Questions customers ask

What does drain tile do?

Drain tile is designed to collect groundwater around or beneath the foundation and direct it toward a drainage point such as a sump basin.

When should a sump pump be checked?

If the pump is not operating, is making unusual sounds, or water is collecting where it should not, it is worth having the system evaluated.
