A reliable sump pump is the first line of defense for your Denver basement, especially during the spring snowmelt and heavy summer storms. At Befort Plumbing & Heating, we specialize in the installation, repair, and maintenance of sump pump systems to keep your home dry and protect your foundation.
Professional plumbing repairs, installations, and maintenance tailored to your home and budget.
In the Denver Metro area, many homes are built in areas with high water tables or expansive clay soils. A sump pump sits in a basin at the lowest point of your basement and automatically kicks in when water levels rise, pumping the water safely away from your home’s foundation.
Prevent Flooding: Stops water from seeping into finished basements.
Reduce Mold & Mildew: Keeps moisture levels low, protecting your air quality.
Foundation Protection: Prevents hydrostatic pressure from cracking your basement walls.
Because heavy rain often comes with power outages, we highly recommend a battery backup sump pump. This secondary system ensures that even if the lights go out, your basement stays dry. We can install integrated systems that alert you if the primary pump fails or if the battery is running low.
For high performance and reliability, the Liberty Pumps 257 is a professional-grade choice. It features a cast iron housing for superior heat dissipation and a vertical float switch designed for smaller sump pits.
Horsepower: 1/3 HP
Material: Heavy-duty cast iron
Best For: Standard residential basement protection

Most high-quality sump pumps have a lifespan of 7 to 10 years. Because these are mechanical devices submerged in water, we recommend testing your pump annually to ensure it triggers correctly before the heavy rain or snowmelt seasons.
A pump that never stops may have a stuck float switch, a broken check valve, or could be undersized for the volume of water entering your basin. It is important to have this inspected quickly to prevent the motor from burning out.
Yes. Severe Denver storms often cause power outages exactly when you need your pump most. A battery backup ensures your basement remains protected even when the main power is out or if the primary pump fails.
You should regularly check the sump pit for debris, ensure the discharge pipe isn’t blocked or frozen, and pour a bucket of water into the pit to verify the pump triggers and empties the water efficiently.
Foul odors usually occur if the “trap” in the pit dries out or if there is stagnant water and debris buildup. Professionally cleaning the pit and ensuring the check valve is working can usually resolve these smells.
