Work with a local plumbing team that helps protect your property before water damage spreads.
A sump pump system includes more than the pump itself. The pit, float switch, check valve, discharge piping, power supply, drainage path, and backup-power plan all affect whether the system can move water away from vulnerable areas.
Smith Auro Plumbing helps Aurora property owners determine why a sump pump is not operating correctly and whether targeted repair or full sump pump replacement is the better long-term solution. Learn more about our team.

Aurora plumbing specialists for water control, drainage, and property protection.
A sump pump is designed to collect and move groundwater or drainage water from a sump pit to an approved discharge point. Improper installation, incorrect discharge routing, a failed check valve, undersized pump, faulty float, or unsuitable pit can cause the system to fail when it is needed most.
Aurora's code prohibits discharging groundwater, stormwater, roof runoff, subsurface drainage, or other unpolluted drainage into the sanitary sewer. These flows must be directed to approved storm drains or natural outlets as allowed. Related services include water leak detection, drain cleaning, and slab leak detection.
Common sump pump problems Aurora property owners faceβand why they need prompt attention.
A sump pump can fail because of a stuck float, clogged inlet, worn motor, failed switch, blocked discharge pipe, broken check valve, power outage, undersized equipment, or poor pit design. Without reliable pumping, water can collect beneath or inside the building, potentially requiring water damage restoration.
Basement, crawlspace, mechanical-room, or foundation flooding.
Flooring, drywall, insulation, stored property, equipment, and finishes.
Conditions and musty odors from standing water and dampness.
Drainage concerns and potential structural impacts.
Tenant, customer, guest, or operational disruptions.

Sump pumps operate in wet environments and may involve electrical power, standing water, drainage piping, and confined work areas. Improper repairs can create shock hazards, water damage, poor drainage, or repeated pump failure.
Possible causes include a blocked discharge pipe, failed check valve, worn pump, clogged inlet, airlock, or a pump that cannot handle the incoming water volume.
Test it before spring snowmelt and periods of expected heavy moisture, and have it inspected when it makes noise, cycles frequently, fails to start, or shows reduced performance.
No. Aurora prohibits discharge of groundwater, stormwater, surface water, and subsurface drainage into the sanitary sewer.
A backup may be beneficial where water intrusion risk is high or where loss of power could leave the property vulnerable. The right system depends on the property and water demand.
