Flood Control FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Chicago Flood Control Services

Flood control systems help protect basements, drains, and sewer lines from backups and water damage. Here are answers to common questions about flood control services in the Chicago area.

What is a flood control system?

A flood control system is designed to help protect a property from sewer backups, basement flooding, and excess water entering through the plumbing or drainage system.

How do I know if my home needs flood control services?

You may need flood control services if your basement has flooded before, floor drains have backed up, sewer water has entered the property, or heavy rain regularly causes drainage or sump pump problems.

Can flood control help prevent sewer backups?

Yes. A properly installed and maintained flood control system can help reduce the risk of sewer backups by controlling how wastewater and stormwater move through the plumbing system.

What causes basement flooding in Chicago-area homes?

Basement flooding can be caused by heavy rain, sewer backups, sump pump failure, poor drainage, foundation seepage, clogged drains, or overwhelmed municipal sewer systems.

Should flood control systems be inspected or maintained?

Yes. Flood control systems should be inspected and maintained so valves, pumps, drains, and related components continue working properly when heavy rain or sewer backup conditions occur.
