Sump Pump Failure/Flooding Services in Dayton, Ohio

Sump pump systems are designed to keep your home dry in difficult, water-logged conditions. Typically, a sump pump is installed in a basement of a house to prevent flooding water from coming inside your house. It kicks into action when it detects moisture and pumps it away from your home.

If the pump malfunctions, your home gets wet and flooding often results. When you need to dry out your basement or crawl space in the Greater Dayton, OH area because of sump pump failure, our licensed professionals from Teasdale Fenton will provide sump pump failure recovery services and help you get your life back in order.

How Does a Sump Pump Work?

The primary functions of a sump pump are detecting extra moisture or water and siphoning it out of your residence. It is usually located in the deepest part of a basement. It is also called a sump basin. A pipe is attached to it and works as a passage that keeps the water away from the foundation of your house. The pump starts extracting water as soon as it finds out about its existence.

During storms and heavy rain, water starts flowing with great intensity and starts entering your house. Whenever the water is approaching to enter your home, a sump pump immediately gets active and begins to siphon the excess water away from your area. Although, there is something that should be mentioned here. Sump pumps use electricity to operate. If the water hits your main electricity line first, it is not going to work if not backed by a battery/ batteries. If it is battery backed though. you won't need to worry about anything.

Sump pump Issues That Frequently Occur

There are many reasons why a sump pump system can collapse. But like any other automated system, sump pumps also have their own limitations. You won't be able to probably find out that there is a failure until it is too late. To avoid these circumstances, you will need to frequently monitor that there is no functional error in your sump pump system.

Sump pump issues that are most frequently seen are:

Power Line Failure
Check Valve Breakage
Debris that disrupts the Pump
Cloggs
Inaccurate Size of Pit or Pump

You will need to always keep an eye on your sump pump and service them at least once a year. Otherwise, it might not operate properly when it is supposed to save your home from being flooded. In addition to that, it is also highly recommended that you should install emergency battery backups in your sump pump. It will give you two major benefits. Firstly, it will back you when there is a power failure. Secondly, it will take responsibility when the main pump is not working or lacks the power to face the water pressure.

We have been using Teasdale for several years in both of our houses. I called two weeks ago to get an area in my dining room cleaned because a cat was peeing on it. I had initially planned to pay the fee, and then the extra fees for enzyme cleaner to get rod of the smell. Thankfully your technician was extremely thorough, and pulled back the carpet...
