That reminds me of a time I was convinced the sump pump had failed because water kept showing up after every rain. I tore into the thing, replaced the float, even checked the discharge line for clogs. Turns out, the downspout extension had popped off and was dumping water right next to the foundation—felt pretty silly after all that. Ever notice if your gutters are overflowing or if the grading’s changed around your place? Sometimes it’s just a little shift in the landscape that causes a big headache.
