Sump Pump Installation in Franklin & Nashville, TN
Sump pump installation puts in a new submersible sump pump system — pit, pump, check valve, and discharge line — to remove groundwater from a basement or crawlspace before it floods the structure.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does sump pump installation cost?
A submersible sump pump installation runs $1,500–$3,000 (depending on pump and size), depending on the pump and pit size. We confirm the figure after assessing your pit and discharge routing.
What size sump pump do I need?
The right size depends on your pit's typical inflow, measured in gallons per hour. We size the pump to your home rather than installing a one-size-fits-all unit.
Can I discharge my sump pump into the sewer?
No. Metro Nashville code prohibits tying a sump pump into the sanitary sewer. We route discharge to daylight or a storm drain so the system is compliant.
Do you offer battery backup sump pumps?
Battery-backup systems are not currently offered. We can install a properly sized primary submersible pump and advise you on backup options.
