Frequently Asked Questions about Water pump hire and operation in Ottery St Mary
Do I need to hire a pump separately?
No - we bring everything needed. The service includes the pump, hoses, and us operating it. One call, one price, job done.
How much water can you pump?
Our pumps handle typical domestic flooding - basements, garages, ground floors. For industrial-scale flooding, specialist equipment is needed.
Where does the water go?
Into drains, gardens, or away from the property. We position outlet hoses where water can safely drain away without causing problems elsewhere.
How long does pumping take?
Depends on volume and depth. A flooded garage might take an hour, a basement could take several. We stay until the water's gone.
