Power outages are the number one cause of sump pump failure, and they often happen during the same storms that bring heavy rain. That is why PlumbWize installs battery backup systems that keep your pump running even when the power goes out. We can add a backup to your existing system or include one with a new installation.
While a basic pump swap may look simple, proper installation involves correct pump sizing, check valve placement, discharge line routing, and electrical connections. An incorrectly installed sump pump can fail during a storm, potentially causing thousands of dollars in water damage. Our licensed plumbers ensure everything meets Ontario building code requirements and works reliably when you need it most.
Sump pump installation costs vary depending on whether you are replacing an existing unit or installing a brand-new system. A straightforward replacement typically costs less than a full installation that involves creating a new sump pit and drainage connections. PlumbWize provides upfront, transparent quotes before any work begins, so you will know the exact cost with no hidden fees or surprises.
Most sump pumps last between 7 and 10 years with proper maintenance. Submersible pumps, which sit inside the sump pit, typically last 7 to 10 years. Pedestal pumps, with the motor mounted above the pit, can last 20 years or more. If your pump is cycling frequently, making unusual noises, or running constantly, it may be time for a replacement.
Common warning signs include strange grinding or rattling noises, the pump running non-stop, visible rust or corrosion, frequent on-off cycling, and slow water removal from the pit. If your sump pump is more than seven years old and showing any of these symptoms, a replacement is usually more cost-effective than repeated repairs.
A dry basement today does not guarantee a dry basement tomorrow. Water tables are shifting over time, weather patterns are intensifying across southern Ontario, and aging municipal infrastructure increases the risk of sewer backups. The Ontario Building Code has required sump pumps in most new homes since 2017, where gravity drainage is not feasible. Installing one proactively is far less expensive than repairing flood damage after the fact.
At PlumbWize, we understand that in order to stand out above the rest, we need to provide our clients with the full range of high-quality plumbing services at an affordable rate.
