“It was a pleasure to meet Jordan. He arrived in time. He is friendly, polite and respectful. He solved my problem quickly and explained my options to me. I highly recommend Jordan and Little Tommy's.”- Deena F.
-
“Always happy with my interactions with Little Tommy's. Highly, highly recommended. One time when my sump pump backup failed, Tommy was able to face-time me on a Sunday to help diagnose the problem. Last week when my Water Heater was leaking, Tommy was able to come out in 30 mins to quote me a replacement and we were back up and running within the next day. Again, they are highly recommended, and would use again!”- Dustin G.
-
“There is a lot to be said about supporting local folks. And over and above that fact Little Tommy's was OUTSTANDING in all aspects of our encounter. From the friendly young lady on the phone, to the quick response, to Jordan the total professional who accomplished the installation. The price was fair and there was a no nonsense quote. I feel totally confident in recommending Little Tommy's.”- Mike L.
-
“Jordan did a great job. Our cast iron pipe going out from our house to the sewer line had broken. We had a backup of the sewage water inside our bathroom on the first floor and the basement. Little Tommy’s Plumbing company fixed the issue by removing the part of the cast iron pipe that was broken. It was about 4 feet under the ground and installed a PVC pipe. They also obtained the village permit for this work on an expedited basis. Great company. Reasonable price. Would highly recommend for plumbing repairs.”- Sudhir P.
-
“Little Tommy's sent Josh to fix my sink. Delightful experience and result. Josh fixed the problem immediately and then imparted very useful advice and pointers to avert plumbing issues. Best company around here.”- Steve O.
-
“Tom from Little Tommy's provided me a thorough and timely quote as I am selling my house. The best thing is that he partnered with a tile and a glass company to provide a comprehensive quote. Great customer service and follow through. I would definitely recommend his service.”- Michael W.
-
“Tyler did a fantastic job! It is such a pleasure to do business with a company who is efficient, fast in an emergency, and is trustworthy. I was left feeling they were completely fair and their service exceeded my expectations!”- Linda S.
-
“They correctly diagnosed and repaired our issue after the first plumber ghosted us and the flooding began again.”- Craig N.
-
“Tom came to my house right away to provide a quote on a somewhat complex basement project. The quote was fair and prompt. The crew was at my house over the course of 3 consecutive days to complete the project, and I could not be happier. Not only did they do a great job (on a not-so-straightforward project), but they were flexible, polite, and patient in working with me to get it done correctly. As a homeowner, it's comforting to have contractors who are willing to explain what they are doing, and they were patient with my naive questions. I would recommend them to anyone and, without question, will be using them for my plumbing needs going forward.”- Tony C.

Consider A Battery Backup Sump Pump
A battery backup sump pump is used to supplement your primary sump pump. If your primary pump fails because of a power outage or a mechanical failure, a backup pump can step in and take over. We highly recommend that all homeowners with a sump pump also invest in a backup pump battery system. These helpful units provide several hours of additional flooding and water damage protection.

What Is A Sump Pump?
A sump pump is a piece of equipment that is used to extract water from a basement or crawl space to prevent flooding. During storm season, a sump pump can be essential in removing rainwater from your basement and sending it back outside. A flooded basement or crawl space is something to avoid because it can lead to water damage, foul odor, mold buildup, and can even be the perfect host for insects and rodents. If you're worried about storm season and whether you're equipped to deal with floods, give our plumbers in Highland Park, IL a call so we can talk about your situation.
How Do Sump Pumps Work?
Sump pumps are pretty simple in principle. There are two primary parts to a sump pump: the sump basin, and the sump pump itself. The sump basin is essentially a collection point where groundwater can collect into a simple basin. This basin is at the lowest point of your basement, where all water will naturally flow toward and collect. Whenever it rains or when groundwater just naturally starts to accumulate around your basement, it will collect in your sump basin.
However, when the water accumulates, it needs to be removed. This is where your sump pump comes in. Your sump pump pumps the collected water back up from your basement out to your main drain line. Because your main drain line is located above your sump basin, it needs a little help from a powered pump in order to get to the height where gravity can take it away as it normally would.
A sump pump doesn’t just run constantly—they remain in a standby position until the sump basin fills to a particular level. This level is determined by a float, or a floating device that is hooked to a power switch. When the float reaches a particular level in your sump basin, the pump switches on and starts pumping the water out of the basin. Once the water level recedes back down to an acceptable level, the pump shuts off and goes back into standby. It’s that simple.
