Why New Orleans Homes Need Sump Pumps

New Orleans’ below-sea-level elevation, high water table, and heavy seasonal rainfall combine to put constant pressure on basements, crawl spaces, and low-lying yards. Even homes without a true basement often have crawl spaces or low points where groundwater collects during and after storms. A properly sized sump pump, backed up with a battery system for power outages, is one of the most reliable ways to keep that water out of your home’s foundation and living space.

Most sump pumps last around 7 to 10 years with regular use. If your pump is approaching that age, or has already needed multiple repairs, replacement is usually more cost-effective than continuing to patch an aging unit.

Yes, if you don’t already have one. Sump pumps run on electricity, and heavy storms that trigger flooding are often the same storms that cause power outages. A battery backup keeps your pump running when you need it most.

We offer same-day service for sump pump failures throughout Greater New Orleans. A failed pump during active rainfall is treated as an emergency call.

Yes. We evaluate your crawl space or basement, identify the lowest point where water collects, and install a properly sized pit and pump system from scratch.
