Free to homeowners in Chelsea — the contractor pays us for the introduction, you never do.

The short answer

In Chelsea, 66% of housing predates 1970. A sump pump that cycles every few seconds is usually a float or a check valve rather than a failing motor, and where the discharge may go is set by the municipality.

What this site is

Pit and Pump is a referral service, not a contractor. We connect homeowners with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands, and a discharge connection is usually a permitted alteration — ask to see the permit. We carry out no work, we sell no equipment, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything — the contractors in our network pay us when we route them a call.

What happens when the power goes

The storm that floods a basement is the storm that takes the power out. A battery backup or a water-powered secondary is the only part of this that works without a grid.

Where the discharge is allowed to go

Into a storm system, onto grade, or into a dry well — and which of those is permitted is set by the municipality, not by the plumber. Connecting a sump to the sanitary sewer is prohibited almost everywhere.
