Pump Services

We service a wide variety of pumps including submersible sump pumps, sewage ejectors, grinder pumps, transfer pumps and centrifugal units, as well as packaged pump stations and commercial pump arrays. Our engineers also maintain control panels, float switches, non return valves, check valves and alarm systems to ensure reliable automated operation. Whether domestic, commercial or industrial installations we diagnose electrical and mechanical faults, perform preventative maintenance and complete replacements or upgrades. We work with numerous manufacturers and can source compatible spare parts, advise on improved capacity and efficiency and provide ongoing maintenance plans. Remote monitoring and alarm integration are available.

Our emergency response team operates twenty four seven to tackle pump failures and flooding incidents quickly and professionally. Response times depend on your location and workload but critical sites receive priority to reduce flood risk and property damage. On arrival our engineers carry out a rapid risk assessment, pump out standing water if required and implement temporary measures to protect the site. We endeavour to repair faults on site using common spare parts or fit a temporary replacement to restore operation immediately. If a permanent replacement is necessary we provide a transparent quote and clear timescale, and follow up.

Yes we install battery backup systems and dual pump configurations to deliver resilience during power outages and equipment failures. A battery backup provides temporary power so the pump continues to operate through short mains interruptions, protecting basements and critical areas. Dual pump arrangements use a duty standby setup where pumps alternate to balance wear and automatically take over if the primary unit fails, increasing capacity during heavy inflow. Our engineers assess site demands, recommend suitable battery capacity or pump sizes and install compliant control panels, alarms and wiring. All installations include commissioning, testing and clear user guidance, and ongoing support.

Listen for unusual noises such as grinding or rattling and watch for changes in cycling behaviour, which often signal mechanical wear or blockages. Other common signs include the pump running continuously, failing to start, tripped circuit breakers, or visible leaks and damp patches around the pump station. Foul odours from standing water or alarms indicating high water levels are further indicators of trouble. Reduced discharge flow during heavy rain suggests impaired performance. If you notice any of these symptoms arrange a professional inspection promptly to prevent overflow, mitigate property damage and avoid more costly repairs later. We offer immediate assistance.

Most domestic sump pumps should be serviced annually, while commercial or high-use installations typically need checks every six months. Regular servicing reduces the risk of unexpected failure by identifying worn bearings, electrical faults, float switch problems and debris buildup before they cause stoppages. During a service our engineers will empty and clean the sump pit, test the pump under load, inspect discharge piping and non return valves, verify electrical supply and control settings, and replace or lubricate worn components as required. Routine maintenance also helps preserve manufacturer warranties, improves energy efficiency and extends the operational life of the pump system.
