Why a Sump Pump Is Essential in Toronto

- Flood Protection: Prevents water intrusion, saving you from costly flood damages.
- Moisture Control: Reduces the risk of mold, mildew, and structural damage caused by excess humidity.
- Healthy Indoor Environment: Helps keep your basement dry, improving indoor air quality and preventing mold-related allergies.

We follow a comprehensive and meticulous process when installing sump pumps to ensure maximum efficiency and longevity. Here’s what you can expect:
- Initial Assessment
- We start by performing a thorough inspection of your basement or crawl space.
- We locate the low-lying areas where water tends to pool, helping us determine the ideal spot for the sump pit.
- Sump Pit Preparation
- Our team will dig a sump pit that meets the correct dimensions for your chosen sump pump model.
- We install a durable liner to keep your pit secure and prevent soil from collapsing into the pit over time.

- We can also discuss additional features such as battery backup options to provide extra protection during power outages.
- Pump Installation and Connections
- We securely place the sump pump in the pit and connect it to a discharge pipe that leads water away from your foundation.
- Our technicians make sure the pump and piping are sealed and secured to prevent any leaks or blockages.
- Testing and Final Checks
- Once the pump is installed, we perform a series of tests to ensure it’s functioning correctly.

Common Sump Pump Problems
Dealing with slow or clogged drains? Our drain cleaning services in Mississauga remove blockages and restore your plumbing flow.
Our drain cleaning services include:
- Power Failures
- During severe storms, power outages can disable your sump pump.
- A battery backup or generator can keep your pump running when you need it most.
- Clogged or Frozen Discharge Lines
- Dirt, debris, or freezing temperatures can obstruct your discharge lines.
- Regular inspections and proper insulation (in colder months) help avoid this problem.
- Float Switch Malfunction
- The float switch activates the pump when water levels rise. If it sticks or fails, the pump won’t run when needed.
- Routine checks can ensure proper function of the float switch.
- Overworked Pump
- An undersized pump or improperly placed discharge pipe can cause your sump pump to work too hard, leading to premature failure.
- Adequate pump sizing and professional installation help mitigate this risk.
- General Wear and Tear
- Like any mechanical device, sump pumps can wear out over time.
- Scheduled maintenance and timely replacements help you avoid sudden breakdowns.
Types of Sump Pumps
When installing a sump pump, it’s important to choose the right type to suit your home’s needs:
- Submersible Sump Pumps
- Installed entirely below the water line in the sump pit.
- Operate quietly and are generally more efficient.
- Sealed to protect the motor from water damage.
- Pedestal Sump Pumps
- The motor is elevated above the water line on a pedestal, making it easier to service.
- Ideal for smaller sump pits or areas with limited space.
- Usually less expensive upfront but can be slightly noisier.
- Water-Powered Sump Pumps
- Use municipal water pressure to pump out excess water if the main sump pump fails or power is lost.
- Highly reliable in power outages, provided there is sufficient water pressure.
- An eco-friendly alternative, though you need consistent municipal water supply for best performance.

Permit requirements vary by municipality. Our team can guide you through the process to ensure your installation meets local regulations.
