Our Story
Sump Pump Repair Experts Rooted in Akron
Rick Sanders started Akron Pump Pros to handle sump pump issues that hit Summit County homes hard during the humid continental winters, when freezing ground and heavy melt push water into older basements across Highland Square, Goodyear Heights, and Kenmore. Working from the shop at 73 E Exchange St, he focuses on the clay-heavy soils and sloped terrain that send water toward foundations in Ellet, Firestone Park, North Hill, and West Hill, where many houses predate modern drainage.
The team serves nearby Cuyahoga Falls and Kent the same way they cover Middlebury and the University of Akron area, showing up with the right parts for the aging sump systems common in these neighborhoods. Rick keeps the schedule straightforward so homeowners in Stan Hywet Hall's vicinity or near the Akron Zoo can reach someone who knows the local water patterns without waiting days.

Scheduling the Visit
Reach Akron Pump Pros at our base on E Exchange St to set up an appointment within our Mon–Fri 8am–6pm or Sat 9am–2pm window, allowing quick response for homes in Highland Square or Kenmore where older foundations meet Summit County’s freeze-thaw cycles.
On-Site Inspection
We examine the existing sump pump and basin in your property, noting how the hilly terrain around North Hill or West Hill channels water and how cold winters increase the risk of impeller freeze or switch failure.
Diagnosis and Repair
After locating the issue we complete the needed Sump Pump Repair using parts matched to local soil saturation and heavy spring runoff common near the University of Akron and Akron Zoo areas.
Testing and Handover
We run the unit through cycles to confirm it manages both humid summer downpours and winter melt, then review operation with you before leaving the site in Ellet or Firestone Park.
What Akron, OH Customers Say
“After heavy spring rains my sump pump in the basement near the Cuyahoga River kept running nonstop and finally quit. Akron Pump Pros replaced the entire unit with a Zoeller 1/2 HP model and extended the discharge line farther from the house foundation. The basement stayed completely dry through the next two storms.”
“My old sump pump was short-cycling every few minutes and the check valve had failed. They installed a new check valve, cleaned out the pit, and added a battery backup unit. It now runs only when needed and I no longer hear the constant humming at night.”
“Water was seeping in around the sump basin during heavy downpours on Tallmadge Avenue. The crew sealed the liner, replaced the float switch, and regraded the gravel bed. No more moisture on the floor and the pump only activates during actual high water events.”
