The sump pump does the quiet work
A sump pump sits in a pit at the low point of the basement and pumps out groundwater before it rises to the floor. In wet weather it may run often, which is normal. What is not normal is a pump that runs constantly, never runs, hums without moving water, or trips the breaker. Most failures come from a worn float switch, a clogged intake or an aging motor.
A backup pump, battery or water powered, keeps the pit under control during a power outage or when the main pump quits. For a finished basement it is worth having.

Main lines and backups
The basement sits lowest on the drain line, so a main line clog shows up there first, often as water at a floor drain. We clear the main, then camera it to find out why it clogged, so you know whether it was a one-off or a pipe problem.

Services here
- Sump Pump RepairA sump pump that will not start, runs nonstop or hums without moving water is a basement flood waiting for the next storm.
- Sump Pump Backup SystemsPrimary sump pumps tend to fail at the worst time, during heavy rain or when the power is out. A backup pump is there for exactly that moment.
- Main Line RepairEvery house has two main lines: the water service that brings water in and the main drain that takes waste out. When one fails, the whole house feels it. We find which one and fix it.
- Sewer Camera InspectionA camera on a push cable shows exactly what is inside your sewer line. It turns a guess into a decision, and it often saves a repair you did not need.
- Emergency PlumbingBurst pipes, sewer backups and overflowing toilets do not wait for business hours. Call (973) 513-7751 any time. We help you stop the damage on the phone and get a licensed plumber to you.

How often should a sump pump run?
It depends on the water table and the weather. Running often after heavy rain is normal. Running nonstop in dry weather, or never running when the pit is full, means something needs a look.
