Sump Pump Repair Services in Orange County, CA

A light rainstorm in Orange County, CA might be an excuse to stay indoors and relax while small puddles form on the sidewalk outside. But when the rain is falling heavily, it can cause you to have some anxiety about your home, especially if you have experienced flooding before. Walking into a room on the lowest level of the home and finding your foot standing on wet carpet is anything but relaxing.

If you have a sump pump, it is there to help prevent your home from flooding even during heavy rain storms. But a broken sump pump isn’t going to do your house much good. At Moffett Plumbing & Air, we work to identify and fix sump pump problems in homes all across the Orange County area. You can call us any time for sump pump repair services near you.

Protecting Your Home From Flooding

A sump pump is a device that can both detect and remove water from the lowest part of your house. While many homes in areas such as Anaheim and Huntington Beach do not have basements, if you do have a basement or a crawl space, there is a good chance you also have a sump pump. When it rains heavily outside, any moisture that seeps into the basement or crawl space will drain into the sump pump, filling it up and triggering it to turn on. It will then pump the water away from your home and foundation.

Sump pumps are important in homes with frequent moisture or flooding problems because they can protect your home from long-term consequences of flooding such as water damage and mold growth. If you already have a sump pump, it will need to be maintained frequently and repaired when needed to keep it working at all times in case of a storm. That is where our sump pump services in Yorba Linda and nearby areas come in.

What Are the Signs That You Need a Sump Pump Repair?

It’s important to stay on top of sump pump repairs because you never know when a storm might hit Orange County. You don’t want to be caught in a downpour with a sump pump that isn’t working. That’s why it’s important to test it often and to call as soon as you notice problems.

You can test your sump pump by filling up a bucket of water, pouring it into your sump pump pit, and then watching how it gets rid of the water. Watch for how quickly the water disappears and listen to the sounds that your sump pump makes while it operates. Here are the most common sump pump problems that you might notice:

  • Your Sump Pump is Making Concerning Noises: When your sump pump runs it should make a quiet humming sound. If the sump pump is making a sloshing sound like a laundry machine, a grinding metal on metal sound, or a rattling sound, it’s time to call for plumbing repairs.
  • Your Sump Pump Is Vibrating: Your sump pump should always run smoothly. If it is vibrating while it runs, it needs repairs.
  • Your Sump Pump Shows Visible Signs of Disrepair: You should never be able to see any signs of rust or damage on any part of your sump pump. If you do notice that your sump pump doesn’t look right anymore, give us a call.
  • Your Sump Pump Is Running Even When There Is No Water: Your sump pump should only run when there is water in the pit. If there is no water but the sump pump is still running, you’ll need sump pump services right away.
  • Your Sump Pump Won’t Turn On: Of course, if you pour water into your sump pump and nothing happens, that means your sump pump is broken. We can troubleshoot the problem and determine if your sump pump needs repairs or a replacement.
