Sump pump installation and battery backup
Tier A · 26 towns covered
New installs, replacements, and battery backups for when the power goes out during the storm that needed the pump.
It's one of the more common calls we get across Southern Ocean County, NJ.
How this normally shows up
- A pit that fills faster than the pump clears it
- Discharge that empties too close to the house and comes straight back
- A pump that cycles far more often than it used to
- No backup for when the power goes out during the storm that needed it
How it's normally handled
Sizing is the part that gets skipped. A contractor should work out how fast the pit refills under real conditions rather than fitting whatever is on the truck. Battery backup matters more here than inland.
$1,200 – $3,500 — typical range, not a quote. What your home needs can only be settled by a registered contractor who comes out and looks at it.

Towns we cover for this
Only the areas where this work actually applies.
Inland mainland
Flat sandy tracts with a high water table. Crawl spaces and slab are the common foundation types here.

Dredge-and-fill lagoon communities at low elevation with tidal influence on groundwater.
Long Beach Island
Salt air, timber and concrete pilings, and housing stock split sharply between pre- and post-Sandy.
