What Makes a Sump Pump System?

A reliable sump pump is much more than a simple pumping system.  A sump pump should include a reliable, airtight liner, a sump pump alarm to let you know of failures, and sump pump stands to keep it off the bottom of the liner. The system should have a proper discharge, and it should be quiet, effective, and able to drain water from plumbing leaks. And if you don't have a battery backup pump system, your home is one power outage away from a flood.  And what happens if your discharge line freezes in the winter?  Click to learn more about the parts of a sump pump system.

Sump Pump Installation

What can you expect when we install a sump pump in your home? Our expert sump pump contractors will dig a trench around the interior perimeter of your home, removing a small section of the floor and digging out the space underneath. A clean bed of stone is laid underneath, and a sump pump drain is laid on top. The sump pump pit is installed, and a discharge line is run to the outside. Our sump pump systems include the entire package- from a durable liner, to a special innovation on the traditional French drain design. And we can upgrade everything else in your basement as well, including the windows, walls, and floors. Click to read more about our sump pump installations.
