A properly placed cleanout makes future drain cleaning, camera inspections, and repairs faster, easier, and more cost-effective without any digging or guesswork. Whether you’re upgrading an older system or planning ahead for long-term maintenance, our team ensures any main line cleanouts are installed to code and built to last.

Sump & Ejector Pump Discharge Lines

A pump is only as good as its discharge line. At L.D. Smith Plumbing & Drains, we professionally install and repair sump and ejector pump discharge lines for homes and light commercial properties throughout Indianapolis and beyond.

Whether you’re replacing a failed line, upgrading to meet code, or installing a brand-new system, our team ensures proper routing, slope, and freeze protection to keep water moving away from your foundation. Not back into your basement or crawl space.

Improperly installed or damaged discharge lines can lead to water backups, pump failure, and even structural damage. We use specified materials and proven installation techniques to protect your property from the ground up.

When it comes to sump and ejector pump systems, Central Indiana trusts L.D. Smith Plumbing & Drains to install every pump, line, and connection with expertise and precision.

What People Are Saying

George Dante
I had a superlative experience with L.D. Smith on an exterior water main shut-off replacement and internal shut-off valve replacement and repair. This was performed through a UtilityShield claim (now run through HomeServe). First things first... I tried other companies, and even big names (aka Gluf Plumbing), thought that repairing a water shut off in the water main pit wasn't "code" or "frowned upon" by Citizens Energy. This is simply not true. Second, L.D. Smith managed to work with HomeServe, so they must have the patience of a saint. Home warranty companies are nearly universally bad in my ...

Third - and most importantly - both the folks L.D. Smith sent out were timely, professional, and broke things down to me in a way I could understand. Last, if you have a commercial repair, I would give these people your money over other folks in town, that's for sure.

Very positive experiences this week with 3 visits from L.D. Smith plumbers. First, Tim came out regarding a slow floor drain. He was thorough and helpful in explaining my options. Next, Jacob was here to replace the kitchen faucet and one of the water shutoff valves. His work was great and he gave extra effort in his cleanup of the existing hard water stains. 2 days later Tim returned with Mark to perform the drain cleaning. Their work was excellent. Mark then stayed to talk over some other plumbing concerns in my 100 year old house and was very helpful. He followed ...

It is a good feeling to know where to turn for plumbing issues.

Mason did a great job! He was knowledgeable, honest, and easy to talk to. I appreciated how comfortable he made the whole process. While my issue wasn’t fully resolved, he offered options I could try. They also gave me a courtesy inspection, which I really appreciated. I would gladly use their services again in the future.

We have had L.D. Smith do one huge repair for us which included replacing the sewer line all the way from the house to the alley behind the house. This required digging 10 ft into the ground for about 50 ft. They had to remove our patio. They did the work perfectly with the greatest most polite technicians we could have asked for. Recently we had to have them replace a pump on a wastewater cistern. They came out and did the job quickly and cleaned up afterwards. I highly recommend working with this company. They have always taken great care ...

We worked closely with Joe Garza. He was extremely understanding and concerned about our Being able to use the sewer system as quickly as possible. He stayed in touch with us while they were working on it and followed through to make sure we were happy. It was not an easy job since they had to tear up the concrete floor in our bedroom. They completed the job In three days. Their workmen were fantastic to work with, they were respectful and went out of their way to determine a workaround for a surprise situation. We would recommend their services to anyone without any hesitation.

We moved to L. D. Smith plumbing after our prior plumber shut down. L. D. Smith has been wonderful to work with having replaced our sump pump/back up battery, installed our tankless water heater and replaced our master shower system. Their team has always been professional, on time, clean, knowledgeable and done great work. They are honest and no pressure. Would highly recommend them.
