Expert Sump Pump Replacement
Sump pumps have a limited lifespan, and an aging or failing unit puts your basement and home at serious risk of water damage. If your sump pump is more than seven to ten years old, repeatedly breaking down, or simply unable to keep up with water intrusion, a professional replacement is the most reliable solution. If you need sump pump replacement in Lakeland, contact 1-Tom-Plumber right away. Our licensed, insured technicians are available 24/7 to install a new system before the next heavy rain. From submersible units to pedestal pumps, here's what we handle:
- Submersible sump pump replacement: Removes the old unit and installs a new submersible pump correctly sized for your pit and water volume.
- Pedestal sump pump replacement: Replaces above-pit pedestal units with proper motor mounting and float switch configuration.
- Discharge line inspection and upgrade: Inspects and replaces aging or improperly routed discharge lines as part of the replacement process.
- Check valve replacement: Installs a new check valve to prevent backflow from re-entering the pit after the pump cycles off.
What To Do Before We Arrive
While our professional plumbing team is on the way, these steps can help reduce damage significantly:
- Do not enter a flooded basement if water is in contact with electrical outlets, panels, or appliances.
- Clear the area around the sump pit so our technicians have easy access for removal and installation.
- Note the size of your existing pump including horsepower rating if visible, to help us size the replacement correctly.
- Document any water damage with photos in case an insurance claim is needed.
