Water damage can wreak havoc on your home’s structure and your belongings in a short amount of time.

If you don’t have a pump installed, then sump pump installation should be your very next concern.
"Couldn’t be more pleased with the whole experience. These guys have it figured out."
A well-functioning sump pump is the key to keeping that unwelcome water intrusion at bay. Unfortunately, just like many other household appliances, sump pumps can experience problems. Having a quality sump pump repair professional that you can rely on is the key to protecting your home.
There are many common issues that you may experience with your sump pump.
Clogged discharge or inlet pipe
Worn-out motor
Malfunctioning float
Faulty switch
Overwhelmed pump
It’s good to regularly check the level of water in your sump pump to be sure it is functioning. There should usually be a small amount of water in the basin. As the excess water enters, the water level in the basin will rise. When it hits a predetermined level, the float on your sump pump will move. This will signal the switch to turn the motor on to start pumping.
If the pump won’t turn on, first check the circuit breaker. If that doesn’t fix the problem, your motor may have sustained damage. Other possible causes include a stuck float or a faulty switch. You may need a new sump pump installation if we can’t repair the pump.
Occasionally, debris will find its way into your sump pit. If this material gets sucked into the drain line, it can prevent your sump pump from adequately removing any water as it can’t get through the clog. In this case, the motor will run but can’t remove the water. Removing the debris buildup is a necessity to resume your water flow.
