Advanced Sump Pump Systems and Basement Protection
Serving Madison Heights & Surrounding Areas
Comprehensive Sump System Solutions
Engineered Protection for Dry, Healthy Spaces
Yard Drainage of Michigan designs complete, code-compliant sump systems that manage groundwater before it becomes a problem. A reliable system is more than a pump—it includes a properly sized basin, sealed lid, high-water alarm, check valve, dedicated discharge line, and optional secondary or backup pump. We assess inflow rates, head height, and discharge routing to match the right submersible or pedestal pump to your home. From durable cast-iron pumps and radon-ready lids to quiet, spring-loaded check valves and smart monitoring, every component is selected to work together and keep critical areas dry.
Effective sump systems relieve hydrostatic pressure on foundations, protect finished spaces and storage, and guard mechanicals from moisture. Our approach minimizes noise, optimizes energy use, and improves indoor air quality with sealed, vent-ready lids. With clear proposals, clean installations, and our “We Keep it Dry” promise, you get long-term peace of mind. Ask about lifetime warranties available on select systems and components to maximize value and reduce the risk and cost of future water damage.
Right-Sized Pumps, Clean Work, Lasting Results
Our installation begins with a thorough assessment of drainage patterns, slab elevation, and foundation details. We size basins for proper residence time, calculate pump capacity for peak inflow, and account for head pressure and friction loss in the discharge. Crews protect finishes, core-drill cleanly, and set sumps at the ideal location for performance and service access. We provide dedicated electrical circuits as needed, seal lids for safety and radon mitigation, and add freeze protection and air gaps to safeguard the discharge line in cold weather.
Upgrades target the most common failure points. We replace undersized or aging pumps, add secondary pumps for redundancy, and install battery or water-powered backups with smart alarms and Wi‑Fi notifications. Discharge lines are reworked with full-port unions, silent check valves, and properly sloped, freeze-resistant piping. Where appropriate, we integrate interior drain tile, exterior tie-ins, and backwater protection. Detailed commissioning tests confirm capacity and reliability, and we review maintenance best practices. Lifetime warranties available on select installations.
Proactive Care That Prevents Flooding
Preventive maintenance is the best defense against surprise failures. Our service includes cleaning silt and iron bacteria from the pit, testing floats and sensors, verifying check valve operation, exercising shutoffs, and confirming discharge flow. We test alarms, inspect power supplies and chargers, and load-test backup batteries. For smart systems, we verify connectivity and alert settings so you’re notified before water levels rise.
When problems occur, we diagnose issues quickly—short cycling, stuck or waterlogged floats, clogged impellers, air-locked lines, tripped breakers, and failing bearings or seals. We stock common pumps, switches, valves, and fittings to resolve most issues on the first visit. Clear findings, upfront pricing, and options are provided before work begins, and we leave the work area clean and ready.
Storms don’t wait, and neither do we. Our rapid-response team offers same-day and priority scheduling during severe weather, along with temporary bypass pumps when needed. We can stabilize a failing system, replace critical components, and verify performance under load so your home stays protected through the next round of rain or snowmelt.
