If your basement or crawl space suffers from water intrusion—whether during storms or on dry days—it may be time to rethink your home’s water management system. We offer professional sump pump installation services to help homeowners across Virginia protect their homes from flooding, mold growth, and long-term structural damage.
Whether you need a new sump pump installed or your current system replaced, our team brings over 30 years of waterproofing expertise to every project.
A properly installed sump pump is one of the most effective ways to protect your home from water damage. Without a system in place, water can accumulate around your foundation and eventually seep into your basement or crawl space—leading to costly repairs, ruined belongings, and potential health hazards like mold and mildew.
We install high-performance sump pump systems that include:
Even if you already have a sump pump, it may be time to upgrade.
Most units have a lifespan of 5-10 years and can fail without warning. We offer sump pump replacements and ongoing maintenance to keep your system functioning properly year-round.
There are two main types of sump pumps we install, each with its own advantages depending on your property’s needs:
Submersible pumps sit at the bottom of the sump pit and operate underwater. They’re quieter and more efficient for homes that experience frequent water issues, and their sealed design helps prevent motor damage.
Pedestal pumps remain above the waterline, with a long pipe that draws water from the bottom of the pit. These pumps are ideal for smaller sump pits and homes with less frequent water exposure. They also offer easier access for maintenance.
All our systems use float switches that automatically detect water levels and activate the pump when needed. Our team will help you choose the best type for your home, taking into account the size of your basement, typical water volume, and your long-term plans for the space.
Power outages are common during major storms at the very time your sump pump is needed most. That’s why many homeowners choose to install a battery backup sump pump system for added peace of mind.
A backup pump kicks in automatically when your main pump fails or loses power, continuing to protect your home even during emergencies. Our backup systems feature:
We’ll help you select the right battery backup option based on your needs, home size, and typical storm conditions in your area.

In a half hour the owner told us more about our basement issues than the previous 7 “experts” from other companies combined! He knows his stuff. He is honest. He is direct. He explained to us the facts, with a wealth of knowledge and experience. He told us our options and gave estimates for each. I could not have asked for anything more from an initial consultation. He earned our trust.
