We all know that house floods can be a real pain, but imagine a sewage water flood! Sewer flooding is inconvenient, costly to clean up and recover damage and very dangerous for your health. Protect your Toronto and GTA home and your family by installing a backwater valve. This is a valve that is designed to prevent water from flowing backward. When attached to the sewer line, it ensures that wastewater stays out of your home, no matter what.

By calling your plumber for a backwater valve installation, you will enjoy the following benefits:

1) Protection during Heavy Rainfalls

In the event of heavy rainstorms, the municipal sewage system may be overwhelmed and cause flows to switch directions. If you don’t have a backwater valve installed, wastewater may end up in your home.

A backwater valve installation can be completed by a professional Rooter-Man GTA plumber quickly and efficiently. The valve will either be installed on the sewer itself, in your basement (under the flooring) or in a small utility closet. The instrument contains a disc that is designed to keep your sewer pipes from opening and letting sewage water enter your drainage system. This way, you can be sure that wastewater stays outside where it belongs, even as water levels rise.

2) Preventative Maintenance

Making the effort to call a plumber to complete a backwater valve installation may seem expensive and inconvenient at first; however, thinking long term can save you plenty of money and time.

This device will ultimately protect your home and save you thousands of dollars in cleanup and repairs. After all, sewer flooding can damage almost everything in the home—from your flooring and carpeting to your walls and furniture. By doing some preventative maintenance now, you don’t have to worry about frantically calling an emergency plumber later on when it’s too late.

So go ahead and Google ‘drain services near me’ to find a plumber that can offer backwater valve installation. This way, you don’t have to deal with days of flood damage cleanup and sewer line repair later on, which will cost much more than what you’ll spend installing the devices necessary to avert disaster in the first place.
