So the heavy downpour on saturday caused a minor problem in the basement, a few gallons of water. Dadin’t take long with the wet vac to pump it out. Yesterday afternoon I sat in the basement to watch where the water was coming from as another strom rollwed through. Seems that we have a back up from the water main. None of the neighbours have this issue.

Was going to call out one of the following companies and wanted to know if anyone had an opinion on either :

1) Sessa Plumbing
2) Python drain cleaning.

Also, if anyone has thoughts on how to curse water main backups I’d appreciate. I’ve seen mention of one way valves but not clear to me if they are the way to go or not.
Thanks.
