My current home is the only home that I've ever lived in with a sump pump. I guess I should have assumed so, but did not realize that they should be routinely inspected. I'm currently having issues with mine after a heavy storm a week and a half ago. A number of times in the past week, the water will backup, but as soon as I give the pipe leading to the pump even a slight tap, the pump will turn on and work for at least a few hours, if not a day or so.
If the issue is something that I can check or do myself then I would prefer to save the money and not have to get a plumber over here. Any ideas or checklists that I can go through to see if it's something I can fix myself?
