They replaced our 70 year old clay pipes than ran from under our 4 ft crawlspace all the way out through the front yard and out to the town sewer system. About 50 feet. We had torn out old shrubs 10 years ago, but the roots still kept growing. After the yearly routing of the roots growing between clay pipes over the years, the pipes finally caved in and no router equipment could clear the debris. These guys came out and saved the day. Over 2 weeks, Steve and his crew dug an 8 ft deep trench starting in the tight crawlspace and replaced everything with modern piping. The town inspector required a copy of our property plat survey, which we had handy, so the permits came fast as well. Afterward, other than the mounded soil which will flatten out, these guys cleaned up so well, and replaced our crawlspace seal coverage which had to be cut, you can hardly tell they were there.

Would definitely recommend and I will definitely be calling them in the future regarding any other repair I may need. When They left I was a happy customer Thanks Suburban sewer experts.

Anthony J

Suburban Sewer Experts helped me replace my sump pump. They were very nice courteous, informative and they got the job done quickly and efficiently. Very professional! Since they had to cut through some foam sealant to do the job, they went and got a replacement can and replaced the foam when they were done replacing my sump pump. Above and beyond- not many would have done that part. Highly recommend!

Linda C.

I was very happy with the quality of the work. Mike's men were easy to work with. I would recommend their company to any one for any sewer repairs!

Tom C.

5 stars! Plumber expert Mike quickly assessed the problem source of my basement drain that recently backed up, and rodded out my plugged sewer line. Very professional and knowledgeable regarding their craft. Very happy with the service I received and would certainly use them again.

Ed C.

I live in an older house with a disaster of a catch basin. I had several vendors come by to check it out and only two actually wanted to bid. One vendor wanted to dig up my yard and fully replace the entire system and suburban Experts was the only one who knew they could not only repair but optimize the system. These guys showed up quickly, worked tirelessly and absolutely went the extra mile to make sure my system was not only working now but will work long into the future. I hope I never see them again! But I recommend that you call these guys first with any issue with your plumbing or sewer. I couldn’t be happier.

KC A.

Happy Customer

Good work, didn't take long to get the job done

Janet B.

Satisfied Client!

Mike came ready to work. He is very knowledgeable and forthright. In addition to diagnosing the problem I called him for, he took a look around the house and found a catastrophe in the making. When his team returned to fix it, they took every effort to try and save money with the repair. Since they clearly take pride in their work, they urged me (without pressure) to not go with a simple repurpose. I know what you're thinking, but I'm no sucker. I watched everything they did and was right alongside them and saw that the cheaper route wasn't the way to go. Mike brings knowledge and a likability that inspire confidence in the service he and his team provide.

Jay K.

Happy Customer

Randy S.

Satisfied Customer

Important to me is that they came when I wanted them at my house not when they could make it out to me, day and time was up to me a real PLUS !

Johnny F.

Happy Customer

I had been rodding out my two main outdoor drain lines for more than 15 years by myself. The most recent time I hit clay on the drain from my kitchen so I called Will from Suburban. He was patient, professional and courteous. Gave me an estimate to repair the pipe and cleanout and did not charge me for his attempt to rod out the line. The final work was done quickly and cleanly and they explained everything along the way. Great Service! I got two other estimates that were way out of line with what these guys charged me.

Katerina P.

Satisfied Customer

This was a very pleasant experience for someone like me not used to hiring a contractor for a particular job. Mike and Dave of Suburban sewer experts were able do the job in a very acceptable manner. It was timely, affordable and correctly done. They were even able to advise me on other things that were important to my home. I really appreciate how they were able to make room and get to me the same day.

Kay C.

Top Backflow Prevention Services in Chicago & Suburbs

At Suburban Sewer Experts, we are dedicated to ensuring the safety and purity of your water supply. Our team of experts specialize in backflow prevention services, installation, testing, and repairs. We understand the importance of maintaining compliant systems and keeping your water safe from contamination. With our professional services, you can have peace of mind knowing that your water supply is protected.

When it comes to the maintenance and protection of our properties, one aspect that often goes overlooked is sewer backflow prevention. While it may not be the most glamorous topic, the consequences of ignoring this vital service can be costly and damaging.

Sewer Backflow: Understanding the Causes and Solutions

Sewer backflow occurs when wastewater flows in the opposite direction and enters a property’s plumbing system. This can happen when there is a disruption in the normal flow of sewage, causing it to back up into sinks, toilets, and other fixtures. The primary causes of sewer backflow include heavy rainfall, clogged drains, or malfunctions in the municipal sewer system.

The consequences of sewer backflow can be severe. Not only does it result in unsanitary conditions and foul odors, but it can also cause property damage and pose health risks to occupants. The contaminated water may contain harmful bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens, putting individuals at risk of illness and infection.

Causes of Sewer Backflow

There are several factors that can contribute to sewer backflow. It is essential to be aware of these causes to implement preventive measures and minimize the risk of backflow incidents. Some common causes include:

Blockages: Obstructions in the sewer lines, such as tree roots, debris, fats, oils, and grease, can cause blockages that restrict the flow of wastewater. When the pressure builds up, it can lead to backflow.

