Don’t Let the Next Storm Wreck Your Basement

A single storm can flood your basement, damage your foundation, and destroy everything stored below. A sump pump gives you peace of mind—automatically keeping water out before it ever becomes a problem.

💧 What Is a Sump Pump and Why Does It Matter?

Definition: A sump pump is a waterproofing system installed at the lowest point of your basement or crawlspace. It sits in a pit (sump basin) and removes water that collects around your foundation—pumping it out and away from your home.

Why It Matters: Without a sump pump, even minor storms or groundwater buildup can lead to serious flooding, mold growth, and structural damage. It's a critical layer of protection for any home vulnerable to water intrusion.

Inspection & Site Evaluation

We assess your basement or crawlspace to determine the optimal sump pump location, pit depth, and discharge route.

Pump Selection: Submersible or Pedestal

We help you choose the right sump pump

Submersible Pumps: Best for finished basements—quiet, efficient, and out of sight

Pedestal Pumps: Easier to service, great for smaller or utility basements

Sump Pit Setup & Excavation

We dig the sump pit, install a durable basin, add a gravel base for drainage, and seal the area for long-term performance.

Discharge Line Installation

We route the water away from your home using exterior piping, extensions, or underground drainage systems.

Optional Battery Backup Installation

We offer smart backup systems so your sump pump keeps working—even if the power goes out during a storm.

System Testing & Cleanup

After installation, we test the full system and ensure everything is clean, tight, and ready to handle the next rainfall..

Signs You May Need a Sump Pump

🔋 Why Add a Battery Backup System?

When storms knock out power, your pump won’t work—unless you have a backup. We install battery-powered systems that kick in automatically when your primary pump loses power. Essential for homes in storm-prone or blackout-prone areas.

System checkups
