Sump Pump - Part 2 (thelemmy.club)

Finally got the sump pump installed. Hardest part was digging the hole which was 22" of mostly rock with a little clay mixed in. No more leaky basement!

That must have been a royal pain in the ass digging in a confined space like that. Good job.

The space wasn't as bad as you'd think. Breaking up rocks a few inches at a time with a rotary hammer and scooping it out with a post hole digger was the "fun" part.
