Robert Jones Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 Same home as the roof I posted earlier. This sump was installed at the outside of a very wet crawl space. It discharges in the middle of the back yard and will not turn on unless the "lid" is removed. It was obviously an amateurish job. Some channels were dug on the crawl space floor with white pipe(perforated) installed in some locations. What I found kinda amusing is the fact that the pipe is discharging directly under the foundation wall. Here are a few pics for enjoyment. Oh and of course with that constantly wet crawl space, it led to some unwanted insect activity as well.

John Kogel Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 All this rain is good for the skin and it is good for home inspecting. Should be easy to convince the clients that there's trouble there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Jones Posted March 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Yeah this was an easy one. The client followed me all around the crawl cavity. Not a dry spot in that thing, which really made the crawl kinda comfortable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
