Replace your sump pump if it’s older than 8–10 years, runs constantly without lowering the water, makes loud or grinding noises, fails to start at all, or has visible rust or cracking on the housing. A failing pump during a storm is exactly when you can’t afford a flood.
Signs to replace
- Pump is 8+ years old
- Runs constantly, struggling to keep up
- Loud grinding, rattling, or screeching
- Fails to start during a test
- Visible rust, cracks, or water around the housing
- Repeated repair calls in the last year
We replace and add battery-backup pumps through our sump pump service.
