Sump Pump Installation in Highland Park
Trust Our Highland Park Plumbers; Call Now
If you have a basement, underground garage, or other room located beneath the ground level of your home, it faces a risk different from any other above-ground room in your home. That risk is underground water—water which absorbs into the ground from rain to irrigation sprinklers and anything in between could all filter down through the soil and eventually into your underground rooms.
A sump pump system’s job is to collect this water and pump it away to your sewer system, where it can be safely disposed of without damaging your home. But if something goes wrong with your sump pump, your underground space will be unprotected, and that’s a recipe for disaster.
Need a sump pump installed in your basement or underground room? Call Little Tommy’s Plumbing Shop at (847) 443-9115 or contact online today.
Should you Repair or Replace Your Sump Pump?
One of the questions which often puzzles homeowners is whether or not they should repair their current pump or replace it outright.
In most cases, a repair will save you money for today, but repairing an old pump may only be a temporary fix until your pump breaks again soon, which means it’s not really the economical choice. Making the decision to repair or replace is an important one, and our experienced Highland Park plumbers can give you our honest opinion as to which option is best for you.
You May Need A New Sump Pump System If:
- Your system is more than 5 years old
- Your system tends to turn on and off intermittently
- Your system refuses to turn on, or turns on and then won’t turn off
- Your pump makes an excessive amount of noise
Even though your pump may be working well today, paying attention to your pump’s operation is important. In most cases, pumps will show signs of wear and tear before they actually give out, and being proactive about your pump’s care could allow you to replace it before a major emergency, such as a pump giving out in the middle of a rainstorm.
How Long Do Sump Pumps Last on Average?
Similar to other important home appliances, sump pumps will eventually need to be replaced. Sump Pumps usually lasts around 3-5 years. Around this time is when you begin noticing your sump pump not running as optimally.

“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.
