How We Work

Our Sump Pump Installation Process

  1. 1

    Assess the water intrusion pattern

    We determine where water enters, how it collects, and what pump capacity and pit size are needed to manage it effectively.

  2. 2

    Install the sump pit

    We excavate and form the sump pit at the low point of the space, set the basin liner, and establish the correct aggregate bedding for drainage.

  3. 3

    Install the pump and float switch

    We set the pump at the correct height, install the float switch at the right activation level, and connect the pump to power with a dedicated outlet.

  4. 4

    Route the discharge line

    The discharge line is routed to daylight — away from the foundation and sloped to prevent freeze-back. We install the check valve to prevent backflow into the pit.

  5. 5

    Test under simulated load

    We pour water into the pit, confirm activation and shutoff at the correct levels, and verify the discharge is flowing where it should.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about sump pump installation in the Redlands area.

Does Redlands Heights really have groundwater issues?
Some areas do, particularly on hillside lots where surface water channels toward foundations during Inland Empire rain seasons. If you've seen water in your crawl space or basement, a sump pump is worth serious consideration.
What size sump pump do I need?
Pump capacity is measured in GPH (gallons per hour) at a given head height. We calculate the volume you need to manage and recommend accordingly — not just the cheapest unit that fits the hole.
Do I need a battery backup sump pump?
If your area loses power during heavy storms — which is exactly when you need the pump most — a battery backup makes a lot of sense. We include it in the discussion and quote it separately.
Where does the discharge water go?
It's routed to daylight away from the foundation — typically to the yard, a drain, or the street. We don't discharge toward a neighbor's property or back toward the house.
Can a sump pump handle a serious water intrusion problem alone?
A sump pump manages water that enters. If the source is a significant foundation or drainage issue, waterproofing or grading work addresses the root cause. We'll be honest about what a pump can and can't solve.
