Well and Sump Pumps

Discover how consequences of sump pump failures can extend beyond the pump to appliances, HVAC equipment, and structural components.

Discover how our mechanical engineer’s assessment found the source of basement water damage using onsite evidence, weather data, and more in our latest case study.

These five questions about reported sump pump failures and the water damage that may follow can better equip you to accurately resolve these claims.

Learn how sump pumps work to protect basements from water damage, causes and consequences of their failure, and more in this illustrated guide.

Here’s what you need to know to handle sump pump failure claims, which may include both the device and the structure it’s in.

These strategies will help make settling well pump claims easier, faster and less costly to get the water flowing again.
