When do you need a sump pump installed?

Whenever you have an area which is below surface ground level and is capable of retaining water. For example: A basement or crawl space beneath a home or building, a pitched driveway delivery dock and even a low spot in the yard can utilize a sump pump. Sump pumps to need to be replaced over time, but the frequency is not easily gauged.

F your sump pump overflows due to a power outage does your insurance cover it?

Unfortunately, we are learning the hard way after Hurricane Irene that insurance does not cover for damages caused by sump pump failure due to a power outage. NOT happy about it, but we continue to work with the wet vac and fans, de-humidifiers. After some research, I have found that some insurance companies do offer a separate clause for this. Generators or battery back-ups for sump pumps seem to be the way to go. That will be our next investment after replacing what we will end up losing.
