The short answer

In Kennett Square, 34% 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.

Sump Pump Repair coverage in Kennett Square, PA

Kennett Square is in Chester County, Pennsylvania. Its ZIP code is 19348. We route sump pump repair calls from 19348.

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.

The one-minute test

Pour a bucket of water into the pit and watch. The pump should start, clear the pit and stop cleanly. FEMA publishes a nine-step annual service built around exactly that.

Checking a plumber in Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania has no state license for plumbers. Its Department of Labor and Industry states it has no jurisdiction and keeps no records of which municipalities require one, so the only reliable answer is your own city or township. Start here. Ask the contractor which municipality licenses them and confirm it with that office before work begins.
