Is your sump pump failing?
A sump pump removes collected groundwater from a basin to help protect lower levels of a home. If it will not start, runs constantly, makes unusual sounds, or fails to move water through the discharge line, a component may need inspection or replacement.
Call us to discuss your sump pump issue. Our phone line accepts calls 24/7; appointment availability varies.
Common warning signs
- Water rising in the sump basin without pump activation
- Frequent cycling or a pump that never shuts off
- Humming or grinding without normal discharge
- Water flowing back into the basin after shutdown
- A power outage with no functional backup pump
Safety: Do not enter standing water where electrical equipment may be energized. Avoid handling submerged cords or switches. Seek qualified help for electrical problems.
