Sump Pump Repair, Installation & Backup Systems
A sump pump helps move unwanted water away from your home before it can cause flooding, moisture damage, mold, or structural problems. When heavy rain hits or groundwater rises, your sump pump needs to be properly sized, installed, and ready to run.
Heaton Plumbing provides sump pump installation, repair, maintenance, sump pit installation, and battery backup systems for Houston-area properties.

Why a Reliable Sump Pump Matters
A sump pump is designed to remove water that collects in a sump basin and move it away from your home. If the pump fails during a storm or high-water event, water can rise quickly and cause damage.
Proper sizing, correct discharge routing, routine maintenance, and backup protection all help reduce the risk of pump failure when you need the system most.
Power Outage Protection
Storms can knock out power at the exact time your sump pump is needed most. A battery backup system helps keep water moving when the main pump or power supply fails.
Signs Your Sump Pump Needs Service
| Problem | Possible Cause | Recommended Service |
|---|---|---|
| Pump will not turn on | Power issue, float switch failure, or pump failure | Sump pump repair |
| Pump runs constantly | Stuck float, undersized pump, or heavy inflow | Inspection and sizing review |
| Water rises in pit | Clog, pump failure, or discharge issue | Repair or replacement |
| Pump fails during storms | Power outage or overwhelmed primary pump | Battery backup installation |
Sump Pump Battery Backup Installation
A battery backup sump pump is designed to operate when the main pump stops working, the power goes out, or water inflow exceeds what the primary pump can handle. This backup protection can be especially important during heavy storms.

Simple Sump Pump Cycle Check
You can periodically test whether your sump pump is responding properly:
- Lift the sump pit lid carefully.
- Slowly pour water into the basin.
- The float should rise and trigger the motor.
- The pump should run until the water level lowers.
- If nothing happens, schedule sump pump service.
