Why is Sump Pump Drainage so Important?
Many homes in Delaware, Maryland, DC, and Virginia have a sump pump that prevents water from damaging the basement by displacing standing water away from the foundation. They can be powered by either electricity or the existing pressurized water system. Regardless, they protect your investment from water damage caused by nature when draining properly. If you are able to prevent water from dampening your basement early, the damage is usually minimal and not too big of a deal. Should you not discover the problem right away, you run the risk of more serious destruction. You may need to replace walls, paint, doors, carpet, or other components resulting in an inconvenient cost at an unanticipated time.
