First, let’s talk about what a sump pump is and how it works. A sump pump is a device that is installed in a sump pit, which is typically located in a basement or crawl space. When water accumulates in the sump pit, the sump pump activates and pumps the water out of the pit and away from the home. This prevents the water from flooding the basement, windows, entryways or crawl spaces.

If you don’t already have a sump pump installed, it’s important to have one installed as soon as possible. Our qualified sump pump plumbers can install a sump pump for your home with the installation process typically involves digging a hole for the sump pit, installing the sump pit, and connecting the pump to a discharge pipe that will carry the water away from the home.
