I have a working sump pump, but my basement is still wet. Why?

There are several reasons why a basement with a working sump pump can still be wet. These reasons include: the sump pump may not be powerful enough to handle the influx of water; the sump liner or basin may be too small, causing overflow; the drainage system could be clogged or collapsed; the sump pump may not have been installed in the basement’s lowest corner; and the drainage systems may not have been installed with the proper pitch to divert all water to the sump pump. If you’re dealing with a wet basement despite having a functioning sump pump, it’s essential to consider these factors as potential causes.

Why is my sump pump running so often?

That often occurs because there is an increase in water flow. If there hasn’t been an elevation in rainfall, it is possible that changes in the water table have been triggered by nearby construction activities or alterations in the city’s wastewater system.

Why is my sump pump is not kicking in.

If your sump pump is not kicking in, first check if it was accidentally unplugged or if the circuit breaker was tripped. Additionally, ensure that the float switch is operating freely and not tangled or obstructed by debris. If these troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, contact the Sump Pump Geeks for professional service.
