Sump pumps calls

Sump pump calls before and after the storm

Sump pump demand spikes with weather. Callers are usually watching water rise and want to know how fast someone can get there.

What these callers describe

  • Pump not running or cycling constantly
  • Water rising in the pit or on the floor
  • Battery backup or second pump requested
  • Discharge line frozen or blocked

Callers in this category are describing an active problem, not researching options. By the time they dial, they have already decided they need a plumbing company — the conversation is about scope and scheduling, not persuasion.
