Why Sewer Squad Is Toronto’s Go-To Plumbing Company
What Does a Sump Pump Do?
Your sump pump is your basement’s first line of defence. It sits in a pit below your home and pumps water away from your foundation when the water table rises. But when it fails, due to age, clogs, power loss, or motor issues, you’re at real risk of flooding. That’s where we come in. Sewer Squad repairs or replaces sump pumps before disaster strikes. Fast, clean, and done right the first time.
When to Replace Instead of Repair? Sump pumps typically last 7–10 years. If yours is aging, loud, unreliable, or has failed during a storm before, it’s time to consider a replacement. We’ll help you pick the right size and type, and install it with a backup system if needed.
Why Choose Sewer Squad
Fast, reliable help when the water won’t stop rising.
Signs Your Sump Pump Needs Repair
A working sump pump = a dry basement. Watch for these issues.
Sump Pump Repairs and Replacements to Prevent Flooding
Pour a bucket of water into the sump pit. The pump should kick on, remove the water quickly, and then shut off. If it doesn’t, drains slowly, or sounds weird, it may need service.
Your basement can flood fast. That’s why we recommend a backup system (battery or water-powered) to kick in during power outages or pump failures.
If it’s under 7 years old and the motor still runs, a repair may do the trick. But if it’s older, unreliable, or has failed during a storm, a replacement is the safer bet.
Costs vary based on the problem and pump type. We offer upfront pricing and walk you through options before any work begins. Absolutely no surprises
