Sump Pump Installation
Colorado’s climate creates certain challenges for homeowners. Rapid spring snowmelt combined with intense summer thunderstorms can overwhelm even well-built foundations, and the Front Range’s expansive clay soils shift constantly throughout the year. A professionally installed sump pump helps prevent water damage while preserving your investment.
Liftech provides expert sump pump installation throughout the Denver metro and Front Range areas. Our waterproofing specialists install rigorously tested systems designed for Colorado’s demanding conditions. From basic replacements to comprehensive multi-tier protection, we’ll help you choose the right solution.

Sump Pump Installation
Why Colorado Homes Need a Sump Pump
The expansive clay common throughout the Front Range absorbs moisture during wet periods and contracts during dry spells, creating constant expansion and contraction beneath your foundation. Over time, this movement causes structural cracks that allow water to seep in.
When standing water accumulates in your basement, it creates a damp environment that allows mold to thrive, compromising indoor air quality. More importantly, moisture damage can impact resale value, risking prospective buyers walking away from properties with a history of water intrusion.

Expert Sump Pump Installation Cost and Options
The cost of professional sump pump installation depends on the level of protection your home requires. System complexity, capacity and backup features all influence the final investment. Manufactured to PHCC-grade standards, Liftech offers a transparent Good, Better, Best tier system. Exceptional reliability in intermittent residential applications makes these units ideal for Colorado homes. Radon-sealed baskets with corrosion-resistant construction and see-through lids come standard across every tier.Â
Our three options include:
Good Tier
An ST1033-DFC1.5 system with an enhanced controller that exercises the pump weekly and includes a three-year warranty, ideal for homes with minor seasonal seepage
Better Tier
An ST1033-DFC2 system with deluxe controller featuring power and battery alarms, remote monitoring compatibility and a three-year warranty, perfect for properties with moderate water intrusion
Best Tier
A PS-C22 combination system with battery backup pump, advanced monitoring controller and four-year warranty, designed for flood-prone areas or homes requiring maximum protection
All Liftech sump baskets feature radon-sealed construction to protect indoor air quality while maintaining efficient water removal.
The Value of a Sump Pump Replacement
Waiting for an old unit to fail before scheduling a sump pump replacement is risky. Most homeowners don’t realize their system has stopped working until they discover standing water in the basement.
DIY installations by previous homeowners often lack critical components such as check valves and proper discharge routing. These systems may appear functional but fail during heavy rain when you need them most. Professional replacement ensures every component meets industry standards.
Battery-powered secondary systems provide ultimate peace of mind during severe weather, automatically engaging when the primary system fails. Colorado’s intense summer storms frequently knock out power right when your primary system needs to operate. A backup system for your finished basement helps you save time and money if that happens.

Liftech uses specialty waterproofing products designed and manufactured in the US by Safebasements™. These products are superior in quality and efficacy to other products in the market. Our estimators can provide specific detail as to why our products will be better for your basement.
Is a sump pump under my house really necessary in Colorado?
The importance of a sump pump in a home cannot be overstated, especially for Colorado homes.  This is because we’re located in an area that experiences heavy rainfall, flooding, or has a high water table. Our homes experience a lot of water over the course of the year.
Can I install a sump pump myself?
If your home’s sump pump is failing and you simply want to replace it, someone handy enough can DIY the job of a sump replacement. However, it’s highly recommended that you defer to a expert when installing a new sump pump. Â
What is the cost for professional sump pump installation?
A professional installation will range in cost from $600 to $1,800 for the sump pump unit plus labor, with an average cost of around $1,200. Liftech’s estimators are the most honest and experienced in Colorado. Liftech offers a “good, better, best” tier of sump pump setups.
