park

Sump pumps, like ejector pumps are an integral part of your home’s plumbing – protecting your home from flooding during heavy rainstorms and helping your sewer system remove waste. When a sump pump sits idle, it is like a car battery sitting for months without being started. Any home that has a sump pump pit is vulnerable to water damage, especially basement flooding in our area, if you lose power or if there is a failure of the pump.

When it comes to sump pumps, we are the experts. We offer the top-rated battery backup sump pumps available to keep you protected and your home safe.

Maintenance Ensures Sump Pump Reliability

Over the last few months, your sump pump may have been sitting idle in your sump pit, which is usually located in your basement. Fall and winter seasons can bring heavy rain and melting snow. While your sump pump may have been working fine last season, there is NO guarantee that it will work when you most need it.

Test Your Sump Pump at Home

Do a pour test…

Fill a five-gallon bucket with water and pour it slowly around the sump pump. The pump should turn on once the water level reaches a predetermined level. If the pump doesn’t turn on, it may be either clogged or a faulty connection. If it doesn’t kick on and you’re at a loss as to why … we can help!

Our team can find the reason for the sump pump failure and recommend the right course of action.

When is the Best Time for Repair?

You know it’s time for a sump pump repair if your sump pump starts making strange noises. Does it keep turning on and off? Is it just staying off?

The process of a sump pump installation can be quite labor intensive. That’s because installing sump pumps requires breaking into the home’s foundation itself and digging down as much as 3 feet below the current foundation of the home. That alone can be quite labor intensive and intimidating for many homeowners. Also battery backup Systems are always a great investment in the case you lose electricity during a storm. A battery backup system will allow your sump pump to run and do its job even when the power and electricity is out, saving your home from any potential flooding.
