Our Drain & Sewer Services

Sump Pump Installation & Replacement

Many homes that contain basements contain sump pumps, however, some do not or the pumps in the home need to be replaced. You can quickly test your sump pump by simply unplugging it and plugging it back in. If the pump kicks on and begins draining water, your pump is working correctly. You can also test your pump by running water through it. Adding just enough water to reach the float, make sure that your pump turns on and begins pumping the water away. If any of these two tests fail, your pump probably needs service or replacement.

At Reid & Pederson, we install high-quality, long-lasting sump pumps that guarantee no more worrying about water entering your basement. Our professional technicians have the knowledge to quickly get a brand new sump pump installed for you that will protect you from a flooded basement for years to come.

Battery-Backup Sump Pumps

A battery backup sump pump is a secondary pump system that kicks in automatically if your primary sump pump fails—usually due to a power outage, mechanical failure, or overwhelming water volume. It runs on a rechargeable battery and is installed alongside your main sump pump in the same sump pit. Battery backup systems are especially valuable during storms, when power loss and heavy rain often occur at the same time. They help ensure your basement stays protected, even when the primary pump can’t operate.

We also install battery backup sump pump systems that keep your pumps working in the event of a power outage in your home. Since your pumps are especially active during storms, a battery backup system is especially helpful in preventing a flooding disaster by turning on as soon as your electric pumps go out due to loss of power. Let our technicians install a battery backup system for you and give you peace of mind knowing you’ll be free from flooding.

Ejector & Sump Pump FAQ

Ejector Pump Installation

Ejector Pumps are a type of pump used to move wastewater or sewage from areas of your home that are below the main sewer line, such as a basement bathroom, laundry room, or floor drain. Because gravity can’t move the waste uphill to the sewer or septic system, an ejector pump lifts it up and out to the proper discharge point. Ejector pumps are typically installed in a sealed basin below the floor. When wastewater enters the basin, the pump activates and pushes it through a discharge pipe to the main sewer line. They are essential for preventing sewage backups in lower-level living spaces.

Our experienced technicians can quickly diagnose your ejector pump problems and can install a high-quality, long-lasting ejector pump that will give you peace of mind for years to come.

We also install battery backup sump pump systems that keep your pump working in the event of a power outage in your home. Since your pumps may be especially active during storms, these systems can save your home from a plumbing disaster by turning on as soon as your electrical sump pump goes out.
