Sump pump maintenance and service that cleans the pit, tests the float and check valve, inspects the discharge and replaces worn parts before the next storm.
A sump pump sits quietly for months and then has to work perfectly in the worst weather. Silt gathers in the pit, floats stick, check valves wear out and discharge lines clog or freeze. A pump that has not been tested may fail when you need it. A short service visit keeps the system ready, and owners around Nashville find it is most useful just before the wet season in late winter and spring.
We remove the lid, clean silt and debris from the pit and check that the pump sits level. We test the float switch through a full cycle, check the check valve, listen to the motor and inspect the power cord and outlet. We follow the discharge line outside and make sure the outlet is clear and not frozen or buried. We tighten fittings, replace worn parts and note how old the pump looks. We tell you if it is nearing the end of its useful life, suggest a backup option and show you the simple tests you can do yourself between visits.
