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.
- Corrosion and mineral buildup may occur if the unit is not flushed every six months.
- Product overload is possible if the heater was improperly sized or is subjected to heavy use.

Pride Plumbing was called out for none of the toilets in the home flushing properly. Our inspection determined that the customer's septic tank was full. We provided a cost estimate to call in our septic pump, uncover the septic tank, pump it out, install septic tank risers (so that the tank’s access covers are at ground level for better future access), and cover the tank back up. We also provided a cost estimate to replace a 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 no hot water pressure. Our investigation determined that the issue was being caused by a faulty gate valve at the water heater. We cut out the old gate valve, sweated on a copper to PEX fitting, and put in a new PEX ball valve. After installing the new ball valve, turning the water back on, and testing for leaks, everything was working properly. We also provided cost estimates to 1) replace the water heater with a new 40-gallon electric Rheem model (this would include removing and disposing of the old water heater; installing the new water heater, new ball water shut-off valves, new PEX and stainless steel water supply lines to the water heater's water connections, a new brass drain valve, connecting the unit’s electrical connections, ensuring that the unit was properly vented, and setting it to its appropriate operating temperature); and 2) replace a toilet with a new Gerber Viper model (this would include inspecting/cleaning/replacing the flange, rep

Pride Plumbing was called out for sewage backing up into the home. Our inspection determined that the customer's septic tank was full. We provided a cost estimate to call in our septic pump, uncover the septic tank, pump it out, install septic tank risers (so that the tank’s access covers are at ground level for better future access), and cover the tank back up. We also provided a cost estimate to repipe and replace the water supply and drain lines in the crawlspace, going to all the fixtures in the home, with new PEX and PVC piping respectively; installing new fittings and supports under the house for each fixture.

Pride Plumbing was called out for sewage backing up into the building. We used a pressure device at an outside cleanout and cleared a blockage in the main outside sewer septic drain line. We inserted a camera into the drain line and it revealed that the it was terra cotta and had damage from roots.

Pride Plumbing was called out for a water leak behind a toilet. Our inspection found that the leak was on the toilet tank's polyethylene water supply line where a SharkBite shutoff valve had been installed. We cut out the SharkBite shutoff valve and short sections of the polyethylene water line and replaced them with new PEX piping and fittings and a new supply stop. We also installed a new above-floor braided stainless steel water supply line from the supply stop to the toilet tank.
