Purpose Driven Restoration & Remodeling will stand by you after the storm and throughout the restoration and remodeling journey.
"Working with PDR has been nothing short of harrowing. For the better part of a year we have had to be our own project manager for our kitchen and living room remodel. Our actual assigned project manager, Cole Vagovich, did 3 site visits for the duration of the project despite several quality issues that came up. The electrical work done in August 2022 was underpowered so in October 2022, they had to return and rewire by cutting into my finished basement ceiling. The repairs have been unfinished going on 6 months. And my lights still flicker. We also had to have the backsplash PDR installed torn out and redone due to several quality issues. Cole Vagovich told me that we were legally obligated to have the tile installer return to try and fix his work. We consulted two attorneys that confirmed this was NOT a law and we are not legally obligated to have the same installer return to fix the tile. In the end, PDR gave us a $3500 credit to have it torn out and reinstalled by another company. It turned out beautifully. However, the demo crew removed the frame around the window so they could tile there, and discovered the inside frame was just resting, unsecured in the opening. This just scratches the surface of the issues we faced with PDR."

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.
