Lift stations and duplex sets
Commercial stations are usually two submersible pumps on rails so one can be pulled while the other carries the pit. We pull, inspect impellers and seals, and put a working rotation back in service.
Commercial sewer pump service
A sewer alarm is stressful, and you shouldn’t have to sort it out alone. We service lift stations, ejectors, and grinder pumps for restaurants, apartments, warehouses, and homes with a bathroom below the sewer line.

If any of these match, you’re in the right place. If it’s something else, just say so when you call.
- A high-level alarm that will not clear
- One pump of a duplex set has been dead for weeks
- The basin smells, or sewage is coming back at a floor drain
- The pump runs and does not empty the pit
- Floats are tangled, or the panel trips on overload
What a visit looks like
Sewage ejectors and grinders
Below-grade bathrooms, tenant improvements, and older buildings often depend on an ejector or a grinder because gravity never reached the street. Those pumps live in a basin under the floor. We service the pump, the check, and the alarm.
Controls, not just the wet end
A new pump won’t help for long if the floats or the contactor have failed. We include the controls in the visit so the alarm doesn’t come right back.
What we need on site
It helps if we can reach the basin, turn the power off safely, and hear which fixtures drain to that pit. If the lid is buried under storage, the first visit may just be about finding the station — and that’s okay.

Common questions
Do you jet or replace sewer laterals?
We focus on the pump and its controls. If the line itself is blocked or collapsed, that’s drain cleaning or underground work, and we’ll tell you kindly if that’s what we’re seeing.
Can you work a station that is in alarm right now?
Yes, please call. Tell us the address, what the alarm is doing, and whether anything is already overflowing. We’ll let you know the soonest we can be there. Try not to keep resetting a breaker on a pump that won’t turn.
Residential ejectors too?
Yes. Homes with a bathroom below the sewer line, or a grinder because the sewer is uphill, use the same kind of equipment. We’re happy to help with those too.
