A sump pump drains excess or unwanted water from a home. The water could be from a broken pipe or a flood. The pump pulls the water from the home and discharges it into the home’s waste water system.

In the Houston area, you should consider a sump pump if your home is in an area with a constant flood risk, that often experiences heavy rain and floods, or in an area with a high water table. A sump pump can help protect your property. 

It can clear water from your crawl space or lower level and keep your foundation dry. 

Having a sump pump can prevent or minimize expensive flood damage. By draining excess water, the sump pump can prevent mold and mildew formation and speed up the water damage restoration process. 

A sump pump can also reduce the risk of electrical fires caused by sparks when water touches an open line or junction box.
