The Importance of Sump Pump Repair & Maintenance

Homeowners rely on sump pumps when the water starts rising. 

A sump pump can fail for a variety of reasons, such as a:

  • Problem with the float switch
  • Clog in the intake screen
  • Failed motor

Since you need to be able to rely on your sump pump to keep your basement dry and prevent flooding, it is important to have your pump repaired as soon as possible. 

Unfortunately, many homeowners may not know there is a problem with the sump pump until it fails to come on, which can result in costly damage to their homes. Regular inspections and maintenance can uncover a potential problem with your equipment so it can be resolved before your home sustains water damage. Annual inspections are recommended to ensure that your pump is in good shape.

How Do I Know if I Need to Replace My Sump Pump?

A sump pump can be expected to last about eight to 10 years. If your sump pump is reaching the end of its expected life or experiencing significant operational issues, it may be time for replacement. Replacing the pump when it gets old, or you notice signs of diminished performance can help you avoid a catastrophe caused by a failed pump. 

Reasons to replace a sump pump include: 

  • The pump has obvious rust or corrosion 
  • The pump is constantly running 
  • The pump won’t turn on
  • The pump is clogged
  • The pump is cycling irregularly

When buying a new sump pump, there are several factors to consider, beginning with the type of pump. The main options are a submersible pump that sits in a sump pit below floor level or a pedestal pit. A submersible pump is generally the better option for reducing noise and preventing moisture in the air. A pump with a cast iron core will last longer. Sump pumps require power to operate. If power outages are a concern, you may want to consider a pump with a battery backup to ensure that your home is protected.
