01
Sump Pump Installation
New pump installs sized to your pit and water table. We set the pump, plumb the discharge line, wire the circuit and test under load. Most Grand Rapids homes are done in three to four hours.
View service 02Sump Pump Replacement
When a pump is past saving, we swap it out the same day. We match the impeller and motor to your pit depth and discharge height so the new unit cycles correctly.
View service 03Sump Pump Maintenance
Annual service keeps a working pump working. We clean the pit, test the float switch, check the check valve and run the pump through a full cycle. Best done before spring melt.
View service 04Sump Pump Inspection
A full inspection covers the pump, pit liner, discharge line, check valve and electrical circuit. We use an inspection camera on pits we cannot see into and report what we find.
View service 05Sump Pump Cleaning
Gravel, silt and iron bacteria clog impellers and shorten pump life. We pull the pump, flush the pit, clean the intake screen and reassemble. Common fix in older Grand Rapids homes.
View service 06Backup Sump Pump Installation
Battery and water-powered backups keep your basement dry when the power drops. We install Basement Watchdog and Glentronics systems with a dedicated charger and test the float.
View service 07Battery Backup Sump Pump Repair
Backup pumps fail quietly. We test the battery, charger, float switch and discharge line, then replace what is dead. Most repairs run under two hours.
View service 08Water-Powered Backup Sump Pump Repair
Water-powered backups use city pressure instead of a battery. We check the valve, venturi and float, and clear mineral buildup that stops them from cycling.
View service 09Sump Pump Float Switch Repair
A stuck float switch is the number one reason a pump will not turn on. We test travel, clean or replace the switch and confirm the pump kicks on at the right water level.
View service 10Sump Pump Check Valve Repair
A failed check valve sends water right back into the pit. We cut out the old valve, install a new PVC check valve and pressure-test the discharge line before we leave.
View service 11Sump Pump Discharge Line Repair
Frozen, cracked or clogged discharge lines are a Grand Rapids winter problem. We thaw, repair or reroute the line so water leaves the house and does not refreeze.
View service 12Sump Pump Pit Cleaning
Debris in the pit wears out impellers and seals. We vacuum out sediment, scrub the liner and reset the pump on a clean base so it runs cooler and longer.
View service 13Sump Pump Pit Repair
Cracked liners and crumbling concrete pits let groundwater in from the sides. We patch or reline the pit, seal the joints and reset the pump to code.
View service 14Sump Pump Pit Installation
No pit yet? We cut and pour a new sump pit, set the liner in gravel and run the discharge line to a legal drain point. Permits handled where required.
View service 15Pedestal Sump Pump Repair
Pedestal pumps are easy to service and common in older basements. We repair motors, switches and impellers, and can swap to a submersible if you want quieter operation.
View service 16Submersible Sump Pump Repair
Submersible pumps run cooler and quieter. We repair seals, impellers and motors on Zoeller, Liberty Pumps and Wayne units, then test the full cycle before we go.
View service 17Cast Iron Sump Pump Repair
Cast iron housings last decades but rust out from the inside. We inspect the housing, replace worn impellers and seals, and tell you honestly when a new pump is cheaper.
View service 18Stainless Steel Sump Pump Repair
Stainless pumps resist corrosion and handle sandy pits well. We service the motor, float and check valve, and confirm amp draw is within the manufacturer spec.
View service 19Sump Pump Motor Repair
A motor that hums but will not spin is usually a capacitor or seized bearing. We test with a multimeter, replace what failed and confirm the pump pulls normal amps.
View service 20Sump Pump Impeller Repair
Clogged or broken impellers kill flow. We pull the pump, clear debris, replace the impeller and gasket, and reseal the housing so it does not leak.
View service 21Sump Pump Alarm Installation
An alarm tells you the water is rising before the floor is wet. We mount the sensor at the right height, wire it to the circuit and test it with water.
View service 22Sump Pump Alarm Repair
False alarms and dead sensors are common after a few years. We test the float, clean the contacts and replace the sensor or the whole unit when needed.
View service 23Basement Waterproofing
Pumps are one part of a dry basement. We seal walls, repair cracks and improve drainage so groundwater stops finding its way in around the pit.
View service 24Basement Drainage Solutions
When water pools around the foundation, we install interior drains, trench drains and grading fixes that move water to the sump pit instead of your floor.

Sump Pump Repair Grand Rapids MI FAQs
These are the questions we get most from Grand Rapids homeowners. If yours is not here, call us at +16166168292 and we will give you a straight answer.
Still wondering?+16166168292
Most repairs run $129 to $650 depending on the part and the labor involved. A float switch or check valve replacement usually lands in the $275 to $450 range. Pump replacements run $650 to $1,400 installed. We quote the job before we start, so you know the number up front.
Look for a licensed plumbing contractor who stocks parts, tests the pump before leaving, and gives you a written price. We have been doing this in Grand Rapids since 2015, we carry Zoeller and Liberty Pumps on the truck, and we follow the Michigan Plumbing Code on every install.
If water is rising in your pit and the pump is not kicking on, yes. Call us at +16166168292. A stuck float switch or tripped breaker can be fixed in under two hours, and that is the difference between a dry floor and a flooded basement.
Ask three things: are they a licensed plumbing contractor, do they carry parts on the truck, and will they quote the job before starting. A company that answers all three is set up to fix your pump in one visit instead of scheduling a second trip for parts.
A cast iron or stainless steel submersible pump with a vertical float switch handles our water table and sediment best. Zoeller and Liberty Pumps make reliable units for this climate. Pair it with a battery backup so spring storms and power outages do not leave you wet.
