Sump pump systems
Sump pits and drainage, built into the foundation work.
When we underpin, repour a floor or build a new foundation, the sump pit, drainage and backup go in at the same time, sized for the house and the water table.

Questions
Asked about sump pump systems
Why put the sump in during foundation work?
Because the floor is already open. Cutting a pit and running drainage while the slab is out costs far less than coming back to do it later.
Do I need a backup pump?
If losing power for a night could flood your basement, yes. We usually recommend a battery backup, and in Halton a water-powered backup doesn't qualify for the Region's subsidy.
I only need a sump pump. Should I call you?
Call Basement Worx, our waterproofing crew. Same company and the same phone number, set up for sump-only jobs.
