Christina Yount

“I was very happy with our service technician, Tommy. He sent us an e-mail & text (w/ his photo) before he arrived. He took off his shoes and wore disposable booties on his feet and was polite & respectful. He explained what we needed, in plain English, and patiently answered our many questions. He e-mailed me an estimate within 10 minutes of leaving our condo. He even paid some attention to our Cat ! My sister & I were very impressed.”

Ronnie Schulman

“I admit I had a little sticker shock when I was quoted $466 to snake a clogged kitchen drain. I did receive a $30 discount as a first time customer. That said, I was very happy with the service. They came the next day at the promised time and took the time and effort to do the job right and explain what they were doing and how to avoid future issues. They left me some solution to to pour down my drain. The plumber was professional and very courteous. I gave four stars instead of five only because I thought they were a little pricey. Nonetheless I’d use them again.”

Alison Stein

“Excellent service! I felt very well informed about all my options. The company calls, texts and emails when a service provider is on the way. I’ll absolutely recommend them and use them in the future.”

Penny Dunn

“Very pleasant experience. Shane was very nice. After I showed him what I needed, he gave me an estimated cost and after I approved the estimate, got to work. About two hours later, he was done. I was very pleased. If I hadn’t known someone had been there, I would never guessed. Very neat and tidy. Highly recommended.”

Prevent Basement Flooding with Sump Pump Repair Services

If your home was built in an area with poor natural drainage, you might need a sump pump to help keep your basement dry during heavy rainfalls. When a sump pump is in place, the water is pumped away before it has a chance to cause property damage. There is a pit in the basement, and when the water reaches a predetermined level, the pump switches on, and the water is pumped away. Don’t let the sump pump trouble create further problems in your home. Get fast, reliable help from Cardinal Plumbing, Heating & Air experts.

Which Type of Sump Pump Do You Need?

There are two basic types of a sump pump to choose from: a submersible pump and a pedestal pump.

Submersible Pump
Submersible pumps are placed under the water inside the sump pit or basin, and pedestal pumps have the pump motor outside the water.

Pedestal Pump
Pedestal pumps are good if you have a smaller pit or basin, but many homeowners prefer the submersible type. To determine which type will work best for your home, discuss it with your plumber to get all the facts and details.

Sump Pump Maintenance

Just like any plumbing appliance or piece of equipment, regular maintenance will keep your sump pump running smoothly when you need it. If your pump breaks down and you get a big rainstorm that day, you may be faced with water damage that you could have avoided if you had properly maintained the pump.

A broken pump may damage your foundation from hydrostatic pressure that can build behind the walls. Regular maintenance will keep your pump clean and fix any minor issues before they have a chance to get worse.

Acting quickly when problems start is key to keeping your sump pump working and your basement dry.

Putting it off until later will only result in water in your basement and a hefty cleanup bill. As soon as you see signs of trouble, call your plumber and explain what is happening. You may get some tips on how to get the pump running again, but at the very least, the experts will know what’s going on, and the process will be underway.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the most common reason for sump pump failure?

The most common reason for sump pump failure is a power outage. When you have bad weather, your sump pump probably kicks into gear. But it can’t work if there’s no power to it. Bad weather often knocks out the power and renders a sump pump useless. The only way to keep this from occurring is to have a backup generator.

Do sump pumps need maintenance?

Contrary to popular belief, sump pumps need routine maintenance. Most people don’t realize this because they don’t spend much time thinking about their sump pump. You might have it hidden away in your basement and only give thought to your pump when it begins to rain or flood. Unfortunately, this is why your sump pump might fail you.

How often do sump pumps need to be replaced?

Approximately every seven to ten years, you should replace your sump pump. You can call a plumber to have them inspect your sump pump and tell you the remaining lifespan of the equipment. However, you should avoid waiting for the pump to fail. The whole point of having a sump pump is to protect against flooding.