Heavy Rainfall: During heavy rain events, the level of water in the sewer system can rise rapidly. If the capacity of the sewer pipes is exceeded, backflow can occur.

Sewer Line Damage: Cracked, collapsed, or damaged sewer lines can create opportunities for wastewater to escape and flow back into buildings or onto the streets.

Sewer System Design: Inadequate design of sewer systems, including improper slope or pipe sizes, can contribute to backflow problems.

Sewer System Overload: When the sewer system experiences a high volume of wastewater due to factors like population growth or new developments, it can overwhelm the capacity of the system, leading to backflow.

How Sewer Backflow Prevention Services Protect Public Health and Property

Our backflow prevention services play a crucial role in safeguarding properties and their occupants from the detrimental effects of sewer backups. Our services involve the installation and maintenance of backflow prevention devices, which are designed to prevent wastewater from flowing into a property’s plumbing system.

Backflow prevention devices are installed at key points in the plumbing system, such as where the sewer line connects to the property or in specific fixtures. They work by allowing water and waste to flow out of the property but prevent any reverse flow from occurring. Common types of backflow prevention devices include check valves, backwater valves, and air gaps.

Ensuring the Safety and Well-being of your Property with Sewage Backflow Prevention Services in the Greater Chicago Area

By investing in our sewer backflow prevention services, property owners can reap numerous benefits:

Mitigating Property Damage: Sewer backups can cause extensive damage to a property’s structure, resulting in costly repairs and renovations. By hiring Suburban Sewer Experts, property owners can avoid water damage, mold growth, and other structural issues.

Protecting Health and Safety: Contaminated water from sewer backups poses significant health risks. Sewer backflow prevention services ensure the well-being of occupants, preventing the spread of diseases and safeguarding their overall safety.

Complying with Regulations: Certain jurisdictions and building codes require the installation of backflow prevention devices. Engaging sewer backflow prevention services ensures compliance with these regulations, preventing any legal consequences.

Avoiding Disruptions: Sewer backups can disrupt daily activities and routines. By proactively preventing backflow, property owners can avoid inconveniences, such as interrupted water supply, foul odors, and the need for emergency repairs.

Long-Term Cost Savings: While the initial investment in sewer backflow prevention services may seem significant, it pales in comparison to the potential costs of property damage and cleanup resulting from a sewer backup. By preventing such incidents, property owners can save money in the long run.

The Need for Professional Backflow Prevention Service in Illinois

Expert Sewer Backflow Valve Installation: Safeguard Your Property Against Costly Damage

Suburban Sewer Experts specialize in providing top-notch backflow valve installation services to protect your property from sewer backups. With our professional expertise and commitment to customer satisfaction, we aim to deliver the best solutions for your sewer system.

Why Do You Need a Sewer Backflow Valve?

A sewer backflow valve, also known as a check valve or backwater valve, is a crucial component of your property’s plumbing system. Its main function is to prevent sewage from flowing back into your property in the event of a backup or heavy rainstorm. By ensuring that wastewater only flows in one direction, away from your property, a backflow valve can help mitigate the risk of water damage, sewage contamination, and costly repairs caused by sewer backups.

Without a properly installed and maintained backflow valve, your property is vulnerable to the following risks:

Damage to your property’s foundation and structure
Contamination of clean water supply
Health hazards due to exposure to sewage
Expensive cleanup and restoration costs
Disruption of daily operations for commercial properties

Investing in a sewer backflow valve installation is a proactive step towards protecting your property and preventing potential disasters. Our team of experienced professionals has the knowledge and expertise to assess your specific needs and provide you with a customized solution that meets the highest industry standards.

Key Benefits of Utilizing Sewer Backflow Valves to Prevent Water Damage

Sewer backflow valve installation offers numerous benefits to homeowners and commercial property owners. Here are some key advantages:

Protection from Sewage Backups: The primary purpose of a backflow valve is to prevent sewage backups in your property. It acts as a one-way gate, allowing wastewater to flow out but preventing it from backing up into your drains. This protection is vital in areas prone to heavy rains, sewer line obstructions, or overloaded municipal sewers.

Cost Savings: By preventing sewer backups, a backflow valve installation can save you significant costs associated with cleaning up and repairing damage caused by sewage overflow. It also helps avoid potential health and safety hazards that can arise from contaminated water entering your property.

Increased Property Value: Having a sewer backflow valve in place demonstrates to potential buyers or tenants that your property is well-protected against sewage backups. This added protection can increase its value and appeal in the real estate market.

Peace of Mind: Knowing that your property is safeguarded against sewer backups provides peace of mind. You can enjoy a worry-free environment, even during heavy rainfalls or sewer system issues in your area.

Water damage can be devastating to homes and businesses alike, causing extensive and costly repairs. One often overlooked cause of water damage is sewer backflow, which occurs when wastewater flows back into a building instead of away from it. This can happen during heavy rainfall or when the sewer system becomes overwhelmed.

Fortunately, there is a solution to preventing water damage from sewer backflow – utilizing sewer backflow valves. These valves are installed in the sewer line and are designed to automatically close when there is a reverse flow of wastewater. They act as a barrier, preventing sewage from entering a building and causing damage.
