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

The short answer

In Malvern, 30% 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.

Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey, table B25034, five-year estimates. A margin of error is published alongside every estimate.

Two things decide whether a sump pump saves a basement. 30% of Malvern homes were built before 1970, which bears on both.

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.

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.
