Our technicians are here when you need prompt, effective sump pump repairs.
If you live in an area where flooding is common, or there are other geological factors such as a high water table, low elevation, or a generally wet climate, having a sump pump installed on your property is a wise idea. However, while these innovative machines are built to last, they’re not immune to damage, wear, and tear. That’s why our team here at Slaughter Plumbing Service, Inc. offers expert sump pump repair services to our Largo, Florida area customers.
Your sump pump should be situated in the lowest part of your basement, or, more likely here in Florida, the crawlspace. Its job is to help prevent the area from flooding, and it pumps any water that may collect in the sump pit where it is situated, depositing the water in a safe location away from your foundation. If your sump pump isn’t functioning properly, it can leave your home prone to flooding or moisture damage, so taking prompt action when a sump pump repair is needed is essential.
Here are a few signs that indicate you may need a sump pump repair:
- Strange noises, such as rattling, grinding, or whining.
- The pump runs constantly, indicating a stuck float switch or an improperly sized unit.
- The pump doesn’t turn on, indicating an electrical or motor failure.
- Shot cycling or rapid on/off behavior, indicating a broken float or control issue.
- Failure to pump water, which indicates a clog, broken impeller, or disconnected discharge pipe.
- There is visible rust, debris, or corrosion, which can cause clogs or weaken the components.
