Not sure whether to call for Mendota sump pump repair or replacement? Perhaps your sump pump is behaving unusually, and you’re considering whether it’s time to have it inspected.

Common Problems of a Failing Sump Pump
Even when your sump pump system is still keeping water from pooling in your house, there are common warning signs Triple Service Inc knows to look for. If you notice any of the following, a problem may be present & it’s time to call the professionals at Triple Service Inc for a broken sump pump repair:
Sump Pump Running Continuously?
Is your sump pump unit always on, running during all hours of the day & never stops? Your home’s sump pump may be facing a stuck float switch, a float switch out of adjustment, or even a pump cord & float switch plugged in separately.
Sump Pump Starts & Stops Too Often?
If your home sump pump is switching on and off many times a minute, it could be a sign that water is coming back into the pit from a pipe discharging water. Best to call the sump pump repair experts at Triple Service Inc before your sump pump problem escalates.
Sump Pumps Prone to Excess Amounts of Water?
If your sump pump motor hums but little or no water flows there could be multiple issues at fault with your sump pump. The issue may be the suction intake screen getting partially or fully blocked, the discharge pipe could be leaking, or the impeller is badly damaged. All of these could be the result of too much stress on your sump pump unit & requires a repair service. Call a Triple Service Inc sump pump repair expert right away to have your home’s sump pump professionally diagnosed & repaired.
Does Your Sump Pump Eject Water but Shuts Off Early?
Is your sump pump working for a bit but shutting off before all water is pumped out? You could be facing a float switch that is out of adjustment or has broken down & is not usable anymore. Another cause may be that your pump is overheating and shutting off because of thermal overload. The first thing you can check is ensuring that your sump pump is plugged directly into the outlet with no extension cables. Mendota, Illinois Sump pump units that don’t get the proper electrical flow work less efficiently & cause a dramatic decrease in how much water it can pump out.
No matter the problem, our Mendota sump pump repair experts will determine what needs to be repaired before any work is done so you know exactly what solution is best for your home’s sump pump.

Mendota Sump Pump Installation & Replacement
If you’re installing sump pump in Mendota for the first time or replacing your current one, we’ll always evaluate things before we get started, determining the optimal pump placement or confirming that the current location is suitable. We consider several factors, including:
- Proximity to rivers or low-lying areas
- Typical groundwater levels
- Nearby geographical features such as hills
- Soil composition beneath your home, which can vary in its ability to absorb water
- The age and configuration of local storm sewer systems, which may pose additional risks
- The general necessity for sump pumps in rural properties
Afterwards, we work with you to select the best pump based on local weather patterns, your budget, and other criteria. Once you choose a pump, we install it promptly, ensuring you’re prepared no matter how severe the weather gets.
How Much Does a New Sump Pump Installation Cost
The cost to install a new sump pump in your home will vary depending on what you need. Replacing an existing sump pump is less costly than installing a new sump pump as it does not typically require digging, electrical upgrades or additional plumbing related costs. In addition, there are several other factors that can affect the overall cost of a sump pump installation or replacement:
What Type of Sump Pump Do I Need?
There are two types of sump pump: submersible & pedestal. Each type of sump pump has it benefits & costs so call a Triple Service Inc plumber today to get expert advice on installing the right sump pump for you.
Type of Floor in Your Homes’ Basement
No sump pump installed currently? Then a plumber will have to dig a hole in your basement flooring in order to install your sump pump. Gravel is an easy dig but cement or concrete will likely add to the labor costs as well as cleanup costs. At Triple Service Inc, you can expect a full sump pump installation cost estimate so you won’t get any surprises before we do any work on your home.
Where Will Your New Sump Pump Be Installed?
Your new sump pump will be installed in your Illinois homes’ basement, but where exactly in your basement will factor into your sump pumps’ installation cost. Both submersible & pedestal sump pumps are installed differently and have different placement requirements. Don’t fret – all of these factors will be reviewed in your sump pump installation estimate.
No matter your Mendota sump pump needs, our expert plumbers will determine the best sump pump for you with professional advice on your install before any work is done. You’ll know exactly what solution is best at a reasonable cost for your new sump pump; that’s our guarantee.
Why You Should Invest in a Sump Pump Backup
Backup systems, consisting of a secondary, battery-operated sump pump, are highly recommended though not mandatory. They automatically activate if the primary system fails during a power outage or breakdown, and they assist in keeping your basement dry during unusually high water levels.
