Water pipe replacement

Water lines are especially susceptible to damage from mineral build up, ground movement, freezing and thawing, high water pressure, and general deterioration. When these problems occur, your water line can experience anything from reduced water pressure to water discoloration. Ignoring these problems could lead to worse plumbing emergencies later on. Anything from water discoloration to low water pressure could be a sign that your water line is damaged and in need of replacement.

While some pipes can simply be repaired, other call for a complete overhaul of the line. Our licensed plumbing experts can help provide a professional opinion on what is best for your home. For customer convenience, the majority of our water line replacements and installations are accomplished with our trenchless pipe repair method. This method is fast, cost-efficient, minimally invasive, and won’t leave your yard in a complete mess.

Sump pumps

Sump pumps are designed to protect your property from water damage and flooding. At Clear Drains & Waterproofing, we provide efficient sump pump repair and installation services to homeowners. Our team is equipped with the latest technology, and will install a functional and durable sump pump to meet your individual needs.

A sump pump is a submersible pump that sits at the bottom of a sump pit, which is typically installed at the lowest point in your basement or crawl space. Ground water surrounding your home’s foundation is channeled into a perimeter drain system installed at the base of the foundation. Water finds its way into the perforated drain pipes and is quickly diverted to the sump pit. The sump pump, which is triggered by a float switch, removes the water by pumping it to the nearest storm drain, dry well or detention pond. A sump pump turns on only when water inside the sump pit reaches a pre-determined level.
Sump pumps can be hard-wired into a home’s electrical system or be plugged into an outlet. Many sump pumps are equipped with a battery backup to ensure that the pump will work when the power is out. Clear Drains & Waterproofing plumbers will be happy to present you with sump pump and backup options.
