Sump Pump Repair and Installation

 

When heavy rain hits or snow begins to melt, your sump pump is the first line of defense against basement flooding. Metro Mechanical provides professional sump pump repair and installation services that protect your home and foundation from water damage. If you need an emergency repair or a sump pump replacement, our experienced plumbers can diagnose the problem and recommend a solution.

 

Why a Reliable Sump Pump Is Essential

 

A properly functioning sump pump removes groundwater that accumulates around your home’s foundation. If your sump pump fails water can enter your basement or crawl space causing mold growth and structural damage.

 

Our team understands that sump pumps aren’t just a convenience, they are a necessity for Michigan homeowners dealing with high water tables and unpredictable rainfall. During a power outage standard sump pumps will not operate, we offer a couple of backup systems to insure your sump pump works when the power goes out. Metro Mechanical offers professional sump pump services designed to keep your home dry and protected.

If your sump pump isn’t working it’s important to act quickly. Even a short outage during a storm can result in serious flooding. Metro Mechanical provides expert sump pump repair for all major makes and models, including pedestal and submersible units.

Sump Pump Installation and Replacement

 

If your existing unit is more than 7–10 years old, it may be time to upgrade. Newer models are more efficient, quieter, and equipped with advanced features for better reliability. Metro Mechanical provides professional sump pump installation and replacement to ensure long-lasting performance.

 

Our Installation Process

1. Evaluate your basement and drainage system.
2. Recommend the right pump type and size for your home.
3. Install and test the sump pump for proper discharge and flow.
4. Seal and secure the pit cover for a clean, finished look.

We install both submersible and pedestal sump pumps, as well as battery backup systems for added protection during power outages.

 

Battery Backup and Emergency Systems

 

Many sump pumps only work when the power is on. During severe storms, power failures can make standard pumps useless, exactly when you need them most. Metro Mechanical can install battery backup sump pump systems that automatically activate during power loss to keep your sump pump running when you may need it most. Backup systems provide peace of mind and can save thousands in water damage repairs.

 

Signs You Need a New Sump Pump

 

You may need replacement if:

• The unit runs constantly or fails to start.
• It’s over 10 years old.
• The motor overheats or shuts off unexpectedly.
• You hear grinding or rattling noises.
• Water remains in the pit after cycling.

 

Ignoring these signs can lead to sudden pump failure, often during the next heavy storm.
