Reliable battery backup sump pump systems that automatically kick in during power outages and pump failures.
You know that sinking feeling when the power goes out during a heavy downpour. Your primary sump pump stops working right when you need it most. Your finished basement, your stored belongings, your peace of mind – all at risk.
A battery backup sump pump system changes that completely. When your main pump fails or loses power, the backup system automatically takes over. No intervention needed from you.
Your basement stays dry. Your belongings stay safe. You can actually relax during storms instead of running downstairs every hour to check for water. That’s what real protection feels like.
We’ve been protecting Inverness homes from basement flooding for years. We understand the unique challenges of our area – the clay soil that doesn’t drain well, the spring storms that knock out power, the finished basements that represent major investments.
We’re not the cheapest option, and that’s intentional. You’re getting professional installation, quality equipment, and the kind of service that means your system works when you need it. Our technicians are licensed, insured, and familiar with local building codes.
When your neighbors need basement protection, they call us. That reputation doesn’t happen by accident.
We start with an assessment of your current sump pump setup and basement layout. Every home is different, and the backup system needs to work seamlessly with what you already have.
The battery backup unit gets installed alongside your existing primary pump. We connect it to a deep-cycle marine battery that’s designed for this exact purpose. The system includes a control panel that monitors both pumps and switches automatically when needed.
We test everything thoroughly before we leave. You’ll see exactly how the backup activates, how long the battery lasts, and what the alarm signals mean. We also show you the simple maintenance steps to keep everything running properly. The whole installation typically takes a few hours, and you’re protected immediately.

Your battery backup system includes the backup pump unit, deep-cycle battery, automatic controller, and high-water alarm. We use equipment that’s specifically designed for basement sump applications – not generic pumps that might work.
The controller automatically monitors your primary pump and activates the backup when needed. It also charges the battery continuously and alerts you if there’s any issue with the system. Most batteries provide 6-8 hours of continuous pumping, which covers the vast majority of power outages.
We handle all permits and ensure everything meets local codes. You get manufacturer warranties on the equipment plus our guarantee on the installation work. We also provide clear instructions for basic maintenance and battery replacement when the time comes.
