Basement flooding from sump pump failure
Why it happens here
Sump pumps in Chesterfield often fail during heavy rain or spring snowmelt. The pumps are old or undersized, and the clay soil directs water to the foundation. When the pump stops, water accumulates fast.
Our approach
We extract the water, dry the basement, and replace the pump. We also install a backup pump and recommend a battery backup to prevent future failures. We check the discharge line for clogs.
