What it usually is
Common causes are a stuck float switch, a clogged intake or a pump that has simply worn out. There is no posted flat rate for sump pumps yet, so we quote the job first.
What to do first
Check that the pump is plugged in and the breaker has not tripped. If water is rising, move belongings up off the floor and call or text us.
The flat rate that covers it
- Diagnosis / service call (plumbing or electrical): $79
- Anything else: $90/hr
South Hill, around Puyallup, is mostly newer subdivisions, townhomes and apartments built in recent decades along with some older homes. Newer South Hill homes usually have modern supply lines and fixtures, so calls tend to be fixtures, water heaters and breaker or outlet work rather than failed pipe.
