Tempe homeowners call Liberty for sump pump & sewage ejector pump services because we're local to the Valley, licensed, and answer the phone 24/7. Tempe is an established East Valley city, mid-century and 1970s-80s homes near ASU with newer infill scattered through. That older housing stock means galvanized and aging-copper repipes, sewer-root work, and plenty of rental-property plumbing. We've done a lot of it. When we look at your place, you'll get the truth about what's failing, your options laid out plain, and a fair price upfront before we start.
Tempe's plumbing reality is defined by age and turnover. The neighborhoods ringing ASU, from the mid-century ranches near downtown to the 1970s and 80s builds in south Tempe, were plumbed with galvanized steel and early copper that's now corroding from the inside out. Galvanized lines clog with rust until pressure drops to a trickle, and we still pull original galvanized out of Tempe homes weekly. Add decades of rental turnover, where deferred maintenance compounds because no owner-occupant catches the slow problems, and you get homes where a single repipe finally resolves years of mystery low-pressure and discolored-water complaints.

How a Tempe sump pump & sewage ejector pump services call goes
Match the pump to the job
A sump pump moves groundwater and storm seepage; a sewage ejector pump moves wastewater from fixtures below the main sewer line and needs a sealed basin and proper venting. We confirm which one you actually need and size it to your inflow, not a one-size box off a shelf.
Install for reliability when it counts
We set the basin, plumb a proper discharge with a check valve so water doesn't run back, vent ejector basins correctly, and test the float switch under real conditions. Where flooding would be costly, we talk through battery backup so a monsoon power outage doesn't equal a flooded basement.
Test under load and document
We don't just plug it in and leave. We fill the basin, watch the float trip, confirm the discharge flows and the check valve holds, and show you how to test it yourself before each monsoon season.
