Unusual noises, a pump that runs constantly or not at all, visible rust or age past 10 years, and water pooling in your basement despite having a pump are all signs it needs service or replacement.
We recommend testing it at least once or twice a year, ideally before the rainy season, by pouring water into the pit and confirming the pump activates and drains it properly.
Yes — power outages often happen during the same storms that cause flooding, which is exactly when your primary pump needs to run. A battery backup keeps your basement protected even if the power goes out.
The most common causes are a pump that’s simply worn out, a stuck check valve, a clogged discharge line, or a power outage with no backup in place — all things we check during an inspection.
Cost depends on pump size, whether you’re adding a battery backup, and the condition of your existing pit and discharge line. We give you one fixed price after evaluating your basement’s setup.
