Backwater Valve & Sump Pump

SUMP PUMP

If your home is susceptible to flooding, the sump pump method is a great way of ensuring water is displaced from your basement. The wet basement will soon be a thing of the past. Have you already experienced flooding? Even the smallest amounts can lead to mould and mildew. The sump pump is a great solution to your waterproofing needs for your Georgetown home!

The pump can work on its own without power, so that even during blackouts, your house is protected against flooding. New technology has allowed for great improvements to be made to the sump pump installation process and function.

The old method of drainage had the weeping tile of your home connected to your drainage system. That system isn’t able to keep up with the larger volumes of rainfall we are seeing, all but guaranteeing your home will eventually flood due to improper maintenance.

Get ahead of the problem – implement a waterproofing system for your home. Call us for details.

 

WHY INSTALL A SUMP PUMP?

A sump pump is one popular solution in meeting the flooding that is accompanying the changing climate and increased rainfall head on. The increase in rainfall that we are all seeing makes basements that are not sufficiently waterproofed more susceptible to flooding. City sewer systems are having a tougher time keeping up with the larger volumes of water.

Sump pumps provide a long-term solution to keep your basements dry and protect your home’s foundation. Canada Waterproofers Georgetown can help with any sump pump installation. We can answer any questions you may have. Contact us today for more details about having your Georgetown basement equipped with a sump pump

INSTALLATION PROCESS

Due to global climate change, there has been more precipitation, and Southern Ontario certainly hasn’t been spared. Heavy rains and snowfall has pushed the existing sewer infrastructure to its limits and the result has been more flooding. In particular, residential basements have been impacted. In fact, in 2013, the insurance industry spent about $1 billion in repairs to client’s flooded basements and replacing personal possessions. Insurance companies, along with municipalities, now encourage homeowners to install mainline backwater valves.

A backwater valve is device that prevents outbound water from the home to re-enter through the home’s drain pipes. The valve prevents raw sewage from backing up into the home through toilets, sinks, showers.

  • The installation of the backwater valve is completed in one day
  • The valve can be installed inside the foundation by the front wall of the house or on the outside of the home
  • A camera inspection is performed to find the ideal location around the house to install the valve
  • Once installation is completed, that will allow any waste from your home to flow freely to the city main
  • If the city main becomes bombarded and overwhelmed and backs up into adjacent basements, the backwater valve will automatically close in order to prevent flooding from the city main line
