Sump Pump Problems Richmond Problems With Your Sump Pump? Kefficient Can Help

In Richmond, a sump pump can be a lifesaver for your home. It's the first and last line of defense of any basement waterproofing system. A good sump pump will expel water collected from an interior or exterior drainage system as it comes into your basement or crawlspace. But if that pump fails, your basement can quickly fill up with water.

What are the Signs
of a Problem With my Sump Pump?

When spotting signs of a failing sump pump, Kefficient is here to help. Below are some of the most common warning signs a sump pump needs repair:

It's An Old Unit

Most sump pumps only last around ten years. Even if your pump isn't having noticeable issues, you don't want your unit dying during an emergency.

Overflowing

If you think your sump pump is having trouble, watch it when it rains. If the water is getting too high or spilling over, your pump has an issue.

Running All The Time

If your sump pump runs a lot, it means either the unit is blocked or is simply not strong enough to handle the water coming into the system. This is an urgent issue that needs to be repaired ASAP.

It Doesn't Sound Right

If you listen to your pump and it starts to make strange noises or run loudly, there may be an issue. OR if your pump is too quiet, and not turning on while it's raining, it's time to repair it or replace it.

Broken Lid

If your sump pump has a broken lid or none, it must be replaced. Dirt and debris can get inside the pump, causing clogs, slowing it down, and damaging the unit.

    We were beyond surprised when our 6 month old home developed mold in the crawl space. A friend had recommended Mark Keffer and KEFFICIENT. We could not have asked for a more professional team to walk us through the process. The work was completed in a timely manner…actually sooner than promised. The team performing the encapsulation of the crawl space was excellent and completed the work in less than a week. We would not hesitate to recommend KEFFICIENT for your crawl space issues.

    From our initial contact with Kefficient, to evaluation of our needs for repair with Brad, through the repair process with Mark, the service was exceptional. Communication was strong throughout the process, the installers were friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. The finished project was exactly as promised, as well as billing. I strongly recommend their services.

    I am very satisfied with the work Kefficient recently did on my home. Brad came out and assessed my property. He was very kind and professional and explained everything to me. He followed up with me several times and provided the best customer service. Eddie and his crew completed the project with ease and proficiency. They were absolutely amazing and kind. They showed professionalism at all times and the project was completed on time and it looked great. I highly recommend the Kefficient team for your household mold restoration needs.

    I cannot say enough good about my experience with Kefficient. They did a wonderful job on my project starting with the first visit from Brad. He was very professional and informative about my crawl space problem and found mold that a previous company failed to find and notify me. Eddie’s crew did a super job and were very hard working. At the end of each day everything was cleaned up. Mark the owner was here almost every day with updates and to answer any questions or concerns I might have. This is a very honest and hard-working company that I fully trust for not cutting corners but doing an exceptional job. They cleaned up mold and encapsulation my crawl space including a sunk pump and a dehumidifier and two new crawl space doors.

    They care about doing good quality work. I had a moldy crawlspace needing lots of attention. The team at Kefficient made sure to follow through without cutting corners. Give them a call if you want a contractor who cares.

    We used Kefficient for mold remediation and basement crawl space encapsulation. They are one of the few companies that we have used for house projects that consistently communicated about the progress of job (we are so grateful for this). Super professional, thorough and tidy.
