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.

What customers say

Bought an older house and had them scope the sewer before closing. Found a cracked section the inspection missed and it saved us a negotiation. Got the video to keep, too.

Bill H., St. Johns, MISewer camera inspection

Pipes froze during that cold snap and split in two places. He found both, fixed both, then insulated the run so it wouldn't happen again. That last part is why I'll call back.

Sandra L., St. Johns, MIFrozen pipe repair

Wanted tankless and two other companies just quoted a unit. These guys checked the gas line first and told me it needed upsizing. Honest work.

Sump Pump Installation in St. Johns: 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 St. Johns?

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 St. Johns?

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.

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.
