The Pump You Forget About Until It Fails

Sump pumps sit in a pit at the lowest point of your basement or cellar, doing nothing for months at a time. Then a storm hits, and the float sticks, the motor’s seized, or the discharge pipe’s blocked — and suddenly there’s water on the floor.

We service pumps annually to prevent this, repair them when they fail, and replace them when they’re past it. Genuine parts, written fixed quotes, and 12-month workmanship guarantee.

What Reading Customers Say About Our Sump Pump Work

Trevor C. — Reading

"Annual service catches things before they fail. They cleaned the pit, replaced the float switch (failing but not yet broken), and saved us a flooded basement."

Imogen F. — Reading

"Sump pump packed in during a wet October. Came out same day, replaced it with a better model, tested it. Sleeping easier now."

Hugh R. — Reading

"Old basement, no pump installed. They surveyed the space, designed a proper system with battery backup. Professional from start to finish."

Donna M. — Reading

"Sump pump kept short-cycling — running every five minutes. Engineer found a faulty check valve, replaced it, sorted. Honest diagnosis, fair price."
