Straightforward people. Told me the repair on my eleven year old heater would work but probably only buy me a year, gave me both prices, and let me decide. No pressure either way.

Sump Pump Repair & Installation in Davenport, Iowa
A sump pump sits doing nothing for months and then has one job on the night a storm parks over Davenport. That is also the night the power tends to go out, which is why we talk to nearly every Davenport customer about a battery backup rather than only about the pump itself.

Water pressure worth checking
A lot of Davenport homes run higher static pressure than they should, and high pressure quietly shortens the life of every valve, supply line and water heater in the house. It is a cheap thing to measure and an inexpensive thing to correct with a pressure reducing valve.

Toilet was rocking and had been for ages. Broken flange underneath. They repaired it properly rather than just adding another wax ring on top.

Our old cast iron stack was scaled almost shut. They jetted it and the difference was obvious immediately. Showed me before and after footage.

Sump Pump Repair in Davenport: common questions
How long does a sump pump last?
Seven to ten years is typical, less if it cycles heavily. If your Davenport pump is past seven and you have not tested it, pour a bucket of water into the pit and watch what happens before storm season rather than during it.
Do I need a battery backup sump pump?
If your basement is finished, or if losing it would ruin things you care about, yes. Storms take the power out at exactly the moment the pump is needed most, and that is when unbacked pumps flood Davenport basements.
Why is my sump pump running all the time?
Either the water table genuinely is that high, the float is stuck on, or the check valve has failed and the same water keeps draining back into the pit. The third one is common and cheap to fix.
Can you install a sump pump where there is not one now?
Yes, though it means cutting the basement floor for a pit. We look at where the water is coming in first, because sometimes a grading or gutter fix solves a Davenport wet basement for far less money.
Can you tell me what is wrong over the phone?
Often we can narrow it down, and sometimes we can tell you it is something you can fix yourself in five minutes. We would rather do that than send a truck you did not need.
