Sump Pump Cleaning FAQs
Why should I clean my sump pump?
Cleaning prevents blockages and keeps your system working efficiently. Dirt and debris can cause clogs or motor strain that leads to costly repairs.
How often should I clean my sump pump?
Once or twice a year, depending on usage and water quality. Alfie can schedule cleaning alongside your regular service.
What happens during a cleaning appointment?
Your engineer removes sludge, debris and sediment from the pit and checks that valves, float switches and impellers are clear and working properly.
How much does sump pump cleaning cost?
A professional clean usually costs £100 to £200, depending on the pump size and access. You’ll always see a fixed price before confirming.
Can I clean my sump pump myself?
You can remove light debris, but for safety and efficiency, a professional clean is recommended. Engineers use proper equipment to avoid damage to internal components.
What are signs my pump needs cleaning?
Slow drainage, noisy operation, or foul smells indicate build up inside the pit. Book a clean promptly to prevent pump failure.
Do you offer combined clean and service visits?
Yes. Alfie can combine cleaning with your annual service to save time and cost.
