Protect Your Home with Francis Home Environment Sump Pump Installation and Repair
Many homeowners don’t realize the need for a sump pump until after flooding has caused damage. Our systems are designed to detect and redirect excess water, helping you avoid costly repairs to flooring, furniture, and foundations.
You may need a sump pump if you live in:
- Low-lying areas or near lakes, rivers, or wetlands.
- Regions with high precipitation or snowmelt.
- Older homes with foundational vulnerabilities.

New Sump Pumps
Sump pumps generally have a lifespan of 7-10 years. If you’re uncertain about your system’s performance, we can test it for you. If it’s no longer functioning properly, we’ll provide an estimate for installing a new sump pump.
