How the visit works
- Test what is thereWe fill the pit and watch the cycle - run time, switch action and discharge flow.
- Size for real inflowA pump that is too large short-cycles and fails early. We size against how fast the pit actually fills.
- Fit the pumpNew pump, check valve and unions so the next replacement is a ten-minute job.
- Add backup where it mattersyour area storms take power out with them. A battery backup is worth more than a bigger primary pump.
- Route the dischargeFar enough from the foundation that the water does not simply come back.

Questions about sump pump repair and installation
How long does a sump pump last?
Seven to ten years typically. Pumps that run frequently in wet North Carolina crawlspaces go sooner, which is why a backup matters.
Do I need a battery backup?
If losing the pump means water in a finished space, yes. Storms cause both the heavy inflow and the power cut at the same time.
Why does my pump run constantly?
Either the float is stuck, the check valve is letting water back into the pit, or groundwater is genuinely high. We test all three.
Can you install a pump where there is none?
Yes, including cutting and forming a pit in a North Carolina crawlspace or basement and routing the discharge properly.
