Pump Problems We Address

Different pumps handle different plumbing tasks, so the cause of a failure can vary. A sump pump might struggle to remove water from a basement or crawl space, while a sewage pump might have trouble moving wastewater. Well pumps also develop problems that affect the property's water supply.

Our plumbers inspect the pump and related plumbing components to find the source of the issue. We then determine what kind of pump service can restore the equipment or if replacement would provide a better long-term option.

Sump Pump Solutions for a Drier Home

A sump pump removes excess water from low areas such as basements and crawl spaces. When it fails, water collects where it should not, especially during heavy rain or rising groundwater levels.

If your sump pump is not starting, running continuously, making unusual sounds, or failing to remove water, our plumbers will inspect it. We will identify the problem and recommend the appropriate repair based on the pump’s condition and your property’s needs.

Sewage Pump Solutions for Reliable Wastewater Flow

Sewage pumps move wastewater when gravity drainage is not available. Since these systems handle wastewater, a malfunction can create serious plumbing concerns for homes and businesses. A failing sewage pump stops wastewater from moving through the system properly.

Our plumbers inspect sewage pump systems and determine why the equipment is not working as expected. We identify issues affecting pump operation and complete the necessary repairs to help restore proper wastewater movement.

Well Pump Services for Consistent Water Flow

A well pump plays an important role in properties that depend on private wells for their water supply. When the pump develops a problem, you might notice low water pressure, inconsistent flow, or a loss of water service.

Helms Plumbing and Drains provides well pump services for properties in our service area. We inspect the system and determine what may be affecting its performance. Then we provide the appropriate repair service needed to restore consistent water supply.

Pump Replacement and New Pump Installation

When a pump is no longer performing reliably, replacement is the best way to restore proper water flow, drainage, or wastewater removal. No matter the type of pump, Helms Plumbing and Drains helps determine whether your property needs a direct pump replacement or a new pump installation. We consider these factors before recommending a solution:

  • Age and overall condition of the existing pump
  • Type and severity of the problem
  • Previous repair history
  • Current pump performance
  • Plumbing requirements of the property
  • Pump capacity and system compatibility
  • Cost and practicality of continued repairs
