Homes with below-grade plumbing — or even entire houses that rely on a sewage pump system — depend on that pump to keep wastewater moving to the septic tank or city sewer. The pump pit might be in the basement or outside, but when it stops working, things back up fast. DBS Plumbing Solutions troubleshoots, repairs, and replaces ejector and grinder pumps across Northern Kentucky, restoring flow and peace of mind.

Expert Diagnosis & Clean Workmanship
We test electrical load, inspect the check valve, and confirm the vent and discharge line are clear. When replacement is needed, we install heavy-duty Zoeller grinder or ejector pumps and rebuild the pit for years of dependable use. We also upgrade floats, cords, and control panels to modern, safe standards.
Grinder vs. Ejector — What’s the Difference?
A grinder pump shreds solids into a fine slurry for smaller discharge lines. A sewage ejector pump moves larger 2″ solids in gravity systems. We inspect and replace the right type for your property.
