Drainage standards have changed over the years, yet basement flooding remains a serious problem affecting residents in many municipalities in Toronto. Basement flooding generally occurs during snow melts and heavy rainfall and can cause serious damage and inconvenience.

As you can see we have additional budget for homeowners to cover their expenses when they update their sump pit systems. It is a great time now to make system better and more efficient then ever.

Sump Pump Installation Toronto

Check our Basement Flooding Page for more information about Backwater Valve installation:

A sump pump is required in houses built above rivers, in lower landscaping areas and in a houses with back water valves installed. Why? Because a backwater valve will prevent sewer backup from washing back into your home when the city’s portion of the sewer pipe is overloaded.

The weeping tile system will deliver the underground water to the main building drain but since the back water valve will be locked, it will pose no threat to your home. All underground water will discharge to the basement through the floor drain in the basement.

Installation Procedure

Basic steps to protect basement from flooding

Every homeowner should take the responsibility for establishing basement flooding precautions. Most often, you will need to speak to your Toronto plumber for area-specific plumbing installations. Basic protective steps homeowners should take include:

Sump Pump Installation Procedure

Sewage pump (Ejector pump)

A sewage pump has one job: moving solids and liquids between locations when sewage lines can not be installed due to too low toilet levels compared to the existing building drain. A sewage pump will sit in a sewage basin, which must naturally be in the lowest area of the location needing drainage (basement area).

Ejector pump

Sump Pit

A sump pit drainage system includes a sump pit, a sump pump and a discharge pipe. The sump pit, set into the basement floor, collects water from the weeping tiles around your basement. The pump pushes the water outside your house through the discharge pipe.

Sump Pit maintenance

Sump Pump

A sump pump is a pump used to remove water that has accumulated in a sump pit. A sump pit, commonly found in the home basement, is simply a hole to collect water.

Sump Pump Maintenance

A sump pump plays a pivotal role in your home’s drainage system. Two types of sump pumps are available, one for clear water and another for the waste system. In fact, the effectiveness of your drainage system is wholly dependent on the smooth operation of the pump.

Sump Pump Maintain home’s drainage system

Battery backup sump pumps act as flood prevention systems. There are many things that can go wrong down in the sump pit to cause basement flooding – power outage, a failed sump pump, and a stuck float switch are just some of the common causes.

By using a battery backup sump pump, your basement will remain dry during any of the above situations.

Basement Flooding

Basements can flood for many reasons. The City of Toronto is working hard to make improvements to its complex system of underground pipes, sewers and catch basins. But these improvements alone cannot completely protect a home from basement flooding. Increasingly frequent, severe weather events related to climate change, necessitate homeowners take the appropriate actions to reduce the risk of basement flooding on their own private property. Those who isolate their home from City’s sewer system can significantly reduce the risk of basement flooding.
