Waterproofing in New Franklin: Questions

How do I know if my New Franklin sump pump needs replacing?

Pour a bucket of water into the pit: the pump should start, empty it and shut off. Replace it if it hums without pumping, cycles rapidly or runs with the pit empty. Fixr puts replacement in an existing pit at $350 to $1,000.
