During heavy rains it is possible for sewers to get backed up with water and, without a backwater valve installation, your basement or home may experience flooding. By having a backflow valve in your home, you can avoid greater expenses later for repairs.

By using our flood protection services, you can avoid having to deal with basement flooding, raw sewage leaks, and sewer backups. Those in the city of Vaughan will be able to subsidize the installation of a backwater valve or other flood prevention projects.

3 Benefits of Backwater Valve Installation in Vaughan, ON

1. Prevents Basement Flooding

Every time there’s a sudden downpour in Vaughan, your home faces the risk of experiencing sewer flooding. This happens because the rain overloads the main sewer system and leads to sewer backflow in many Vaughan homes. Installing a backwater valve stops the sewer water from moving backward and re-entering your home.

2. Save On Repair Costs

Without a proper backwater valve being installed your basement can receive major damages from water or sewage finding its way into your home. It could result in damages to your walls, floors, electronics, and valuables kept in the basement.

3. Insurance Discount

Vaughan backwater valve installation can help get you a discount on your home insurance premiums. This is because the backflow valve reassures the insurer that you have taken adequate measures to protect your home from sewer backflow. In addition, remember to tell your insurer the areas where you installed the backwater valve since the information will be used to calculate your premium discount.

Backwater Valve Installation And Uses

Backwater valve installation in Vaughan can be easy if done correctly. First, the plumber must inspect your waste pipes to determine the most appropriate location for the valve installation to occur. Depending on where your home is located, installing a backwater valve may require a permit.
Remember, backwater valves are installed in different areas of your home’s piping system, including the basement and other low-level rooms, to prevent wastewater from flowing back into the house. Whether in your current home, or one under construction, we can assist you with your backwater valve installation. 

How A Backwater Valve Works?

In case the main sewer line becomes overloaded, the backwater valve prevents the waste from flowing back into your home through the pipes they leave from.
Within the backwater valve, there’re two tiny flaps that open so wastewater flows out of your home and helps to vent sewer gas out of the house. Attached to the two flaps of the backwater valve are small floating devices that close the folds when the system detects any sewer backflow. Once the backflow stops, gravity forces the waste to return back into the sewer rather than entering your home.

We called MT Drains and Plumbers to investigate water marks on our kitchen ceiling. We've called other plumbers before. They were happy to cut holes in the ceiling but couldn't determine where the water was coming from. Dickson arrived on time and quickly located the source of the leak which was from the shower in our master bedroom. He was very professional and personable. I would use MT Drains and Plumbers again.

The crew of MT drains & plumbing did an excellent job of repairing our foundation and replacing weeping tile. Pavil is very knowledgeable and their pricing is very fair for the work they completed. His two man crew were excellent hard working guys. They cleaned up the work zone to the maximum. We would highly recommend this company. 5 stars for sure.

We had a pipe leaking just before the water meter and main shut off. It was an emergency repair because we were unable to turn off the water to stop the leak. The company was extremely responsive, booked an appointment for the same afternoon and sent a follow up email to confirm. The plumber showed up on time and was very skilled and competent. Plumbing work was excellent. Billing practices less so. On viewing the pipe they quoted $600 to do the repair. I agreed because it was Friday afternoon at 2:30 and with a leak in progress didn't feel I had the luxury to shop around. Definitely felt gouged. The repair took 30 minutes and couldn't have used more than $50 in parts. Would definitely recommend for non emergency repairs when you can get competitive quote but would recommend caution for urgent repairs due to price gouging

Eddie and Pavel are fantastic. The service experience was beyond my satisfaction. They installed a complex sewage ejector vent along the side of my house to the roof and also a tankless water heater. Their crew worked diligently, were professional and respectful in our home with proper clean up. I'd highly recommend their services. They also are very competitively priced on job quotes and estimates.

MT Drains installed a water softener and water filter at my house. The install was quick and they showed me how to use the equipment. I like the fact they separated the waterline that I use to water my lawn so I don't pour softener water into the ground! The equipment is great and very quite. I hear a lot of people complain about the taste of the water comes out from the water filter, all I can say my kitchen filtered water tastes great and we drink it all the time. If you live north of the city I definitely recommend getting a water softener and filter! the difference is very noticeable!
