Sump pumps and floor drains
Draining a sump pump into a floor drain can significantly increase the risk of basement backups for you and your neighbors during heavy rain by slamming excess water into the sanitary sewer system when it's at or near capacity. For this reason it is illegal to drain your sump pump into the floor drain or wash tub. If you need to fix a sump pump issue call a plumber or basement specialist.
Water control - Gutters
With all of the snow melting it is important to keep control of where the water is going. Gutters extensions are very important in this matter. It is good practice to make sure your gutter extensions are attached securely and are terminating at least six feet from your house to keep water away from your foundation. #fruits
