The Role That Sump Pumps Play

The main purpose of a sump pump is to keep your basement or crawlspace dry when there's excess moisture from rain or melting snow. A sump pump is made up of a pit or basin that holds the pump. The pump itself has valves that detect rising water levels to determine when to run. Some pumps are fully submerged in the basin while others are primarily located outside of the pit.

Common Issues We Address With Sump Pump Repair

We respond to all requests for sump pump repair in Cornelius, NC quickly and come prepared with everything needed to diagnose and resolve problems. Sump pump issues can be caused by an under-sized pump, one that's not maintained well, or clogs that impede flow. Pumps can also be affected by electrical and mechanical issues.

Contact us about sump pump replacement, repair, or service if you're noticing:

  • Strange noises during operation
  • Failure of the pump to activate or turn on
  • Continuous running
  • Rust on the pump
  • Issues with the motor
  • No water at all in the pit

What to Consider Before Choosing a Sump Pump

Start by determining if you prefer a submersible or pedestal pump. Pedestal pumps typically last longer, and they're less expensive. Submersible pumps are quieter, and they allow the pit to be sealed. Also, consider what's common with flooding and rain in your immediate area. This way you can choose a sump pump with the right horsepower for your needs. We also recommend opting for a pump with an alarm to get alerts when water reaches a certain point. A battery backup pump is also worth considering for times when the power is out or your main pump fails.

About Sewer Pumps and Well Pumps

A sewer or sewage pump uses gravity to send solid and liquid materials to your plumbing system and then to a septic system. Sewage pumps are generally fairly easy to maintain, but it's important to schedule prompt sump pump services if you notice any issues. There are two main options with sewage pumps:

  • Ejector pumps: An ejector pump is designed to handle dirty water and some solid or raw sewage.
  • Grinder pumps: A grinder pump handles larger volumes of raw sewage – usually in commercial settings.

A well pump is a type of pump that pushes water from a well to a storage tank. It remains there until it's needed by using a pressure tank system. Jet and submersible pumps are the two main types of well pumps. Jet pumps are best for shallow wells, while submersible pumps are better for deeper wells.
