Sump pump repair in Manassas, VA

Your sump pump likely needs repair if it runs constantly, makes grinding noises, or stays silent during a rainstorm. Standing water or a damp pit floor in your Manassas basement is another clear sign.

A pump that runs without stopping usually has a stuck float switch or a check valve that is letting discharged water flow back into the pit. Underground Pipe Solutions can inspect the float and valve to find the cause in your Fairfax home.

A battery backup protects your basement when the power goes out during a storm, which is exactly when your primary pump is needed most. Homes in Alexandria and Burke that have flooded before benefit most from adding a backup to an existing system.
