Crawl Space Sump Pump for Macon homeowners
A sump pump is the answer to one specific question. Where does the water go once it has arrived under your house? On a lot with slope, gravity answers that. On flat ground, or where the crawl space sits below the surrounding grade, there is no answer without a pump.
In Macon both situations exist within a few miles of each other. Homes on the Piedmont side often have enough fall for a gravity drain. Homes on the lower ground toward the Ocmulgee usually do not, and those are the ones where a basin and pump become the core of the system.
The install is a basin set into the low point of the crawl space, drainage lines feeding it from the perimeter, a pump sized to the volume, and a discharge line routed far enough from the house that the water does not soak back. We add a check valve so the line does not drain back into the basin, and battery backup where a failure would mean a flooded crawl space.
Here is what our crawl space sump pump work includes on a Macon home, in town or out toward the Bibb County line.
- Properly sized for your crawl space
- Battery backup options for storm outages
- Reliable, professional installation
- Keeps water moving away from your foundation
