When heavy rain hits, a working sump pump is all that stands between your Oak Ridge basement and a flood. Many of Oak Ridge's original homes have basements and crawlspaces that depend on a reliable pump. Honey Bear Plumbing repairs, replaces, and installs sump pumps throughout Oak Ridge and Anderson County, and tests that yours is ready before the next storm.

Signs Your Sump Pump Needs Service
Strange noises, constant running, frequent cycling, visible rust, or a pump more than 7–10 years old all warrant a check. The worst time to discover a dead pump is mid-storm — we test and service before that happens. All work meets Anderson County code.
Honey Bear Plumbing holds Tennessee contractor license TN CMC-A #83354 and is fully insured.

Frequently Asked Questions
Pour a bucket of water into the sump pit until the float rises and the pump kicks on. The pump should remove the water quickly and shut off. If it doesn't start or runs but doesn't remove water, call us for a diagnosis.
We recommend replacing sump pumps that are over 10 years old proactively, especially before the rainy season. The cost of replacement is far less than the cost of a flooded basement.
