Gene's Plumbing handles sump pump repair across Galena and the surrounding area — licensed, insured and available for emergencies.
The storm that floods a Galena basement is usually the one that also takes the power out, which is exactly why a battery backup matters more than a bigger pump.
Every house handles sump pump repair a little differently depending on its age, and Galena has plenty of both old and new. The fitting, the pipe material and the way the last plumber left it all change what the right repair is.
That is why the Galena truck carries parts for more than one era of plumbing. The sump pump repair job gets finished on the first visit wherever it can be, because a second trip costs you a day and costs us the trust.
What happens from the first call to the final test.
A plumber asks the questions on the phone that narrow it down, so the right parts and the right machine are already on the truck when it arrives.
A gauge goes on the system, a camera goes down the line, or the meter gets checked with everything off — whichever actually answers the question. Nobody quotes a repair on a guess.
If there is a cheaper option that will actually hold, you hear about it. If the cheap option is a patch that fails in six months, you hear that too.
Before the truck goes you see it working — the drain running, the pressure holding, the pit cycling — not just a thumbs up from the driveway.

What homeowners said after this job.
"Water heater let go on a Sunday morning and flooded half the basement. Had someone here inside two hours, new tank in by afternoon, and he hauled the old one off. Price was what he said on the phone."
"Our water smelled like sulfur since we moved in. They tested it instead of guessing, put in the right filtration, and the smell was gone the same day."
"Burst pipe in the crawlspace in January. He had the main off and the section cut out before I finished explaining. Pressure tested it in front of me before he closed it up."
