Sump Pump Installation, Replacement & Repair
A sump pump can be an incredibly valuable resource in your home, especially if you have a flood-prone basement or foundation.
Their primary purpose is to collect and then pump excess water away from your home. As a result, your basement remains dry, free of moisture and protected from expensive property damage. If you’ve had issues with water in your basement – or even if you haven’t – investing in a sump pump is a smart way to protect your home.

How to Tell If You Need a Sump Pump?
Sump pumps are usually installed in basements or crawlspaces in areas that experience frequent flooding or where the water table is equal or above the foundation of the house. Most of the flooding occurs during winter and it is estimated that 90% of American households need sump pumps. There are 3 main factors that determine whether your house needs a sump pump or not.
High Water Table
Water table is the level at which free standing water exists. If your basement or crawlspace floor is lower than the surrounding water table then you need a sump pump.
Hillside Areas
Rainwater runoff can pose serious problems to houses that are located on hills or at the bottom of hills.
Bad Soil Density and Drainage
Clay soil is referred to as a dense or heavy type of soil because it’s so compact and drains so slowly, which allows the water to pool. If a foundation is built in such dense soil, the water that can’t drain through the soil will instead drain through the porous walls of the foundation and cause flooding in your basement or crawlspace.
