GET YOUR ESTIMATE NOW!
When heavy rain rolls through Monroe or the snow starts to melt, your sump pump becomes the unsung hero, keeping your basement dry. But if your pump stops working at the wrong time, it can lead to flooded floors, soaked boxes, and thousands in water damage. That’s why local homeowners turn to William Archer & Sons Plumbing for reliable sump pump repair and replacement—they know we do the job right the first time.
Whether your sump pump is acting up or completely dead, we’re here to help. Our family-run team has been serving Monroe for decades, and keeping local basements dry is just one of the things we do best.
What Does a Sump Pump Do?
A sump pump sits in a pit—usually in your basement or crawlspace—and pumps water away from your home when it starts to collect. That’s especially important here in Monroe, where groundwater levels can rise quickly during storms.
The moment water levels rise in the pit, the pump kicks on and pushes that water away from your foundation. It’s a simple concept, but if anything goes wrong with the pump, your home’s at risk.
Signs Your Sump Pump Might Need Help
Sump pumps don’t usually quit without giving you a few warning signs. If you notice any of the following, it’s a good idea to call us in before the next storm:
- Strange noises like grinding or rattling
- The pump cycles constantly, or not at all
- It runs but doesn’t remove water
- Visible rust, corrosion, or clogging
- It’s more than 7–10 years old
Even if it seems to be working, an inspection can catch issues early and give you peace of mind.
Repair vs. Replacement—What’s the Right Move?
Sometimes a sump pump just needs a good cleaning, a float switch adjustment, or a new check valve. Other times, especially with older pumps or those that have failed, replacement is the smarter long-term choice.
We’ll inspect your system, explain exactly what’s going on, and walk you through your options. Our goal is always to find the most cost-effective, reliable solution for your home—no pressure, just honest advice.

Common Sump Pump Questions
- How long should a sump pump last?
With proper maintenance, most pumps last between 7 to 10 years. After that, it’s smart to consider replacement—especially if it’s showing signs of wear. - Should I get a battery backup system?
If your area is prone to power outages during storms (like much of Monroe), a backup system is a great idea. It keeps your pump running when the power’s out, which is often when you need it most. - Can you replace my sump pump quickly if it fails during a storm?
Yes—we offer fast response times for emergencies. Just give us a call, and we’ll make your home a priority.
