    Dundas Street East Sewage Shield – Toronto Backwater Valve Case Study

    Client:  Mr. and Mrs. Nguyen, Dundas Street East

    Challenge:

    • Recurring raw sewage backup into their basement suite after heavy rainfall
    • No existing backwater valve—old clay drain line was prone to clogging
    • Health hazards and unpleasant odors

    • Excavated a section of basement slab to access the main sanitary line.
    • Installed a backwater valve with an external access panel for easy maintenance.
    • Paired the valve with a ½ HP submersible sump pump (see our sump pump installation in Toronto) to manage groundwater intrusion.
    • Sealed perimeter with interior waterproofing grout and applied exterior foundation membrane.
