What Is a Sump Pump and How Does It Work?


A sump pump sits in a specially designed basin in your basement or crawl space. When water collects around your foundation or in the soil, it’s funneled into this pit. Once the water reaches a certain level, the sump pump activates, pumping the water out and away from your home through a discharge pipe.

This process keeps your basement dry and prevents costly damage to drywall, flooring, and your home’s structural foundation.

Types of Sump Pumps We Install in Hillsborough Homes


Choosing the right pump matters. We help you select the best fit based on your home, usage, and flood risk:

Submersible Pumps: These are installed directly in the pit and can handle large volumes of water. They're quiet, powerful, and ideal for finished basements.
Pedestal Pumps: With motors above the pit, they’re easier to maintain and last longer in dry areas.
Battery Backup Pumps: Automatically take over during power outages. Critical for heavy storms and older electrical systems.
Water-Powered Pumps: Use municipal water pressure to pump out water without electricity. Great for eco-conscious homes.
