How it works
Assess the situation
We check the pit level, test whether the float switch trips correctly, and determine whether the issue is power, float, or the pump motor itself.
Clear and reset
We remove any debris from the intake, correct the float switch position if it's hung up, and restore power to confirm the pump runs and shuts off as expected.
Test the full cycle
We add water to the pit to trigger the pump naturally and watch it evacuate and shut off cleanly, then confirm the discharge line is flowing freely.
Problems we fix
- Float switch tangled against the pit wall, preventing the pump from activating
- GFCI outlet that has tripped and cut power to the pump without notice
- Pump that runs continuously because the float is stuck in the raised position
- Discharge line frozen or blocked, causing the pump to run without removing water
- Old pump that has simply worn out and needs replacement
Sump Pump Reset in Columbia — FAQ
How do I know if my sump pump is actually working?
Pour a bucket of water into the pit slowly. The float should rise, trigger the pump, and the water level should drop. If nothing happens, there's a problem with the float, power, or motor.
Can you replace a sump pump if it's failed?
Yes — submersible sump pump replacement is straightforward. We disconnect the old unit, install the replacement, and test it through a full cycle before leaving.
Should I have a battery backup?
A battery backup sump pump is a smart addition for any home prone to basement flooding, especially in areas with frequent power outages during storms. We can discuss options at the visit.
Sump Pump Reset across Columbia
Columbia's long, hot, humid summers are hard on homes — HVAC strain, swollen doors, deck and fence wear, and moisture around windows and caulk are all common. Older in-town neighborhoods bring hardwood floors, plaster and original millwork, while the Northeast and the Lake Murray side add newer builds with their own needs. Our pros are comfortable with both.
