During heavy storms, municipal sewers can surcharge and push sewage back toward your home. A backwater valve is your last line of defence. Many municipalities offer subsidies toward installation, and we'll point you to what's available.

Frequently asked questions

It's a one-way valve on your sewer line: waste flows out, but during a sewer surcharge it closes so nothing backs up into your basement.
No. They protect different things. A backwater valve stops sewage backups; a backflow preventer protects drinking water. See our explainer.
Many municipalities offer subsidies toward installation as part of basement-flooding protection programs. We'll point you to what applies in your area.
Usually yes. It requires a permit and inspection. We handle that and ensure the install is code-compliant.
