The problem

How sump pump installation works, step by step

  1. Test the existing pump

    Float switch, check valve, discharge line and pump motor all get checked under real water.

  2. Size the replacement

    Pit dimensions, water table and discharge run determine the horsepower and the pump type.

  3. Install with a proper discharge

    Correct check valve, sealed lid, and a discharge that carries water away from the foundation instead of back into it.

  4. Add backup if you want it

    Battery backup or water-powered backup keeps the pit clear through an outage.

Galvanized pipes, brown water, pressure like a garden hose. They repiped the whole house in three days and patched every access cut. Water runs clear now.

Yvonne S., Pontiac, MIRepiping

The toilet had been running for months and I'd been ignoring it. Twenty minutes, one flapper and a fill valve. I should have called a year ago.

Anthony D., Pontiac, MIToilet repair

Called at 11pm with water coming through the kitchen ceiling. Someone picked up, talked me through the shutoff, and had a plumber at the house before midnight. The price he quoted was the price I paid.

Sump Pump Installation in Pontiac: common questions

How often should a sump pump be replaced?

Most pumps run reliably for several years of seasonal use, but they should be tested every spring and fall. A pump that runs constantly wears out much faster than one that cycles occasionally.

Do I need a battery backup in Pontiac?

If your basement is finished or you store anything on the floor, it's worth it. Storms that overwhelm the pit are the same storms that take the power out.

How much does a plumber cost in Pontiac?

We quote flat by the job, not by the hour. You get the full number before any work starts, so the invoice matches the quote. There is no meter running while you decide.

Can you fix a burst pipe in Pontiac today?

Yes. Burst pipes are treated as top priority. Call and we will start walking you through shutting the water off while a plumber is being dispatched to your address.

Do you offer 24 hour emergency plumbing in Pontiac?

Yes. Our Pontiac line is answered 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including weekends and holidays. Emergency calls such as burst pipes, sewage backups and active leaks are prioritized ahead of scheduled work.

Do you charge extra for nights and weekends?

After-hours rates are stated on the phone before we dispatch, so there are no surprises when the invoice arrives. You always know the number in advance.
