A sump pump moves water from your basement to your home’s exterior. It lives inside a pit, also called a pump, that is carved below your basement floor surface. The pit holds the pump which senses excessive water levels and pumps them out of your home to prevent flooding.
If a sump pump becomes damaged, you need it repaired quickly to save your home from water damage. Service Minds Benjamin Franklin is a trusted provider of sump pump repair in Pensacola FL. Call us and we will get the job done.
How Do I Know I Need a Sump Pump Repair?
Strange Noises: Your sump pump will make a hum during normal operation but if the noises are unusual, such as a rattling or grinding, there may be something wrong with the impeller fan or another component.
Won’t Turn On: If your sump pump won’t turn on, it may be because the switch is stuck or it may be because the brackets that hold the float switch are broken. We will diagnose the issue and recommend the best course of action.
Won’t Stop Running: A broken sump pump may run continuously because it is not powerful enough to handle the water that has accumulated or it may be due to a broken switch. A switch is an easy fix. But if the sump pump is too small, you may require a replacement.
Visible Rust: A sump pump handles water so rust is a common occurrence. However, if you notice excessive rust, the system could be corroded with bacteria that can damage your plumbing system. It is best to have this matter checked out right away.
Old Age: Sump pumps typically last about seven years. If you are having frequent issues with a sump pump that’s nearing the end of its lifespan, you may need a replacement.
Motor Problems: Motor problems may cause the sump pump to stop working. They may be linked to damaged wiring, a tripped circuit breaker, or a damaged filter or extension hose. Service Minds will find the source of the problem and recommend the best repair solutions.
No Water in the Pit: If your sump pump is working but there is no water in the pit, it may be due to improper installation. A trained professional can reinstall it and get it back in working order.
