Protect Your Home with Anchor Home Comfort Sump Pump Installation and Repair
Many homeowners don’t realize they’re at risk of basement flooding until it happens. A strong downpour or quick snowmelt can cause expensive damage—ruining floors and drywall, soaking personal belongings, leading to mould, or weakening your home’s foundation. Anchor Home Comfort helps prevent this with sump pumps that actively remove water and direct it away from your house.
You may require a sump pump if your home is:
- Built in a low-lying area like a valley, near a riverbank, or close to a body of water
- Located somewhere that receives significant seasonal rainfall
- Positioned above a water-saturated ground layer or water table
- Older in construction and more likely to have cracks in the basement floor or walls
New Sump Pumps
Most sump pumps work for 7 to 10 years, depending on how frequently they run, how well they’re maintained, and the quality of the model. If you’re unsure whether you need a replacement, our team can inspect your current pump and provide professional guidance. We’ll also offer a custom sump pump installation price before proceeding.
Backup Sump Pumps
If a power outage hits during a major storm, your sump pump could stop working. Our team can install a battery- or water-powered backup pump that keeps your basement safe when the main pump fails. We’ll show you how to use and care for your backup unit for worry-free protection.
Ejector Pumps
If your home also has an ejector pump to move wastewater toward a sewer or septic system, we can inspect and replace it if necessary. This helps protect your property from sewage backups and keeps your plumbing system in check.
Don’t wait until water starts pouring in—schedule your sump pump installation in Ottawa with Anchor Home Comfort before the next storm.
