Common Issues With Sump Pumps
You need a functioning sump pump to help prevent plumbing emergencies at your property. When your unit malfunctions, it’s important to repair it as soon as possible. Some common issues your system might encounter can include:
- Power failures: If your system doesn’t have a battery backup installed, it will not be able to function during a power outage.
- Float valve issues: If your float valve is obstructed it can lead to serious problems with your unit.
- Underpowered pumps: If your unit is not the right size for your property and your needs you should install a new system.
- Frozen or clogged discharge pipe: Make sure your discharge pipes are clean and in proper working order to help prevent more extreme issues.
- Worn out pump motors: If the motor in your system wears out, you might need to replace your unit. Consult a professional to determine if the component can be repaired or if it needs to be replaced.

- Extensive piping, along with proper venting and electrical expertise, is essential for a proper installation. It’s crucial to only have experienced professionals install these systems.

Pride Plumbing was called out for a Sterling Windham 404555-CB toilet tank that would run constantly and not fill. We replaced the toilet tank's flapper with a new Lavelle 54BP black Korky model and corrected the issue. We also provided a cost estimate to replace the toilet with a new Gerber Viper model. This would include inspecting/cleaning/replacing the flange, replacing the toilet bowl, toilet tank, tank to bowl gasket and bolts, seat, wax ring gasket, toilet bowl bolts, toilet bowl bolt washers, toilet bowl bolt caps, and above-floor stainless steel braided water supply line.

Pride Plumbing was called out for a broken Gerber three-handle bathtub/shower valve. We replaced it with a new Gerber three-handle model along with converting the valve's copper above-floor hot and cold water supply lines to PEX piping and fittings; adding a Quest fitting going to the drop-ear and tying the water lines into the building's existing copper main water lines.

Pride Plumbing was called out for a rotten egg smell coming from the kitchen area. Our inspection found that the smell was coming from the grease trap when it would empty into its floor drain. We provided a cost estimate to provide quarterly maintenance by using a hydro jet pressure device to keep the main sewer septic lines cleared and adding BioOne drain maintenance product to the kitchen's drains.

Pride Plumbing was called out for a leaking water heater. Our inspection found that there were two A.O. Smith gas water heaters on site, but neither of them was leaking. However, we did find a clogged and overflowing HVAC drain which we believed was causing the issue. We used a ShopVac and cleared the drain. We also provided a cost estimate to replace both water heaters with two new Rheem models (this would include 1) removing and disposing of the old water heaters; 2) installing the new water heaters, water and gas ball shut-off valves, new water and electrical connectors, brass drain valves, atmospheric vents, and thermal expansion tanks; and 3) ensuring that the units are properly vented, lighting their pilots, and setting them to their appropriate operating temperatures).

Pride plumbing came out and provided a cost estimate to replace a section of drain line underneath the house in the crawl space with new PVC piping and fittings for the kitchen sink, washing machine, and bathtub/shower to where it ties into the main sewer drain stack and add strapping to the floor joists for support.
