  • Replacing a pump in an existing pit or adding a new pit

  • Backup system: battery, water powered or a second pump
  • Discharge routing, length and freeze protection

Before you hire in River Rouge

Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes

The typical home in River Rouge was built around 1940. Painting, window, siding and remodeling work that disturbs paint in homes built before 1978 must follow the EPA lead-safe (RRP) rule. Ask any contractor for their RRP certification before work starts.

Older plumbing and sewer lines

73% of homes here were built before 1960, when cast iron drains, clay sewer laterals and galvanized supply pipe were standard. A sewer camera inspection before buying or remodeling is cheap insurance.

Permits: check with the River Rouge building department before work starts.

Sump Pump Installation in River Rouge: FAQ

Heavy storms often cause power outages when pumps are needed most. A backup is widely recommended for finished or flood-prone basements.
Cost depends on a new pit or a pump swap, pump type and capacity, battery or water powered backup, the check valve and discharge line, drain tile connections, and a new electrical circuit.
Permit and discharge rules are set locally, so confirm with BSEED in Detroit or your local building department, including where the water may drain. A new circuit needs an electrical permit.
