Why Waterproof Your Crawl Space?

There are several ways water and moisture can find their way into the crawl space of your New Jersey home. One of the most common sources of crawl space moisture is leaking pipes or improperly routed gutters. But it's not just leaking water that can be problematic. Any moisture can lead to disaster! From humidity to evaporation to even wet dirt, here are some of the methods moisture may find its way into your crawl space:

Broken, misrouted, or undersized rain gutters
Leaky plumbing
Leaky windows or vents
Humidity, leading to condensation
Improper yard drainage
Melted snow or rainwater
Moisture in the dirt

But why does crawl space water and moisture matter? Pooled water and moist air in your crawl space inevitably cause rot in the wood joists and supports of the floor above the crawl space, leading to their eventual collapse. In addition, high humidity in the crawl space leads to mold, which can produce spores that irritate and even cause allergies for homeowners. That is why it's so important to properly waterproof your crawl space, including installing a battery backup sump pump.

Do You Need a Crawl Space Battery Backup Sump Pump?

To put it simply, yes! Everyone with a crawl space should install a battery backup pump as part of their waterproofing plan. While your primary sump pump is wired directly to your home's electrical system, a battery backup pump is just that — it runs on battery. So if a power outage ever causes your primary pump to stop working, you can have the peace of mind that your battery backup pump is still keeping your crawl space safe and dry.

A battery backup pump offer many benefits, but not every battery backup sump pump is built equally. Blue Umbrella only installs the highest quality sump pumps to protect your New Jersey home.

How Much Does a Crawl Space Battery Backup Sump Pump Cost?

The price of battery backup sump pump installation in your crawl space will depend primarily on the size of your crawl space in your New Jersey home and the severity of the water issues. With larger crawl spaces or more intense water problems, we may recommend installing a higher-capacity sump pump or even two sump pumps on opposite ends of the crawl space.

While a higher-capacity sump pump or second pump costs more upfront, avoiding the expensive costs of water damage repair makes the better pump, the safer, lower-cost option.
