Are you ankle deep in water?

Sump Pump Services

Many homes throughout the country have sump pumps installed, while in many cases and in many places in California we do not. The determination to install a sump pump is made based on the local water table, changing weather conditions, and the amount of rainfall you get. When you do find a sump pump in Southern CA, its mostly found in parking garages, crawl spaces or commercial buildings since we don’t have basements. But we do install them outside as well to help with flooding.

Sump Pump Maintenance
and Repair

And while sump pumps can sometimes mean the difference between a room full of water and your home’s ability to survive another rain, sometimes, sump pumps fail. Many homeowners never consider the need for sump pump maintenance — when the sump pump operates correctly, it is one of those home items that can easily be forgotten. However, once a homeowner has had the unpleasant experience of standing ankle-deep in their flooded basement after heavy rainfall, they may rethink maintenance in the future.

Homeowners should be proactive to ensure their sump pump is in good working order, which can prevent costly water damage after a storm or broken pipe. Sump pumps provide vital prevention that can avoid flooding. Thus, regular service and maintenance by a licensed plumbing professional is highly suggested.

What Can Go Wrong with a Sump Pump?

The most common reasons for sump pump failure include:

  • Power failure
  • A stuck switch
  • An overwhelmed pump
  • Frozen or clogged discharge pipes
  • Lack of maintenance or improper maintenance
  • Old age
  • Improper installation
  • No check valve on the discharge line
  • A sump pump set into gravel or dirt
  • Product defect

Signs that Your Sump Pump is Failing

Any water that progresses into your home or business will use gravity to flow as low as it can get, which is why sump pumps are placed in sump pits at the lowest point of your location. When water works its way into your space, the pump pulls it away from the foundation of your home and into the wastewater system, which prevents flooding.

Sump pumps need replacing periodically, and your plumber is the best professional to estimate when your sump pump may need replacement. However, if you experience any of the following, it is time to call a plumber to help you assess the situation:

  • Power failure
  • Your sump pump is not the proper size for your home
  • Improper installation
  • Switch problems
  • Lack of maintenance
  • Clogged discharge lines
