Our Services

If you live on the Near South Side and the basement’s getting wet, you need a reliable sump pump repair service you can trust. We charge a flat rate for diagnosis, usually $99, plus the cost of parts and labor, so you won’t get surprise fees. Scheduling is simple – call, pick a time that works, and we’ll be there same-day or next-day if it’s an emergency. Our techs start by checking the float switch, because a faulty switch is the most common cause of a pump that won’t kick on. Then we clear any clogged discharge line and test the pump’s flow to make sure water moves out of the house. If you’re worried about storms, we can install a battery backup so the pump runs even when the power’s out. Call (888) 503-1331 and we’ll get your basement dry and protected.
