Creek-adjacent lots and older drainage in Garner

On low lots, the ground stays saturated after storms and the water table rises toward the crawl space. In that case the water does not come from the roof. It comes up from below, and gutters alone will not stop it. A sump pit with a properly sized pump collects the groundwater and moves it out. We run the discharge line away from the house and from neighbors’ property.

Local tip: If you have a sump pump in Garner already, test it before the summer storm season. Pour water in the pit and watch it empty.

What a Sump Pump Does

A sump pump sits in a pit at the low point of a crawl space or basement. When water fills the pit, a float switch starts the pump, and the pump sends the water through a discharge line away from the house.

It protects framing, insulation, flooring and stored items from standing water, and it helps keep humidity down in the space above the ground.

Signs You Need a Sump Pump in Garner

How Sump Pump Installation Works in Garner

1. Inspect

We look at where water enters, the soil, grading and the best place for the pit.

3. Install the pump

We install a pump sized for your space with a float switch and check valve.

4. Run the discharge

We run a discharge line that sends water away from the foundation.

5. Add backup

We can add a battery backup so the pump runs during an outage.

6. Test

We fill the pit, confirm the pump starts and clears the water, and show you how it works.
