Reliable battery backup sump pump systems that keep your basement dry when the power goes out.
Your basement stays completely dry even when storms knock out power for hours. No more rushing downstairs with flashlights during thunderstorms, wondering if everything’s still working down there.
You protect thousands of dollars worth of stored items, finished basement investments, and avoid the nightmare of water damage cleanup. Your home value stays intact, and you skip the insurance headaches that come with flood claims.
The system kicks in automatically the moment your primary pump loses power. You don’t lift a finger, flip a switch, or even wake up. It just works, giving you 8-12 hours of reliable backup pumping power when you need it most.
We’ve been protecting Hoffman Estates basements for years, and we’ve seen what happens when backup systems fail or aren’t installed properly. We’re not the guys who show up, slap in any old battery backup, and disappear.
We size systems correctly for your specific setup, use quality components that actually last, and make sure everything integrates seamlessly with your existing sump pump. Our installations meet all local codes, and we pull proper permits so you’re covered if insurance questions ever come up.
When severe weather hits the northwest suburbs, we’re the team homeowners call because they know we’ll be available and we’ll get it right the first time.
We start by evaluating your current sump pump setup and basement layout to determine the right backup system size and configuration. Not every battery backup works with every primary pump, so we make sure you get components that actually work together.
The installation typically takes 2-4 hours depending on your setup. We connect the backup pump to your existing discharge pipe, install the battery and charging system, and set up monitoring so you know when maintenance is needed. Everything gets tested thoroughly before we leave.
Once it’s in, the system monitors your primary pump continuously. The moment power cuts out or your main pump fails, the battery backup automatically takes over. You get an audible alert so you know it’s running, but otherwise it handles everything on its own until power returns.

Your installation includes the backup pump, deep-cycle battery, automatic charger, and monitoring system that alerts you to any issues. We handle all permits and ensure everything meets local building codes so you’re fully covered.
We’ll walk you through how the system works and what to watch for, plus set up a maintenance schedule that keeps your battery and pump in top condition. Most homeowners in Hoffman Estates find they need battery replacement every 3-4 years, and we’ll remind you when it’s time.
You also get our emergency service availability. If something goes wrong during a storm, we’re not hiding until the weather clears. We understand that backup systems sometimes need attention exactly when you need them most, and we plan our service accordingly.
