Whether you’re dealing with aging clay pipes in Central Welland or high-pressure issues in newer areas like Dain City, our team responds fast to fix the root cause.
Why Sewer Backups Happen So Often in Welland
Welland has many older homes with old sewer lines. Some pipes run under concrete floors or yards and stay hidden for years.
We find these local causes again and again:
Tree roots in sewer lines
Large trees in Welland neighbourhoods send roots into small cracks in pipes. Roots block flow and cause full backups.
Collapsed or broken sewer pipes
Clay ancast-iron pipes break over time. Ground movement and frost make it worse.
Heavy rain and overloaded city sewers
After storms, city sewer lines struggle to handle volume. Water pushes back into homes with weak or damaged laterals.
Grease and waste buildup
Grease, wipes, and debris build inside pipes. Flow slows until sewage has nowhere to go but back inside.
Our Search and Destroy Approach to Sewer Backups
We don’t guess with your foundation. We use a decisive 4-step protocol:
- Emergency Containment: We stop the immediate flow to protect your floors and walls.
- HD Fibre-Optic Camera Inspection: We send a camera deep into your line so you can see roots, cracks, or collapses on-screen in real time.
- Industrial Hydro-Jetting: For heavy blockages, we use high-pressure water to scrub pipes clean—not just poke a hole through the mess.
- Permanent Reinforcement: We offer trenchless repairs and backwater valve installations to ensure a Niagara storm never floods your basement again.
