Springtime maintenance necessary to keep your foundation walls dry
Catch basin maintenance cleaning, power flushing by Toronto Drain Services.
Springtime is always busy for a property owner; a home requires good cleaning and maintenance after a long winter sleep.
Spring showers, rapid snowmelts result in excessive runoff in households with poor drainage - water pooling and floodings could occur.
And things like faulty gutters, clogged weeping tile pipes, cracks in the foundations - the system that collects and protects, if that were not maintained properly, would not be able to keep our houses safe and sound from water seeping into our living spaces.
Routine cleaning is always a good practice in the begging and at the end of the season.
At Toronto Drain Services, we focus on drains and drainage and always lend a pair of skilled hands to clear the most difficult out of all clogs and blockages - sewer line clogs/ drain cleaning and catch basin cleaning.
In our service list, there are many services: drain camera inspection, drain line snaking, drain power flushing; we also provide hydro jetting and vacuum cleaning services for catch basins.
As Toronto and GTA area lies close to Lake Ontario, and many rivers and creeks are crossing the land; besides, we receive a large amount of rainfall water; our cities are heavily packed with highrise buildings, underground parkings - large paved areas and small green patches to absorb rainwater, that makes our habitat prone to floodings.
How could a residential dwelling prevent sewer backups and floodings?
There are subsidy programs for eligible homeowners in Toronto, Peel, Durham, York, Markham, and many other cities. Different cities have their own programs for preventing floodings,
Toronto offers a basement flooding subsidy program and covers up to 80 percent of labor and materials costs.
Besides, installing a backwater valve to prevent sewage flooding and installing a sump pump to remove stormwater from our basements.
We also install catch basins and offer repair and replacement services for the old ones. Catch basin improves drainage around the house, moving water away from the basement foundation walls.
And in case you need any maintenance service for your catch basin like cleaning, power flushing, or vacuum cleaning - we could deal with that too!
There are other tools to keep your peace of mind in our toolbox, like drain camera inspection and drain snaking for main drains and drain blockage investigation with the recording to a memory stick. *Please, ask our technician in advance if you require the recording.
