Understanding how these systems work and when to call for help can help protect your home.
"Always reliable! The only company I trust with our home's plumbing." - Jonathan C.
Homeowners in Summerlin worry about flash flooding, especially during the wet season, from late June to mid-September. Water can flood basements and crawl spaces, leading to foundation damage and mold growth that can put families at risk. Excess moisture and mold growth can impact your indoor air quality, causing further problems. Installing a sump pump is your first line of defense against flooding.
We install sump pumps at the lowest point of your home, typically in the basement or crawl space. A sump pit collects rain or groundwater through natural seepage or a drain system.
These systems remain on standby until you activate them. The sump pump float switch, similar to the float inside your toilet tank, activates when the water level rises to a certain point.
Once the float switch activates, it turns on the pump and pushes the water through an outside discharge pipe. The discharge pipe sends the water to a dry well, storm drain, or a sloped area that ushers it away from the foundation.
When the water drops to a safe level, the pump shuts off automatically. These pumps work seamlessly and can last up to 10 years. Regular cleaning and maintenance are essential to help them last their full life spans.
If your basement or crawl space floods easily, you should consider installing a sump pump. A new installation typically takes around eight hours. Replacing an outdated model with a new pump can take two to four hours, including time for removing the old system.
If your sump pump needs repair services, we can help with that, too.
Some signs your sump pump needs repair include:
Strange sounds
Excessive vibrations
Frequent cycling
Takes too long to drain
Does not engage
Rust or damage
Will not stop running
Repair issues are more likely to occur as wear and tear happen with age. It is essential to seek immediate repairs to avoid ongoing damage that could result in complete failure.
