Why does the sump pump in my basement run all the time when it rains?
When this happens it is usually because the water being discharged from your downspouts has no place to drain or the ground around your house may need to be graded so water runs away from the walls towards the street. You may contact the Sewer Department at 301-759-6426 for additional assistance.
