Most Highlands Ranch homes have basements, and many of them are finished living space, so water in the lowest level is expensive. Douglas County’s clay soils hold water after heavy rain and spring snowmelt, and that water presses against foundation walls and floors. Many homes here have a sump pit that collects it, and the pump in that pit is what keeps it out of the house.
Pour a bucket of water into the pit. If the pump doesn't start within seconds, call us. We'll test it and tell you if it needs a repair or a replacement. Get A Quote · (720)-938-1554
We match the pump's capacity to how much water your pit actually collects, and install it with a properly placed float switch so it doesn't short-cycle.
We remove the old pump, clean the pit and install a new submersible pump. Most swaps take a couple of hours.
A backup pump keeps working when the power goes out in a storm, which is exactly when the main pump is needed most.
A failed check valve lets pumped water fall back into the pit and keeps the pump cycling. We replace it as part of every install.
We route the discharge line so water drains well away from your foundation and doesn't freeze in winter. Discharge lines must not connect to the sanitary sewer.
We test the pump, float and backup, and clear debris from the pit before spring runoff.
