First Choice Waterproofing Installs the Highest Quality Primary Sump Pumps and Battery Backup Sump Pumps on The Market.
Install Top-Quality Sump Pump Systems in New Jersey
Sump pump installation in New Jersey is a crucial part of our interior basement waterproofing systems in the area. It removes water from the lowest point in your home, like your basement, and pumps it out into a drainage space. This motorized device helps to avoid flooding, water damage, and mold growth.
First Choice Waterproofing uses the market’s highest-quality and most reliable sump pump systems. Our specialized sump pump sits in a rugged, heavy-duty polyethylene liner that will not crack or cave in. An exclusive “pump ring” on the liner’s floor keeps the pump centered. We take pride in our sump pump installation and system products because of specialized features, including:
- Better float switches that are less likely to fail
- Motors with more horsepower
- A battery backup system with a high pump capacity
- Eliminates odors and smells
- Polycarbonate see-through lid
- Hinged lid for easy pump access
- Corrosion and moisture resistant
- Radon sealed to contain radon gases
Not all sump pumps are the same. If the sump pump is of low quality, it may not pump out the water fast enough, and your basement can still flood even if you have a working sump pump. In this case, you might have to get a new sump pump installed. At First Choice Waterproofing, we always install top-quality sump pumps as part of our basement waterproofing service. Our sump pump can handle hundreds of gallons of water and save you thousands of dollars worth of damage to your basement.
How Can Sump Pump Help Protect Your Home Foundation?
Basement flooding is an extremely frustrating and costly problem. A sump pump is an extremely useful device for your home that works together with a basement waterproofing system to prevent basement flooding.
During a rainstorm, water soaks into the soil around your home. As a result, the water accumulates under the foundation. That’s why we always install a sump basin under the basement or at the lowest point of your house so that it can collect the water. Once its basin collects enough water, the float switch (i.e., contact liquid level sensor) triggers and the pump activates. Then, water gets pushed up to a drainage area through a discharge line. In this way, a sump pump removes water from your home and keeps your basement dry and your foundation secure.

Battery Backup Sump Pumps
We always recommend installing sump pumps with battery backups in New Jersey. Given that the city is a flood-prone zone, battery backup sump pumps provide added security in case of a power outage. The battery backup powers a float switch (i.e., sensor switch) that operates the sump pump even when the main source, such as electricity or gas lines, is cut off.
You should consider our battery backup sump pump if you are waterproofing your basement because they:
- Give you peace of mind during heavy rain or power outages.
- Save thousands of dollars by stopping water from entering the basement.
- Offer protection against primary sump pump failure.
Feel free to ask any questions about the installation of a battery backup sump pump in New Jersey for your home.
How Installing a Sump Pump Helps with Basement Waterproofing?
With the help of a sump pump, you can avoid all sorts of water damage in your basement and maintain a healthier home. Here are some of the top benefits of the installation of a sump pump in the home:
a. Prevents Basement Flooding
Flooding and standing water can damage belongings that are in your basement. Moisture also poses an electrical hazard, potentially causing shocks or even fires. Another consequence of basement flooding is mold or mildew growth. A sump pump acts as a silent guardian by pumping out the excess underground water without letting it accumulate in the basement.
b. Prevents Mold Growth
Damp basements are breeding grounds for mold. Mold spores can cause allergies or other respiratory problems. Mold also feeds on organic materials like wood and drywall, weakening the basement’s structure. A sump pump strengthens your basement waterproofing system by efficiently removing water and helping to remove excess moisture that leads to mold. It also helps to protect your health and the integrity of the basement.
c. Prevents Structural Damage
Constant water pressure against your foundation causes cracks, bowing walls, and water seepage. A sump pump, combined with a waterproofing system, acts as a shield and prevents water from accumulating around your home’s foundation. As the sump pump effectively drains the water, it also saves you from expensive and extensive foundation repairs down the line.

On average, a sump pump lasts for about 10 years. Some sump pumps, like pedestal sump pumps, can even last for 30 years with proper maintenance. The factors that shorten the lifetime of a sump pump are the frequency of use, quality of the pump, and maintenance. So, always invest in a good-quality pump and have it installed professionally. For added protection against power outages, you can also consider a battery backup system.
