Water bill nearly doubled and I could not find anything wrong. They found a slab leak under the hallway with a listening device, cut one small square of flooring, and fixed it. I was braced for a lot worse.

Spring thaw is when sump pumps get tested
A sump pump in Sioux City sits idle for months and then has one important night. That is usually also the night the power flickers. We check the float, the check valve and the discharge line, and we talk to most Sioux City homeowners about a battery backup, because an unbacked pump and a storm outage is how basements flood here.

Garbage disposal was humming and I assumed it was dead. He freed the jam, hit the reset, and did not charge me for a new unit I did not need. Honest is the word.

Fair price, showed up when they said, and did not leave a mess. I do not know how to review a plumber more highly than that.

Sump Pump Repair in Sioux City: common questions
How long does a sump pump last?
Seven to ten years is typical, less if it cycles heavily. If your Sioux City 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 Sioux City 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 Sioux City wet basement for far less money.
Do you work on commercial properties in Sioux City?
Yes. Restaurants, salons, clinics, offices, churches and multi-tenant buildings across Sioux City. We schedule outside trading hours at no extra cost so a repair does not cost you a day of business.
