A quality submersible sump pump typically lasts 7 to 10 years with normal use and annual maintenance. Pumps in areas with high water table or frequent cycling may have shorter lifespans. Battery backup systems should have their batteries replaced every 3 to 5 years.

A sump pump that runs during dry weather may be responding to groundwater seeping up from below — common in areas with a high water table. It could also indicate a stuck float switch, a malfunctioning check valve allowing discharged water to return to the pit, or a discharge line that drains back into the pit.

Yes, if your basement is finished or contains valuables. Power outages and sump pump failures are most likely to occur during the exact storms that produce the most groundwater. A battery backup system provides protection when your primary pump cannot.

Yes. We install complete sump pump systems in basements that currently lack one — including cutting the sump pit, installing the liner and pump, running the discharge line to the exterior, and installing the appropriate check valve.
