Sump Pumps & Backup in Bronxville, NY
Bronxville is the oldest housing stock on this site: the typical home was built around 1938 and 93% pre-date 1980. Old masonry foundations and small lots mean most work is done from the inside. Storms that bring heavy rain often bring power outages, which is when pumps are needed most and most likely to fail. A battery backup or water-powered backup, plus a discharge line that sends water well away from the house, are worth discussing for any home that relies on a pump. Plumbing work in Westchester can require a county trades license in addition to a home improvement license; see our licensing guide.
Sump pumps companies for Bronxville
How we pick: we list up to six companies per page. Independent firms come first, then firms based outside Westchester, then franchise or network affiliates.

Plumbing licenses
Westchester County issues plumbing licenses separately from home improvement licenses, through its trade licenses search. We searched that database on Oct 27, 2026. Where a company or its plumber appears there, the license number is shown on its profile. A name that is not found means only that we found no record under that name, so ask any company that installs or connects a sump pump who does the plumbing and confirm that license number with the county. Work outside the building, such as a yard drain, is often not plumbing work, and rules vary by town.

Frequently asked questions
How many sump pumps companies serve Bronxville?
We show 6 of 14 companies we found for Bronxville: 10 name Bronxville as an area they serve, and the rest serve all of Westchester County. Always confirm a company covers your address.
Does Bronxville require a permit for this work?
Often yes. See the permit notes on this page, then call the Bronxville building department before you sign a contract.
How long does a sump pump last?
It depends on the pump and how often it runs. Pumps in wet basements that cycle frequently wear out sooner. Test yours every few months by pouring water into the pit.
Do I need a backup pump?
If your basement takes water whenever the pump stops, a backup is cheap insurance against an outage or a stuck float switch.
