Sump Pump Installation

What This Service Involves

In our rainy climate, a properly installed sump pump is often the difference between a dry basement and thousands in water damage. We set the basin at the low point where groundwater collects, install a reliable pump sized to your inflow, and route the discharge safely away from the foundation. For homes that flood during power outages, we can add a battery backup so the pump keeps running when the grid goes down. The system is tested under load so you know it will perform during the next atmospheric river.

Benefits

Protects basements and crawlspaces from costly water damage; pump sized to handle PNW groundwater inflow; discharge routed safely away from the foundation; optional battery backup runs during power outages; tested under real conditions before we leave

Our Process

1) Identify the low collection point and set the sump basin; 2) Install a properly sized pump and check valve; 3) Route discharge away from the foundation to daylight or storm drain; 4) Test the float and pump, and add backup power if desired

What Affects the Cost

Primary pump versus a primary-plus-backup system; whether a new basin must be excavated; discharge run length and routing; battery backup or water-powered backup options; permit requirements where applicable

Best Time of Year

Install before the fall rains arrive so your system is proven and ready when groundwater levels rise.
