Signs Your Sump Pump Needs Service

Strange Sounds When Operating: Grinding noises, rattling or humming indicate that the motor bearings may be worn out, impellers damaged, or debris is inside the pump housing.

Constant Operation without Stopping: A continuously operating pump may have its float switch stuck, a blocked discharge line, or lack enough energy to operate against the water volume coming into it.

Erratic Cycling Behaviour: Frequent on/off cycling in a span of several seconds shows problems in switch calibration, check valve malfunction or wrong basin sizing.

Brown Stains and White Mineral Deposits: Rust spots on your pump will damage the internal parts and make the pump fail during a storm.

Infrequent Operation and Old Age: Pumps above seven years old will start performing inefficiently and become mechanically unreliable, hence being prone to malfunction.

Strong Vibrations: Excessive vibrations caused by a running motor show that there is a bent propeller inside or internal parts are not aligned well and will lead to a complete motor burnout.

Bad Smell from Your Basin: If you notice a musty smell near your basin, it means there is stagnating water, sludge or bacteria in the pit.

Our Sump Pump Services

Installation and Replacement of Sump Pump: Based on a careful assessment of the structure of your house and analysis of groundwater seepage, we provide top-performing submersible or pedestal systems suited to your needs. The old and inefficient pumps are replaced by robust cast iron systems capable of handling water efficiently.

Sump Pump Repairs: Mechanical failures usually occur during emergencies. With our highly skilled licensed plumbers on call, we ensure diagnosis of problems with suitable spare parts available to unblock the pump, repair the float switch and ensure proper drainage without causing any damage to your finishing.

Battery Backup System Installation: Electrical failures are common in extreme weather conditions in Southern Ontario. We provide dual battery backup systems, which operate as soon as the primary power fails, ensuring basement safety during extreme weather conditions.

Maintenance Services: Regular inspection will make sure that the system works efficiently, extending its life expectancy by twice. Cleaning of the sump pit, testing of the check valves, inspection of discharge pipes for the presence of ice and motor operation will make sure you don’t face any failure during the storm season.

Alarm Systems for Smart Sump Pumps: Today’s technology gives you complete reassurance in case anything happens. The alarm system and the smart sensors equipped with Wi-Fi give you instant phone alerts if the water exceeds its limit or there’s any power outage.

Discharge Line Inspection and Reorientation: It is important to make sure that the discharge line discharges water far away from your basement wall. We do inspection, thawing, and redirecting the outdoor pipes to prevent any freeze hazards or backflows.

Basin Clean-Out and Sealed Lids: Dirt, dust, and other particles in your basin can damage the pump motor and give off foul odor. We clean up the pit debris and seal the pit lid.
