Professional battery backup systems that work when your power doesn’t and your primary pump can’t.
You sleep through storms instead of checking your basement every hour. Your finished basement stays dry when the power goes out and your primary sump pump stops working. Your stored belongings, holiday decorations, and family memories stay safe above the water line.
The best battery backup sump pump systems kick in automatically when your main pump fails or loses power. You get text alerts if something’s wrong, but most of the time, you just get peace of mind. No more rushing home during thunderstorms or worrying about what you’ll find after a long weekend away.
Your basement becomes a reliable space again, not a constant source of anxiety. That’s what proper backup protection actually delivers.
We’ve been protecting Lombard basements for years. We know which battery backup systems hold up in DuPage County’s weather and which ones leave you high and dry when you need them most.
We’re the plumbers other contractors call when they need sump pump work done right. Licensed, insured, and focused on installations that last. Most of our work comes from referrals because we show up when we say we will and install systems that actually protect your basement.
You won’t find us cutting corners on battery capacity or skipping the permits. Your backup system needs to work when everything else fails.
First, we evaluate your current sump pump setup and basement layout. We measure your space, check your electrical, and determine the right battery backup capacity for your specific situation. Not every basement needs the same system.
Next, we install the battery backup sump pump alongside your existing primary pump. The backup system monitors your main pump and water levels continuously. When your primary pump can’t keep up or loses power, the battery backup activates automatically.
We test everything before we leave. You’ll see exactly how the system responds to different scenarios, and we’ll show you the monitoring features. We also handle all permits and inspections required in Lombard. After installation, you get our direct contact information for any questions or concerns.

You get a properly sized battery backup system that matches your basement’s needs. We install the backup pump, battery, control panel, and monitoring system. All electrical connections are code-compliant and permitted through Lombard’s building department.
Your system includes automatic switching between primary and backup pumps, low battery alerts, and high water level warnings. We set up text or email notifications so you know if something needs attention. The installation includes a full system test and walkthrough of all features.
We also provide battery maintenance schedules and replacement services. Most homeowners in Lombard need battery replacement every 3-5 years, depending on usage. We track your system and remind you when it’s time for service, so your backup protection stays reliable year after year.
