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 sewage backing up into the home. We used a water pressure device at an outside cleanout and cleared a blockage in the main outside sewer septic drain line. We then inserted a camera into the drain line to confirm that the blockage had cleared.

Pride Plumbing was called out for sewage backing up into the home. We provided a cost estimate to pull a toilet and insert a camera down through the toilet flange and into the outside main sewer septic drain line to determine its condition.
Pride Plumbing was called out for a water leak at a water heater. Our inspection found that the leak was coming from the water heater's thermal expansion tank. We cut out the old thermal expansion tank and installed a new HydraPro H10000 model, tying the expansion tank into the existing water supply line with new PEX piping and fittings.
Pride Plumbing was called out for low water pressure in the home - the customer had replaced a ball shutoff valve the day before. Our inspection determined that there were multiple fixtures with debris in them. Starting in the bathroom, we removed and cleaned the toilet tank water fill valve's screen, bled water from the bathroom sink faucet's hot- and cold-water supply stops, ran the shower for several minutes and restored water pressure. The kitchen sink faucet was damaged by the debris and needed to be replaced. We provided a cost estimate to replace the faucet with either a new customer supplied model, or a new Pride Plumbing supplied Mainline, Olympia, or Delta model. This would include removing the old faucet, mounting the new faucet and replacing its hot and cold above-floor water supply lines underneath the sink with new braided stainless-steel ones along with replacing the hot and cold water stops.
Pride Plumbing came out and called in our septic pumping truck, uncovered the home’s septic tank, removed both of its lids, pumped out the solids and liquids sides of the tank, cleaned the tank’s filter, ensured proper drainage and flushing, reset the lid, and covered the tank back up.
