When you need a sump
- Water that collects at one low point and stays
- Drain pipes that need somewhere to empty
- No downhill outlet for gravity drainage
Signs your existing sump needs attention
If your Castle Rock home already has a sump, watch for: the pump running constantly or cycling on and off rapidly; unusual grinding or rattling; water rising in the basin without the pump turning on; or water reappearing in the crawl space after storms. Older pumps, clogged inlets, a failed float switch or a frozen or blocked discharge line are common causes. We'll check the system and recommend the right fix: repair, replacement or additional drainage.
What you get
A basin at the low point, a pump, a discharge line routed away from the house, and a lid with the barrier sealed around it. We'll show you how to check that it's working.
Keep it simple
A single basin at the low spot handles many Castle Rock crawl spaces, and others need drain pipes as well. We'll recommend the simplest setup that does the job.

Simple systems work
For a single low spot, a well-placed basin and pump with a good discharge can solve the problem without a large drainage system.
