Sump Pump Installation & Repair
A sump pump's job is simple but important: move water away from your home before it becomes a problem. Whether you need a new one installed or an existing pump repaired, here's what's involved.
Signs Your Sump Pump Needs Attention
- The pump doesn't turn on when water rises in the pit
- It runs constantly, even without much water present
- Unusual noise coming from the pump or motor
- Visible rust or wear on the unit
- Water in the area the pump is supposed to protect
Do You Need a Sump Pump?
If your property has a basement, crawl space, or an area prone to water collecting after heavy rain, a sump pump helps move that water out before it causes damage. If you've had water intrusion issues before, or you're finishing a basement, it's worth having a system in place before it becomes a problem rather than after.
