Sump Pump Solutions for Every Home
From new installations to battery back-up protection and sewage grinder pumps, we keep your basement dry and your foundation safe. Our team installs dependable, code-compliant systems built to handle Alberta's toughest conditions.
Primary Sump Pump Installation
Dependable primary sump pump installations that collect water from around your foundation and redirect it safely away from your home, keeping your basement dry through every storm.
Battery Back-Up Sump Pump System
When the power goes out during a severe storm, a battery-powered back-up pump takes over automatically, keeping water out for days so your home stays protected no matter what.
Sewage Grinder Pump
A grinder pump works like a household disposal on a larger scale, grinding solids and tough waste into a fine slurry and pumping it safely into the sewer system for homes with below-grade plumbing.
Why Alberta Homes Need a Sump Pump
Wild weather swings and rapid freeze-thaw cycles are increasingly common across Alberta, raising the risk of flash floods and sewer backup in every neighbourhood — not just low-lying areas.
Flooding or sewer backup can cause severe damage to your home, requiring extensive repairs to the foundation, flooring, and walls. Water damage can destroy furniture, electronics, and irreplaceable personal belongings in minutes.
A typical insurance policy may not cover damage caused by overland flooding or sewer backup. Inspection and prevention are the key to avoiding costly structural repairs. The most effective way to protect your home is to install a sump pump that automatically removes excess water before it can enter your basement.
Signs It's Time to Replace Your Sump Pump
Sump pumps typically last 5 to 10 years. If you notice any of the warning signs below, call us before a small issue becomes a flooded basement.
Won't turn on when the water level rises — a stuck float switch or dead motor means your protection is gone.
Runs for several minutes at a time — your pump may be underpowered for the water volume it needs to handle.
Switches on and off frequently — short cycling can burn out the motor and leave you unprotected when it matters most.
Extremely noisy operation — grinding, rattling, or humming often points to worn bearings or a failing impeller.
Over 10 years old — even a quiet pump past its service life is a risk. Plan a replacement before the next storm season.
Visible rust or corrosion — rust weakens internal components and signals the pump is nearing the end of its life.
