Sump Pumps
Sump pumps are great for flood prevention and preserving the infrastructure of your home. It is an electric pump, found in the basement of a home, which either pumps water to the outside of the home or into the drainage pipe system. A sump pit is a hole that is dug to collect the water that the sump pump extracts from the inside of the house. These pumps can be useful in any area, but most frequently are found in basements where flooding or precipitation leakage comes through a house’s foundation. Flood prevention is extremely important. Water leakage or flooding in a home can be a very dirty, odorous, and damaging occurrence resulting in water damage and property damage which are both unwanted burdens and very expensive to fix.

Sewage Ejector Pumps
A sewage ejector pump is used to remove sewage from any area in your home that is below your main septic/sewer lines. When waste cannot flow naturally by gravity, it needs to be lifted and discharged into the sewer. By using a sewage ejector pump, solids and liquids will be pumped from the sump or tank up to the sewer. This type of pump is powered by an electric motor and removes waste from a sealed basin. This sealed basin contains solids, usually that can be as large as 2” in diameter.
Areas that most frequently need sewage pumps are bathrooms and laundry rooms in your basement. In order to accurately determine which sewage ejector pump is right for your home, there are many important steps that need to be taken. Sewage systems must be sized after they are selected; there are many important things that need to be determined including system capacity, pump selection, basin size, and more. Selecting and installing sewage pumps, pipes, and systems is a tough job. At Waldman Plumbing, our skilled professionals specialize in sewage ejector pumps and have the knowledge to ensure that all correct measures are taken in selection and installation of your sewage unit.
Signs You Should Replace Your Sump Pump
1. Your system has reached the 10-year mark
In North Shore homes, a sump pump’s average lifespan is 10 years. Our experts can assess your system’s remaining lifespan based on factors like usage, power source, discharge distance, and pump quality.
2. Your sump pump keeps cycling on and off at the wrong times
Frequent cycling indicates potential issues, especially with the float switch. This can harm the pump’s motor and lead to operational problems. If your sump pump fails to operate correctly, it might be time for a replacement or repair.
3. You hear your sump pump constantly running
Prolonged running times suggest an underpowered system struggling to discharge water adequately. Contact us for expert sump pump services, including repair, replacement, and installation in Chicagoland.
4. Your system makes loud, unusual noises
While some noise is normal, loud rattling, grinding, or thudding sounds could indicate motor or impeller issues. Call our experts to diagnose the problem, and if needed, consider sump pump installation services.

Typical Sump Pump Problems
Sump pumps are designed to keep your basement dry, but like any mechanical system, they can experience issues over time. Identifying and addressing common sump pump problems early can save you from costly repairs and potential water damage. If you notice any of the following issues, it’s time to call Waldman Plumbing and Heating for professional sump pump repair or replacement services.
Common sump pump problems include:
- No Water Entering the Pit: This usually happens if the drain tile system is installed incorrectly, preventing water from reaching the pump. Our team can inspect your system and make the necessary adjustments to ensure proper drainage.
- Clogged Pump or Float Switch: Dirt and debris can clog the sump pump if it doesn’t have a lid, causing it to shut off completely or run continuously. Regular maintenance can help prevent clogging and extend the life of your system.
- Pump Overwhelmed by Water Volume: A sump pump that isn’t powerful enough may struggle to keep up during heavy rain, leading to basement flooding. Upgrading to a high-capacity pump with a battery backup can provide better protection.
