KBS has been solving issues of Basement Waterproofing since 2003 and we definitely realize the significance of high quality sump pumps. We even tailor the repair plan that is specific to your home or building. Unlike our competitors who use one method and force it on every foundation, we customize your solution so that you can realize your basements potential without fear of future problems. ‘Zoeller Pumps Company’ is our right hand for solving such issues. The quality of their pumps is far above many other manufacturers. It has contributed a lot to our success.

Certain features that a typical sump pump must have are the following:

•    The sump pump must be made of heavy duty materials rather than cheap plastics. It should be made of cast iron. Plastic pumps wear away easily and do not serve its purpose when needed most.
•    The dewatering pump must be elevated to avoid clogging of pipes due to debris. Collected debris could even lead to pump failure. Hence, the elevated pump will help in constant water flow and will not allow any waste to get stuck.
•    A back-up system to consistently provide electricity is essential for constant flow of water. An inverter can be useful at times when there is no electricity.
