"I had recently moved into a house with my family and had a few relatively easy fixes however, couldn't find the time to take care of them so I hired Countryside to come out and fix them. He did a very good job of explaining the reasons for the repairs, potential issues that might come up down the road with some of the older parts that weren't replaced, and explained how he would fix them as well as these current issues so that I could do them at a later date."

"Worst customer service I've ever received. Burton advertised a $149 snake for a main line. My wife called around 12'oclock noon to schedule an appointment. We were told a technician would be at our house between 1:00pm and 4:00pm. They never showed up. We called around 5:00pm and asked if there was still someone coming. They assured there was. No one showed up. Around 6:00pm we called back and asked if there was still someone coming. We were told this time an emergency had happened and a different tech would be out shortly. No one showed up. We called back at 7:00pm again to find out if someone was coming... The dispatchers put me hold, offered to send someone out for an after hours fee of $249 and if we wanted to get the $149 rate we would have to wait until Monday. I asked if there was any kind of compensation or discount since they wasted my whole day, they said no. I asked if I could speak to a manager and conveniently there wasn't anyone available. The dispatcher then very sarcastically said, "OK then honey, have a good night." With folks like that I'd hate to see what kind of actual work they perform. RUN!! Go somewhere else. Very disrespectful and unprofessional."

Runtime varies based on battery size and cycling frequency. Most battery backups run for six to 24 hours, depending on battery capacity and pump usage. The system activates only when water reaches trigger levels, potentially extending actual operation time beyond rated hours. For locations with frequent extended outages, consider keeping a spare battery or supplemental power source available.
Yes, most existing sump pump systems can be enhanced with battery backup capability. You'll need compatible components that work with your current setup. Installation involves connecting the backup unit to your discharge pipe and setting up the battery system. Professional installation (costing $45 to $200 per hour) helps ensure proper system integration and safe handling of electrical components.
A battery backup system provides valuable protection for homes in areas prone to power outages during storms. With an average cost of $900, these systems help prevent potentially significant water damage and related expenses. Even preventing a single flooding incident can justify the investment, especially considering standard homeowner insurance policies don’t often cover flood damage.
Regular maintenance includes testing system operation by disconnecting the primary pump and verifying that the backup activates properly. Inspect battery terminals for corrosion and clean as needed. Check battery charge levels according to manufacturer recommendations. Standard batteries require replacement every three to five years, while deep-cycle batteries with proper maintenance can last up to 10 years. An annual professional inspection (approximately $250) helps ensure reliable operation.
