Sump Pump Services
Sump pump repair and battery backup installation for basements across Greater Cincinnati, with emergency calls answered 24/7.
In the Cincinnati area, spring rain and snowmelt push a lot of water toward basements, and the sump pump is what keeps it out. Pumps often fail without warning. Common causes are a stuck float switch, a burned-out motor, a clogged intake, a check valve that lets water run back into the pit, or a power outage in the middle of a storm. We repair sump pumps for homes and businesses in Sharonville, West Chester, Mason, Loveland and across Greater Cincinnati. We test the pump, the float and the check valve and look at the discharge line. Then we tell you plainly whether a repair makes sense or the pump has reached the end of its life. We also install battery backup systems with alarms. The backup keeps the pit draining when the power goes out, and the alarm warns you before water reaches the floor. If your pit is filling and the pump isn't running, call 513-771-7588. We take calls 24/7.

Common questions
How often should I test my sump pump?
Test it a few times a year, and always before the spring rains. Slowly pour a bucket of water into the pit and make sure the pump kicks on, empties the pit and shuts off. If it hums without pumping or doesn't start, call us.
Do I need a battery backup sump pump?
Heavy storms are when the power is most likely to go out, and they are also when your pump has the most work to do. A battery backup with an alarm keeps the pit draining and lets you know something is wrong.
What should I do if my sump pump stops during a storm?
Check that the pump is plugged in and the breaker hasn't tripped, and see if the float is stuck. If it still won't run, call 513-771-7588. We answer 24/7.
