Plainfield's Plumber for Sump Pump Problems
Leto Plumbing & Heating, Inc. has repaired, replaced and installed sump pumps in Plainfield, IL for 24 years, with IL license #055-036313, background-checked technicians, and a 4.8-star rating across 53 Google reviews. If your pump failed during a storm or runs nonstop, call (815) 609-3150.
Plainfield soils look well-draining on paper, sandy with rapid permeability, but many subdivisions sit on compacted subsoil that pools water fast. Our shop is in Plainfield, so a midnight call isn't dispatched from across the region, and we work with the Village of Plainfield Building Department by the book: every permitted job is inspected.
Common Sump Pump Failures We Fix in Plainfield
They tend to fail during the exact storm that makes them essential.
Overwhelmed Pump
A pump sized for normal rain can't keep up with a heavy spring storm. We check whether your pit needs more horsepower.
Clogged Pump or Switch
Debris jams the impeller and float switch, so it never starts or never stops. We clear it and test the full cycle.
Frozen Discharge Line
Lines exiting at or above grade freeze solid. We clear them and can reposition the exit to cut freeze risk.
Power Loss
Storms knock out power when you need the pump most. We install battery backup systems.
Pump Running Nonstop
A stuck switch, a broken check valve, or groundwater beyond the pump's capacity. It burns out the motor fast.
- Overwhelmed sump pump
- Clogged sump pumps and switches
- Frozen or clogged discharged lines
- Power lost to the sump pump
- Sump pump running nonstop
How We Work
What a Sump Pump Service Call Looks Like
We won't push a replacement when a repair is the right call.
Inspect
Pump, pit, float switch, check valve and discharge line from pit to exit point.
Repair or Replace
If the pump is beyond repair or undersized, we install the right unit, not the most expensive one.
Test
We pour water into the pit and watch the full cycle: activate, discharge, shut off.

Kathy WendellWritten on behalf of my mom Annie: I am very satisfied with Chris Leto's service. He addressed the issue quickly and professionally. Charged a fair price.
Alvin KIn February of 2026 I used Leto Plumbing & Heating on two occasions. First for an emergency after hours weekend call when my sump pump line was frozen during our recent sub-zero weather. The second was a routine maintenance call to flush my hot water heaters. Both times the individuals that came out were pros who were friendly, knowledgeable and got the job done right the first time. Would highly recommend!

Ted KawczynskiVery happy with the service received by Leto plumbing. Starting with phone call made, very nice and was able to get us scheduled next day. Chris, technician, was earlier than originally expected (which was great), he explained everything, was very courteous and timely. Extremely happy with service provided and will be calling Leto for any future needs.
