Anatomy of A Sump Pump By SERVPRO of Portage County

A sump pump is installed in the lowest level of a building or residence.  The sump pump eliminates moisture and decreases static pressure on the exterior walls, preventing water intrusion. Understanding how a sump pump works can help determine if the sump is working properly.

When flooding occurs from a sump pump failure the first step is to repair the sump pump to stop the water from intruding into the residence.  The next step is to contact SERVPRO of Portage County to begin emergency water damage restoration services.  We are here 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  Call us today 330-677-4483
