Sump Pumps Photo Album: Basement Sump Pump Installation in Salt Lake City, UT

This photo album highlights a professionally installed basement sump pump system completed by Davenport Foundation Repair in a Salt Lake City, Utah home. The project took place in a basement cold storage area where water intrusion risk and limited access required a carefully planned and executed solution. The images document each phase of the installation process, starting with concrete removal and trenching to properly route the drainage system. Our crew carefully broke through the basement slab, excavated the soil beneath, and installed new drain piping designed to direct groundwater toward the sump basin. From there, the sump pit was set in place and integrated with the home’s drainage system to actively manage water before it can spread across the basement floor. This type of sump pump installation is especially important for homes along the Wasatch Front, where snowmelt, seasonal runoff, and fluctuating groundwater levels can place pressure on basement foundations. By collecting and redirecting water away from the structure, the system helps protect the foundation, reduce moisture buildup, and prevent long-term issues such as mold growth, musty odors, and structural deterioration.   The completed installation provides the homeowner with a reliable, long-term basement waterproofing solution designed to keep the space dry, functional, and protected year-round.
