Frequently Asked Questions

Sump Pump Questions

1How do I know if my sump pump needs repair or replacement?
Warning signs include the pump running constantly or not at all, strange noises, visible rust, frequent cycling, or water in the basement after a storm. If your pump is more than about 7-10 years old, replacement is usually the safer call. A.J. Waterproofing will test your system and give you an honest recommendation.
2Do I need a battery backup sump pump?
Heavy rain and power outages often happen at the same time - which is exactly when your basement is most at risk. A battery backup keeps the pump running when the power is out, and it's one of the most valuable add-ons for homes that rely on a sump system.
3How long does a sump pump last?
Most sump pumps last around 7 to 10 years depending on how often they run and the quality of the unit. Regular testing and a backup system extend the life of the setup and reduce the chance of a surprise failure.
4What size sump pump do I need?
The right size depends on how much water your system has to move and the depth of the pit. A.J. Waterproofing sizes the pump to your home's actual water volume so it isn't underpowered during a heavy storm or short-cycling the rest of the year.
