Backwater Valve

Sewage Backups Happen

Sewer systems are typically gravity based and flow through a main trunk line. When a sudden heavy rainstorm overloads the main sewer system sewers can backup into homes and business.

How a Backwater Valve Helps Protect you from Flooding

A mainline backwater valve can help prevent sewage in an overloaded main sewer line from backing up into your basement. Placed directly into the sewer lateral in your basement, the valve automatically closes if sewage backs up from the main sewer line.

“Everyone At Postma is very professional and offers wonderful and prompt service. They have helped us out of two jams one a plumbing emergency and today when our furnace in a rental unit broke and the temperature dropped to 49 degrees they came out right away and got us up and running… I can’t thank them enough and will turn to them again the next time we need something…”

“Had some leaking/flooding from an unknown source, Postma was able to schedule a plumber to come out the same day. Even though the plumber, Mark, was running behind with his other emergency calls after the cold snap he fit us in at the end of his day. Mark was kind, thorough and accurate in diagnosing the issue. Would definitely recommend Mark and Postma to anyone with a plumbing issue.”

“The whole team at Postma was professional and timely! When our furnace broke in the middle of a heat wave they were scheduling it’s replacement in less than a week! Would recommend their services to anyone needing heating or cooling assistance. The work is clean and they want to make sure you’re happy with everything!”
