Sump Pumps Installation & Repair

What is a sump pump and how’s it work?

A sump pump is a device installed in the lowest part of your home (usually the basement or crawl space). It’s meant to keep the area dry and prevent flooding. They come in two types: submersible and pedestal. Basically, one is installed inside the sump basin and the other is mounted above.
How’s it work? The sump pump operates a specially constructed pit known as a sump basin. This pit collects water from drains or seepage around your foundation. When the water level in the basin rises to a certain point, the pump activates automatically and directs the water away from your property.

Sump Pump Installation

Installations should be left to trained professionals

A sump pump plays a critical role, and the installation is nothing to take lightly. While it might be tempting to save money with a DIY installation, this is one task best left to a trained sump pump installer in Wichita. Here’s why:

  • You must determine the optimal location for the sump pump to ensure maximum efficiency.
  • Installing a pump that’s too small can lead to flooding while an oversized pump wastes energy and resources.
  • Sump pumps require a reliable power source and may need a backup battery system for outages.

A professional installation minimizes the risk of future issues to ultimately save you time, money, and stress. Plus, hiring a trained plumber is quick and affordable when you choose Mr. Rooter Plumbing. Call now to learn more about our prices and fees.

Keeping your sump pump running smoothly

The sump pump is not something you plug in and forget. They need regular maintenance to function properly. Here are some essential maintenance tasks to avoid premature sump pump repair:

  • Pour a bucket of water into the sump basin to make sure the pump activates and drains water correctly.
  • Clean the pump and basin to remove risks of clogging.
  • If your pump has a battery backup, test that it’s fully charged and operational.

You can also call Mr. Rooter to have a local experienced plumber in Wichita, KS perform a comprehensive tune-up. Routine maintenance by a professional can save you from unnecessary and unexpected sump pump repair in Wichita.

When to replace your sump pump

Even with proper maintenance, sump pumps won’t last forever. Stay vigilant for the following signs that might indicate it’s time for a sump pump replacement:

  • Grinding, rattling, or whining noises.
  • Your pump cycles on and off irregularly or fails to activate.
  • Visible rust or corrosion.
  • The device is over 10 years old.
  • You’re constantly repairing your pump.

Still unsure? Call Mr. Rooter Plumbing to have a dedicated plumber investigate. The peace of mind alone can be worth it.

What Our Customers Say About Us

We had an emergency sewer line job on a Saturday, and Mr, Rooter was quick to respond. Brent did a great job explaining what he was going to do, as well as walking us through the camera scoping and showing us exactly where the problems were. He was courteous and thorough with his work, and we really appreciated it on such short notice! Would definitely use them again.

Backed up sewer line, is never a good way to start a Monday, but the folks at Mr Rooter, made the whole thing easier to deal with. Timely response, combined with excellent customer service from the time I called, until the job was completed, was a refreshing change. The technician that was dispatched out, explained everything in great detail, and was very thorough with everything he did. Would definitely recommend, and use them again. Might add that price point was very competitive.

Dylan and Tim worked tirelessly to repair our pipes and leaks. We had bursted pipes in our crawl space which required them to work in a tight space and even dig to fully access the pipes.  We’ve had an ongoing issue with multiple plumbers attempting to repair. Our problem was fully resolved. These gentlemen exceeding our expectations!

Brent was truly a pleasure to deal with. Having our pipe burst in the middle of the night along with dealing with with HVAC problems defintely wore me down. He took his time explaining my options and helped me better understand the actual problem with the pipes. I appreciate his kindness and patience. Will be calling them for any future problems.
