When Gravity Isn't Enough

Not every drain can flow downhill to the sewer. Garage and outbuilding bathrooms, drainage pits, elevator pits and low commercial spaces often rely on a sump or sewage ejector pump. When that pump fails, water or sewage stays right where it is. 

We install, repair and replace pumps, add high-water alarms, and set up battery or water-powered backups so a storm power outage doesn’t turn into a flooded floor.

Signs You Need Water, Pipes and Leaks

If any of these sound familiar, the clog is already bigger than it looks.

Pump runs constantly or not at all

A sump pump that runs nonstop or fails to start may have a faulty switch, motor, or electrical connection.

High-water alarm going off

A high-water alarm signals that water levels are rising, potentially indicating pump failure or a blocked discharge line.

Pump is over 7 to 10 years old

Older sump pumps may be less reliable and could benefit from inspection or replacement to prevent unexpected flooding.

Loud grinding or rattling

Unusual grinding or rattling noises may indicate worn bearings, damaged components, or debris interfering with the pump.

Water or sewage standing in the pit

Standing water or sewage in the pit may indicate a failed pump, clogged line, or drainage system malfunction.

No backup and frequent storm power outages

Without a backup system, power outages during storms can leave your basement vulnerable to flooding and water damage.

FAQ

Drain Cleaning Questions

How long do these pumps last?

Usually 7 to 10 years, less if they run constantly.

Not always. Rerouting the line overhead often avoids touching the slab at all.

If a failure would flood living space or stop a business, yes. Storm outages are common here.
