Why You Need a Sump Pump

Signs your home could benefit from sump pump installation.

Basement flooding during heavy rain

The lower level of homes flood more often in lower areas. If your basement floods during heavy rainfall, a sump pump can prevent damage.

Low water table

Water may run toward the house and accumulate inside if the house is built in an area with a low water table or if the natural drainage isn't adequate.

Hydrostatic pressure

Water can build up behind the foundation of the house and increase pressure to the point that it causes structural damage — known as hydrostatic pressure.

Poor construction or faulty foundation

Poor construction or a faulty foundation are not always the only cause of basement flooding. Sometimes natural drainage and heavy storms are the primary factors.

Visible water damage

Even a small amount of water damage caused by flooding may cost thousands of dollars to be repaired. A sump pump helps lower the risk and cost.

Crawl space moisture

Underground crawl spaces are prone to moisture buildup. A properly installed sump pump keeps these areas dry and prevents mold growth.

Common Questions

Frequently asked about sump pump installation.

Honest answers from our licensed plumbers.

Can I install a sump pump myself?

Sump pump installation is NOT a DIY project. It involves various steps that require advanced technical knowledge and precision. It should be handled by professionals to ensure that it will function correctly during a flood.

Where should a sump pump be installed?

Sump pumps are most effective at removing water from under your basement floor when located in the lowest spot of the floor. If the sump cannot be located in the lowest spot, a PVC feed line should be run through the floor from the lowest spot to the sump pump location.

Can I use an extension cord with my sump pump?

No. Sump pumps deal with floodwater, and an extension cord is at high risk of being submerged into water and may cause electrocution. For the safety of you and your family, a dedicated outlet must be installed on top of your sump pump.

How often should I clean my sump pump?

We recommend that you clean your sump pump at least every 3 to 4 months after installation. This is especially necessary if you are using the pump to dispose of water from your washing machine.

What factors affect installation cost?

Many factors can affect the cost of your sump pump installation, such as the type of pump, the kind of flooring that you have, the location of where the pump will be installed, and your geographical location. Our team can help you decide which sump pump is right for your property and budget.
