Keep the basement dry.
If you have a basement, a working sump pump isn't optional. Without one, the next heavy rain or snowmelt can flood it and leave you with thousands of dollars in cleanup and repairs.
When your pump stops working, call and we'll send a plumber to get it running again. Before the rains come, we can inspect and service it so it's ready.

Sump pumps$25 offa sump pump replacementWarning signs
Signs your sump pump is failing.
Pumps often give warning before they fail. Call if you notice any of these.
- Runs constantlyA pump that never shuts off is working too hard or can't keep up.
- Rapid cyclingSwitching on and off quickly often points to a float or switch problem.
- Grinding or rattlingNoise and hard vibration can mean a worn motor or debris in the pump.
- A pit that stays fullThe pump is struggling or not turning on at all.
- A stuck floatA working pump that never turns on still leaves the pit unattended.
- It's never been checkedIf no one has looked at the pump in years, you won't know it's failing until the basement floods.

Backup sump pumps
Protection when the power goes out.
The storms that flood a basement are often the same storms that knock out the power. A primary pump with no electricity can't protect anything.
We install battery-powered pumps that keep working through an outage, and second pumps on a separate circuit that take over if the first one fails.
Sump pump maintenance
Get it checked before spring.
The sump pump is out of sight and out of mind, until it's needed and doesn't work. A once-a-year inspection avoids a lot of expense and heartache.
Your plumber checks the parts and cleans out the dirt and gravel that build up in the system, so it's ready for the rain and snowmelt ahead.

What is a sump pump, and why does it matter in Chicago?
It sits at the lowest point of your home, usually a basement or crawl space. When rain or snowmelt builds up around the house, the float switch turns it on and it pumps the water away. If your home has a basement, a working sump pump is a necessity.
My sump pump stopped during a storm. What should I check?
First make sure it's plugged in and the breaker or GFCI outlet hasn't tripped. Then check that the float isn't stuck against the side of the pit. If the pump still won't run and the water is rising, call us 24/7.
Should I have a backup sump pump?
Many experts recommend one. A second pump on a separate circuit covers a failure of the first, and a battery-powered model keeps pumping when a storm cuts the power. Battery backup sump pumps.
Can you fix a pump King didn't install?
Yes. Our plumbers repair and service all makes and models. If the pump is past saving, your plumber will give you an up-front price on a replacement before any work starts.
