How to Choose the Right Sump Pump for Hamilton Homes

Hamilton’s mix of older homes and newbuilds demands specific flood prevention systems. Here’s what to look for:

🔹Submersible vs. Pedestal Pumps

  • Submersible sump pumps are ideal for high water volume and quieter operation
  • Pedestal pumps are budget-friendly and easier to maintain

🔹Battery Backup is Non-Negotiable

With frequent power outages in Hamilton’s stormy seasons, a battery backup sump pump is essential to keep your basement dry.

🔹 Local Expertise Matters

Not all homes in Hamilton need the same setup. We assess slope, discharge distance, foundation type, and more before recommending a solution.
