Properly sized and installed submersible sump pumps with battery backup — protecting Calgary basements from groundwater and storm flooding.
Any home that has experienced basement water entry, sits in a low-lying area, has older clay tile weeping tile, or is being fitted with an interior drainage system needs a sump pump system. A drainage system without a pump is just a channel that fills with water. The pump is what makes the system work.
We install complete sump pump systems including: properly sized sump pit with liner, submersible pump sized for your home's drainage requirements, check valve on discharge line, discharge pipe routed to appropriate exit point, and — critically — a battery backup system that activates automatically during power failures.
Calgary's most severe flooding events happen during the same storms that knock out power. A pump that stops working when you need it most is worse than no pump at all — it gives you false confidence. Every sump installation we do includes a battery backup recommendation, and we strongly encourage every customer to accept it.
Sump pumps typically last 7–10 years. If your existing pump is approaching this age — especially if it's the original pump from when the house was built — consider proactive replacement before it fails during a critical event. We service, inspect, and replace existing sump systems throughout Calgary with minimal disruption.
A complete sump system collects groundwater before it reaches the floor and evacuates it outside — with battery backup for when you need it most.
