If you have a basement in St. Tammany Parish, you almost certainly have (or need) a sump pump. We install new pumps, replace failed ones, add battery backup systems, and respond fast to sump pump emergencies during heavy rain. Most installs done same day.
Most sump pumps fail at the worst possible moment: a heavy rainstorm, often with a power outage. A flooded basement averages $10,000-$30,000 in damage and weeks of cleanup. We install reliable primary pumps sized to your water table, plus battery backup so power outages don't flood you. And when yours fails, we respond fast — we've taken plenty of late-night calls from Abita Springs homeowners with rising water.
7-10 years for most submersible pumps. If yours is over 8 years old, plan to replace it BEFORE it fails — not after. Replacement before failure costs $700-$1,100. Replacement after a flooded basement costs $700-$1,100 plus $10,000+ in damage.
Strongly recommended in St. Tammany Parish. Power outages frequently happen during the same storms that need your pump most. A battery backup keeps the pump running for 6-12 hours during an outage — usually enough to ride out the storm.
Standard 1/3 HP submersible: $700-$1,100 installed. Premium 1/2 HP cast iron: $1,000-$1,500. With battery backup added: $1,500-$2,200 total. We size the pump to your basement square footage and water table depth.
Either a stuck float switch (cheap fix), a check valve failing and letting water flow back into the pit, or genuinely high groundwater that needs a bigger pump. We can diagnose in 15 minutes.
Burst pipe, water heater out, or drain backing up — call us anytime. Fast response in Abita Springs and across St. Tammany Parish.
