Sump Pump Services in Old Brooklyn

Sump Pump Replacement

Worn-out or failed pumps replaced with properly sized units, usually on the same visit. We match the pump to your pit and how much water your basement actually takes on.

Sump Pump Repair

Stuck floats, failed switches, broken check valves, and clogged intakes. If a repair makes sense, we fix it; if the pump is near the end of its life, we’ll tell you.

Pedestal to Submersible Upgrades

Many older Old Brooklyn basements still have pedestal pumps, where the motor sits on a post above the pit. Submersible pumps sit inside the pit, run quieter, and are usually more powerful. We’ll help you decide whether an upgrade makes sense.

Battery Backup Systems

The storms that fill your pit are the same storms that cause power outages. A battery backup runs a second pump when the main pump loses power or fails.

New Sump Pump Installation

If your basement takes on water and you don’t have a sump pump, we can install a complete system: basin, pump, check valve, and discharge line.

Why Old Brooklyn Basements Take On Water

  • Hillside lots and valley drainage. Many streets slope toward the Big Creek valley, so groundwater moves toward and around foundations.
  • Older foundations. Homes built in the early and mid-1900s often have foundation walls and drain tiles that have aged and shifted.
  • Heavy rain and snowmelt. Spring thaws and summer storms can raise groundwater quickly.
  • Power outages. Storms can cut power at the worst moment, leaving a pump without backup useless.
  • Aging pumps. Most sump pumps last about 7 to 10 years, and a pump that hasn’t been checked in years may not start when it’s needed.

Two-Family Homes & Rentals

In Old Brooklyn’s two-family homes, one basement often serves both units, and a flooded basement can mean ruined storage, damaged laundry equipment, and frustrated tenants. We help owners and landlords by:

    • Inspecting and testing sump pumps before storm season
    • Replacing failing pumps quickly and adding battery backups
    • Coordinating access with tenants
    • Providing written documentation for your records

Signs Your Sump Pump Needs Attention

  • It runs constantly or cycles on and off rapidly
  • It makes grinding, rattling, or loud humming noises
  • It doesn’t turn on when water rises in the pit
  • Water is on the basement floor near the pit
  • The pump or discharge pipe is rusted or corroded
  • The pump is 7 to 10 years old or older
  • You don’t have a battery backup

Thanks so much for your wonderful service!

This place is great – In and out quickly, and the technicians, Dale and Chase, were respectful, exceptionally kind and even really funny too. They created a safe and welcoming environment and explained everything very simply, in a way that was easy to understand. I would definitely use this company again, as this was a great experience. They even squeezed us in for a same day appointment, which was great. You guys are the best – Thanks so much for your wonderful service!
