Heating, Hot Water & Fixtures
A sump pump only matters if it works when the water arrives. We repair, replace and install sump pumps to help keep basements and cellars dry.
Service overview
A sump pump collects water that gathers below or around a basement floor and pumps it away from the building. Because pumps often sit idle for months, many fail without warning, usually during the storm when they’re needed most.
We test, repair and replace sump pumps, check float switches, check valves and discharge piping, and discuss options such as battery backup systems for properties where basement water is a recurring concern.
Common problems
A stuck or failed float switch, an electrical problem or a burned-out motor can stop the pump.
A stuck switch, an undersized pump or a failed check valve can keep it running.
A pump that turns on and off rapidly may have a float adjustment or pit sizing issue.
Debris can block the pump intake or the discharge line.
Water running back into the pit after every cycle makes the pump work harder and wear out sooner.
Pumps wear out over time and can fail without warning.

FAQ
Answers to common questions about sump pump services in New York City.
Have a different question? Contact us.
Test it a few times a year and before storm season by slowly pouring water into the pit to make sure the pump switches on and discharges.
Many sump pumps last around 7 to 10 years, depending on how often they run and their quality. Older pumps should be checked regularly.
A battery backup keeps pumping during a power outage, which often happens in the same storms that bring the most water. It’s worth considering if basement flooding would be costly.
Discharge should be directed safely away from the building, and rules about where it can go vary. We’ll discuss the right approach for your property.
