I start of by stating that all of this was done with a Licensed plumber.
Here's what happened:
We made a hole and installed a sump pump in one corner.
when we dug, water started coming out like crazy, so we went with a stronger sump pump.
Although we did this, there was still water coming up so we went 10 feet away and installed another sump pump.
So now we had two pumps pumping.
Water now looks clear and is cold and seems to be from an underground stream and the pumps seem to be working consistently all the time and is pumping outside.
How do we find where this is coming from?
we tested sprinlkler system, internal water valves, and are trying the process of elimination.
We cant get a hold of our plumber and our friend, who we basically did this for as a favor, except for the plumber's fee, which was paid to him, is understandably upset.
Is there any way for us to temporarily stop or plug the flow until our plumber or another one comes tomorrow morning?
How do we find streams underground and is there a simple way of plugging up the flow or diverting them?
Thank you.
