< trying 2 coax a SMILE on Eeyores face 
So I am a tad curious where the water is came in from & I a$$ume you had an inspection on the house but they can't detect stuff like that probably
There are two 4" pipes feeding into the well. I **think** one of them drains the gutters from the house, and the other is draining the gutters from the garage as well as an in-ground pipe to prevent water from pooling in the backyard. Talking to some of the neighbors about various water issues, I understand what they're trying to do, but they maybe didn't account for the sheer volume of water that could potentially come in. When it rains normal Seattle style, water will trickle in and the sump pump has no problem keeping up. When it rains 1.5"-2" in a 90 minute time, there's just too much water to pump out.
Inspector noted water damage from past flood, which was attributed to a failed sump pump, rather than a flawed design.
