When the Sump Pump Stops
The pump goes quiet
A float sticks, a motor burns out, or the storm takes the power.
The pit overflows
Groundwater spills across the floor, into carpet, drywall and stored boxes.
One stuck part, one ruined basement
No household or business deserves to lose a finished basement to one stuck float switch.

Request Sump Pump ServiceBack to Normal in Walker
Walker homeowners and business owners get a pit that drains, a check valve that holds and a backup that carries the system through the next power outage. A pump inside InterNACHI's 7-year service life, pour-tested once a year, meets the spring thaw running.
Every hour a dead pump sits, the pit rises closer to the basement floor.

Where Does Sump Water Go at a Walker Home Without a Storm Lateral?
Onto the owner's own ground. Walker's Stormwater Standards Manual requires lots without a footing-drain lateral to discharge the water without impacting neighboring land or public streets, and it keeps floor drains and laundry off any footing-drain sump system.
What Does the Sump Pump Repair Process Involve?
The process starts with a call or form request to the 24/7 line. On site, the plumber checks power to the pump, then pour-tests the pit: the float lifts, the pump starts, the pit empties and the check valve holds. The plumber inspects the impeller, intake screen and discharge line, and explains the repair or replacement before starting. Replacements cover the pump, check valve and a battery or water-powered backup where the owner chooses one; a water-powered backup includes the backflow device the Grand Rapids Water System specifies. Grand Rapids Michigan Plumber pulls permits where the city requires them, such as for sumps and storm lateral connections inside Grand Rapids.
