A sump pump is generally used to pump water out of an area that does not have enough elevation to gravity drain. A sump pump generally consist of a sump, sump pump, check valve, valve box, and a high water alarm (to alert the homeowner that the water is too high), and an outtake pipe. When necessary, sump pumps will be included in a French drain project, where the slope is not great enough.
'Recently I had a retaining wall replaced by Bay Area Drainage - I was very impressed by the company and their work. The price was very reasonable and the workmen were the nicest I have ever met. They were very polite and when the job was completed the area was left very neat and clean. I would not hesitate to recommend Bay Area Drainage very highly to anybody .'
