Flood Protection Services in Toronto

A backwater valve is a simple and effective way to protect your household from basement flooding. Backwater valves are usually installed in the basement where the sewer line exits the household. These valves allow for a one-way sewage stream: sewage flows out of the house, and upstream sewage flow from the City is prevented. The city sewage, therefore, cannot advance into the household’s pipes. This type of city flooding occurs when residential areas “outgrow” the pipe structures of the neighborhood and homeowners have no control over this phenomenon other than to install protective backwater valves. Morrison Plumbing and Mechanical will help you obtain a city of Toronto subsidy of up to $1,250 per property with the installation of a backwater valve.
