Sump Pump Repair Built for Erie's Lake-Effect Conditions
Pete Marino started Erie Pump Pros to handle the specific demands of Erie homes, where heavy lake-effect snow followed by spring thaws sends water toward foundations in neighborhoods like the West Side, East Erie, and Glenwood. Operating from the shop at 1849 W 26th St, the team responds to calls from Downtown Erie, Little Italy, and the Bayfront, where older housing stock often means narrow crawl spaces and aging discharge lines that need careful replacement rather than quick swaps.
What sets the work apart is the focus on matching each repair to the actual site conditions around Presque Isle State Park and the USS Niagara waterfront, where soil stays saturated longer and sump systems run harder during melt cycles. Homeowners in nearby Meadville and Corry also reach out when their setups can't keep up, and the crew travels with the right parts sized for those longer runs and colder starts.
The shop stays open Monday through Friday from 8am to 6pm and Saturday from 9am to 2pm so property owners can schedule around work and weather windows without waiting days for a callback.
I grew up on the West Side and started Erie Pump Pros after fixing repeated failures in my own basement during the first big lake-effect snows one winter. Older housing stock in places like Downtown Erie, Glenwood, and East Erie sits on ground that stays saturated from Lake Erie moisture, so I focused on reliable Sump Pump Repair that holds up when the humid continental weather brings heavy snow and spring melt.

What Erie, PA Customers Say
“My sump pump stopped during a spring rainstorm and water was rising toward the furnace. Erie Pump Pros pulled the old unit, swapped in a new Zoeller with a fresh check valve, and flushed the discharge line out to the yard. Basement stayed dry through the next two storms.”
“The pump kept cycling every few minutes even when the pit was empty. They replaced the stuck float switch, cleaned sludge from the bottom of the basin, and adjusted the on/off levels. It now runs only when needed and the electric bill dropped.”
“Heavy clay soil kept clogging the inlet screen and water sat in the pit. The tech removed the blockage, installed a larger perforated basin cover, and added a battery backup unit. The system handled the last downpour without any overflow.”
