If you are experiencing any of the following issues with your sump pump, call Rooter Guard right away to schedule a Top Rated Sump Pump Installation and Replacement:
Age
The average lifespan of a sump pump is around ten years. Once your sump pump begins approaching ten years of age and experiencing frequent repairs, you will likely need to have Rooter Guard replace your sump pump with a newer one.
Sump Pump Will Not Run
Any time your sump pump will not turn on and run, unfortunately, you have a major issue on your hands. There are actually a number of reasons that your sump pump may be experiencing power issues including the float switch being stuck or broken, a jammed impeller, a potential loose electrical connection, a burnt motor, or your sump pump has just plain hit the end of its lifespan. Whatever the case, if your pump is older and not running, you may need to think about Pro Sump Pump Installation and Replacement Services from Rooter Guard.
Contrarily, if your sump pump is always running, and never seems to turn off, this is also an issue! This is normally due to a float switch issue, which will need professional assistance from Rooter Guard. If your sump pump is not turning on at all or running constantly, repairs can be possible, but you may need to start thinking about replacing the machine completely.
Odd Noises and Vibrations
Any time your sump pump is making loud noises such as grinding, banging, rattling, or vibrating, you are almost guaranteed to have a serious issue. These noises are indicative of a problem with your sump pump and will require a diagnosis from Rooter Guard in which you may want to consider fully replacing the sump pump all together.
Irregular Cycling
Irregular cycling of your sump pump can occur for a multitude of reasons such as a broken float switch or the float valve being too low. No matter the case, irregular cycling, particularly in conjunction with any of the other listed symptoms, is never a good sign and will need to be addressed by plumbing professionals at Rooter Guard as soon as possible!
Clogged Pump
Debris can naturally flow and build up in your sump pump, leading to a pretty severe clog over time! Clogs can damage the impeller fan in your sump pump which will detrimentally affect your system. Additionally, the pump line hose can also become clogged with sediment and debris, causing major issues for your sump pump. No matter the issue, you will need to consult with Rooter Guard about repair and possibly replacement options.
Empty Water Pit
Unfortunately, many homeowners get taken advantage of by inadequate plumbers around the area, leading to incorrect installation of their home’s sump pump system. If there is no water in the pit but your sump pump is still running, your sump pump was likely installed incorrectly and will need to be corrected and potentially even replaced by the plumbing experts that you can trust at Rooter Guard.

Why do I need a backup sump pump?
It can be a very good idea to have a backup sump pump for times of crisis. If your home experiences a flood, your backup sump pump will take action and could prevent a lot more damage than what may already occur, saving you a lot of valuable time, stress, and money.
What is the average life expectancy of a sump pump?
The average life expectancy of a sump pump is typically around 10 years. Have a Rooter Guard expert perform maintenance on your sump pump at least once a year to significantly lengthen your pump’s lifespan.
Is it normal for a sump pump to run continuously?
It is normal for your sump pump to run continuously. Sump pumps run, or “kick on,” as they are needed. So, if you notice it seems like your pump is running all of the time, there is a reason for it. It’s important to note though, if you suspect your sump pump is running more than necessary, or any time you notice any abnormal behavior from your pump, call Rooter Guard to have it serviced. You can never be too cautious!
Will my sump pump work if the power is out?
No, your sump pump will most likely not work if the power is out in your home. Most sump pumps require electrical power to operate. You can however, install certain devices like a battery backup unit which will operate a secondary pump using battery power.
Do I need to clean my sump pump?
Yes, you will periodically need to clean your sump pump. While sump pumps don’t have filters, you will still need to clean their openings or screens from time to time – at least every few months. Additionally, if necessary, you may need to oil the pump’s parts. It’s important to have an expert at Rooter Guard perform yearly maintenance on your sump pump as well. At this time, they will be happy to help clean your sump pump, as well.
Our customers love our services. Real Reviews from Real Customers.
Absolutely fantastic service! This plumbing company went above and beyond to solve our issue quickly and efficiently. The team was incredibly professional, punctual, and knowledgeable, taking the time to explain everything in detail. They left the workspace spotless and ensured everything was working perfectly before they left. Fair pricing and exceptional customer care make them stand out from the rest. Highly recommend to anyone looking for reliable and top tier plumbing services!
We hire them for any plumbing work we have! Very reasonable prices, excellent service, and quick response times. They’re also really up front and explain everything very well. We’ve had really bad experiences with other plumbing companies in the SFV, and were very fortunate to find Rooter Guard. 100% recommend!
A burst water heater caused damage in our garage, but Rooter Guard acted quickly to assess, remove the old unit, and install a new tankless system. During the process, they fixed several plumbing issues. The technicians—Johnny, Erik, John, Victor, and Kirk—were communicative and thorough. I’d gladly use them again.
Johnny and Andy were great! We had a complicated problem: stopped up sewer because of tree roots along with 50 year old cast iron pipes. They had to install a clean out at the blockage, repair a broken pipe and then clear the tree roots with hydrojet. Everything’s running smoothly now! These guys are such hard workers and so good-natured. They were upfront about everything and the price was fair. We highly recommend this team! Update! Just had our kitchen sink drain cleaned, technician was prompt, tried one rooter, then another larger one, that did the trick, cleared drain, water flowing great. You guys are the best!
Repiping replaces old or failing pipes with new materials that last longer. Homes with frequent leaks, rust colored water, or declining pressure reach a stage where patching is no longer enough. New piping restores the entire system.
