Sump Pump Installation, Rebate & Repair
Basement flooding is unfortunately a problem that many homeowners will have to deal with at some point. Whether it’s due to heavy rainfall, increased water level due to melting snow, or a burst pipe, a flooded basement is an issue that can cause some serious damage—not only to your valuables and belongings, but to your home and property as well.
One of the ways you can mitigate floods and protect your unfinished or finished basement is a sump pump. A sump pump will redirect water away from the foundation and footings of your home, ensuring it stays dry.

Our Sump Pump Services
Sump Pump Installation
If you’re noticing signs of basement flooding, it’s time to take action and install a sump pump to prevent catastrophic damage.
Dr HVAC’s team of friendly plumbers will assess your basement and household needs and recommend the proper size and type of sump pump.
Sump pump installation begins with digging a hole in the lowest part of your basement (usually where the water enters and accumulates). It’s important to have a professional tackle the installation, as breaking up your basement’s concrete floor can jeopardize the structure of your home if not done properly.
After the hole (or sump pit) has been dug, a professional plumber will install a sump pump. Most sump pumps require power, so if there’s no power source nearby, you might need to contact an electrician as well.
Sump Pump Repair
Like any mechanical device, a sump pump has multiple moving parts, and if one or more of those parts fail, the whole system might not work as intended.
If you’re having any issues with your sump pump such as motor failure, clogged pipes, or switch malfunctions, give us a call. A professional plumber from Dr HVAC will be able to diagnose the issue and restore the functionality of your sump pump system.
If you find that your system isn’t working as it should, give us a call.
Sump Pump Maintenance
Staying on top of maintenance is crucial in order to maintain proper operation of your sump pump. Regular testing will give you peace of mind and ensure that your sump pump will actually switch on when you need it.
Groundwater has high volumes of minerals, sediments, and debris, which can lead to clogs. It’s important to flush your system regularly to ensure it stays in good working order.
When you’re dealing with all the risks that come with a flooded basement, you need experts you can trust. Our plumbers will maintain your plumbing system and keep it in good working order.
