Complete Sump Pump Installation Services

Everything You Need for Basement Protection

Your sump pump installation includes professional excavation, proper pit sizing, and high-quality pump selection matched to your basement’s needs. We handle all electrical connections, discharge piping, and code compliance requirements.

We also install backup power options when needed, because storms often bring power outages right when your sump pump needs to work hardest. Battery backup systems keep your basement protected even when the lights go out.

Every installation comes with clear operating instructions and maintenance recommendations. You’ll understand how to monitor your system and recognize when professional service is needed. We’re always available for questions or concerns after your installation is complete.

Most residential sump pump installations take 4-6 hours to complete properly. This includes excavating the sump pit, installing the pump and discharge system, making electrical connections, and testing everything thoroughly. If we’re replacing an existing system, the work often goes faster since the pit and some piping may already be in place. Complex installations with backup systems or challenging basement layouts might take longer, but we’ll give you a clear timeline before starting work.
Sump pump sizing depends on your basement’s square footage, local water table conditions, and how quickly water typically enters your space during heavy rains. Most Hanover Park homes need pumps that can handle 2,500-4,000 gallons per hour, but we calculate the exact requirements during our initial assessment. We measure your basement, evaluate existing drainage, and consider your property’s specific conditions to recommend the right pump capacity. Oversizing wastes energy and money, while undersizing leaves you vulnerable to flooding.
Backup systems make sense if your basement contains valuable items, finished living space, or if you’ve experienced flooding before. Power outages during storms are common in our area, and that’s exactly when your primary pump might fail you. Battery backup pumps activate automatically when your main system can’t operate, providing several hours of protection during outages. We also install water-powered backup systems that work as long as you have municipal water pressure, requiring no electricity or battery maintenance.
Basic sump pump installation typically ranges from $800-1,500 for standard residential setups, depending on pump type, pit requirements, and electrical work needed. Systems with battery backup or more complex discharge routing cost more, usually $1,200-2,500 total. We provide upfront pricing after evaluating your specific situation – no surprises or hidden fees. The investment pays for itself quickly when you consider the thousands of dollars in potential water damage that proper sump pump protection prevents.
We route discharge piping away from your foundation to prevent water from cycling back toward your basement. Most installations connect to existing drainage systems, daylight to your yard’s natural slope, or tie into municipal storm sewers where permitted. The discharge point must be at least 10 feet from your foundation and positioned to direct water away from neighboring properties. We handle all local permit requirements and ensure your discharge setup meets Hanover Park building codes.
Quality sump pumps typically last 7-10 years with proper maintenance, though some run reliably for 15+ years. Annual testing and cleaning help maximize lifespan and ensure reliable operation when you need it most. We recommend testing your system before storm season each year and having it professionally serviced every 2-3 years. Signs that replacement might be needed include frequent cycling, unusual noises, visible rust or corrosion, or failure to remove water effectively during testing.
