"Very impressed with the service provided - even arrived early! Brilliant!!"
Here we have 2 pictures of the same pumping system that has benefited from a “Clean & Check” service from the Basement Sump & Pump Co
The difference is plain to see! All the components of the system on the right hand side were “Cleaned & Checked” resulting in peace of mind for the home owner that the pumping station was going to provide faithful service for another 12 months.
An annual ‘Clean and Check’ for sewage pumps costs £149 – a small price to pay for the peace of mind in knowing your sewerage pump is working just as well as the first day it was installed. To arrange a ‘Clean and Check’ call 0800 019 9949 or complete our on-line request form. For advice on what not to flush down the lavatory and hints on how to avoid macerator toilet problems check out our macerator advice page.
At the Basement Sump And Pump Co we will service the pumps nobody likes to think about.
The photos below show a sewage pump that has not been serviced for over 2 years, the client only called us out when he thought there maybe a problem. As it was, when our engineer arrived at the property the sewage was only a few inches from flooding into the property and after it had had a service.
The moral to this tale? Its never a good idea to leave a ‘Clean & Check’ to the last minute, as the owner of the property has now realised and has now signed up to our annual ‘Clean and Check’ scheme to make sure he doesn’t find himself in that predicament again!

At the Basement Sump and Pump Co we are receiving an ever increasing number of enquiries about macerator pumps. To help people looking at having a macerator pump installed and indeed people who already have one installed here is our brief guide to some key points about macerators.
A macerator looks very much like a standard toilet and occupies about the same amount of floor space. But instead of draining the flushed water down into the floor, the system transports it through a pump contained in a small box, typically located behind the toilet and against the wall.
Macerator pumps interact with toilets in, for example, basement situations. The macerator decreases the size of the waste through grinding any waste. The razor sharp blades contained in the macerator pump grind the semi-solid waste allowing for an easy and quick flow. As macerators contain a pump they are ideal for toilets within basements as the waste can be pumped to the necessary exit point.
The best way to explain this is to show you! Here we see an example of a Saniflow system system:
In all toilet systems the waste water collected from the macerator contains solid organic residues, toilet paper and other similar solids. If there are any unsuitable materials that have been flushed away may clog the mechanisms and cause a blockage. Items such as baby wipes, paper towels, sanitary towels, carrier bags and condoms can cause blockages.
There are few things in life more unpleasant than the thought of having to unblock a clogged macerator. Trust the Basement Sump & Pump Co to keep your macerator in tip top condition with an annual ‘Clean & Check’. We will check all the major components of the system and ensure that there are no blockages to impede its performance.

I know it’s not nice to think about……but yes, even sewage pumps also need to be serviced regularly to ensure they are performing as they should. Our sewage pump engineer recently visited a property in London where the sewage pump for the lavatory in the basement was playing up and as a result causing distress to the home owner.
After a thorough “Clean & Check” and full power-wash down the sewage pump was as good as new and running just as it should do! The sewage pump had gone without a service for over 2 years but is now on a regular maintenance schedule to ensure it remains trouble free.
