Your work is progressing well. One suggestion: put the check valve for your sump pump below the surface of the floor --in the pit right on the pump. Last year the connection on my pump failed, and all the water was discharging IN the basement.


Good Luck


Thanks for the suggestion. I actually had mine go bad about 3 months ago. The PO/builder used the wrong size valve and the contortion and twisting over the years tore the rubber and sprayed the stuff all over the floor. I was able to fix it without too much trouble, but a PIA nonetheless.

Plumber was here today and got started on the vent pipes and running the copper. We'll finish it up on Friday.

I'll get some drywall put up today.

Thanks for the comments, everyone.
