A sump pump is the last line of defense between storm water and your basement. We install reliable primary pumps with battery backup options, so protection doesn't quit when the power does.

Chattanooga's heaviest rains often arrive with the power outages that disable ordinary sump pumps — exactly when you need them most. A properly designed sump system pairs a dependable primary pump with a battery backup that takes over automatically, plus alarms that alert you to problems before water rises.
The sump basin sits at the low point of your basement or crawl space, collecting water from interior drainage or natural seepage. The pump discharges it well away from the foundation — not into a spot where it flows right back. Correct basin placement, pump sizing, and discharge routing are what separate a system that works from one that floods.
We install complete systems and replace failed pumps, including battery backup units and water-powered options where appropriate. If your current pump is aging, undersized, or has no backup, an inspection will tell you exactly where you stand before the next big storm.
We assess water volume, pit location, and power reliability at your home.

In Chattanooga, storms that flood basements often knock out power too. Backup is the difference between protection and a flooded basement during an outage.
Most pumps last 7–10 years. If yours is in that range, runs constantly, or cycles oddly, have it checked before storm season.
Well away from the foundation — ideally 10+ feet — so discharged water can't flow back. We route and bury discharge lines properly.
In many cases, yes. We can add battery backup systems and alarms to existing installations after assessing compatibility.
