Sump Pump Installation for Homeowners in Dallas-Fort Worth, TX
Soil oversaturation is a common cause of home foundation damage in Dallas-Fort Worth. That’s because North Texas has expansive soil, which swells when water is added and shrinks when dried out. Given that soil doesn’t expand or shrink uniformly, the foundation may move unevenly, which can cause it to settle and crack. While wet weather and plumbing leaks can cause moisture gains, poor drainage can be a major contributor to soil oversaturation. To fix drainage issues and protect foundations, Ecoscape Foundation & Home Services installs sump pumps.
What is a Sump Pump?
A sump pump is a specialized pump designed to reduce below-ground saturation. We typically install sump pumps in areas when there is no way to use gravity to drain, or in low areas that hold water. The pump collects groundwater to prevent it water from standing around the foundation and flooding low-lying areas and then pumps the water away from the home.
