Sump Pump Installation & Repair in West Palm Beach, FL
A sump pump that isn't working is a real flooding risk during South Florida's storm season. We repair pumps that have stopped cycling and install new systems, including battery backup options for properties that lose power during heavy weather.
"My Basement Or Garage Keeps Flooding When It Rains"
Most people don't think about their sump pump until water shows up where it shouldn't during a storm. If a low-lying area of your property regularly takes on water during heavy rain, that's the exact situation a properly working sump pump is built to prevent.

Common Questions
The most obvious sign is water where it shouldn't be, but a pump that's running constantly or never running during rain is also a warning sign worth checking before it fails completely.
If your property has flooded during a power outage before, or is prone to standing water, backup power is worth the added cost for storm-season peace of mind.
Yes, we install new systems in properties without one, sized to the actual water risk on site.
We recommend testing before hurricane season each year, in addition to addressing it immediately if you notice any of the warning signs above.
That's usually a drainage or grading issue that a sump pump is specifically designed to manage, either because one isn't installed there yet or because an existing one isn't functioning correctly.
What's Included
Repairs most commonly involve the float switch, the component that senses rising water and triggers the pump, since it fails more often than the motor itself. New installations include sizing the pump to your pit's capacity and the property's actual water intrusion risk, plus an optional battery backup system that keeps the pump running through a power outage, which matters most during the exact storms most likely to cause flooding in the first place.
Serving West Palm Beach & Palm Beach County
West Palm Beach's flat terrain and high water table mean stormwater has fewer places to drain naturally during heavy rain events, which puts real, recurring demand on sump pump systems during the region's wet season and hurricane season alike.
What To Expect Next
We recommend testing the pump manually before hurricane season each year by pouring water into the pit and confirming it activates and drains properly, in addition to whatever we already checked during service. If a battery backup was installed, that battery typically needs replacement every few years to stay reliable.
New and repaired systems are tested by simulating a rising water level in the pit, confirming the float switch triggers and the pump clears the water as expected before we call the job done.
Often Booked Together
A sump pump is usually the first line of defense before a flooding event becomes a water damage restoration job, so keeping it in working order matters more than it might seem. If a pump failure has already led to water intrusion, water mitigation is the immediate next call.
