Sump Pump Repair — Same-Day Service Available

A sump pump usually gives warning signs before it fails completely. Call us if you notice:

• The pump runs constantly or cycles on and off too often
• Grinding, rattling, or humming noises from the pit
• The pump doesn't turn on when water rises
• Stuck or failing float switch
• Water in the pit but slow or weak discharge
• Tripped breakers or the pump losing power

Many repairs — a jammed float, a clogged intake, a failed check valve — are quick fixes when caught early. Same-day service is available during business hours, because sump pump problems have a habit of showing up right before a storm.

Sump Pump Replacement & New Installation

Sump pumps typically last 7–10 years. If yours is past that, or repair no longer makes sense, we'll install a new pump properly sized for your home's water volume — submersible or pedestal, from trusted brands like Zoeller, Liberty, and Wayne. Every installation includes a correctly fitted check valve, a sealed and tested system, and a full demonstration before we leave.

Battery Backup Sump Pumps

Here's the hard truth about Minnesota storms: the same weather that floods your basement often knocks out your power — and a dead outlet means a dead sump pump, right when you need it most. A battery backup system keeps pumping for hours during an outage. If your finished basement holds anything you'd hate to lose, this is the cheapest insurance you can buy. Ask us about adding backup protection to your existing system.

Sump Pump Discharge Line Repair

Your pump is only half the system — the discharge line carries the water away from your foundation. We repair and improve:

• Frozen discharge lines — a classic Minnesota winter failure that can burn out your pump
• Crushed, disconnected, or leaking discharge pipes
• Lines that drain too close to the foundation, recycling water back into your pit
• Missing check valves that make the pump re-pump the same water

If your pump runs but the water keeps coming back, the discharge line is usually the culprit.
