Protecting Your Plumbing During Hurricane Season

Heavy rain and storm surge put serious strain on plumbing systems across coastal Broward County.

Before the storm

• Clear outdoor drains and gutters of leaves and debris
• Know where your main water shutoff is
• Consider a backflow preventer to stop sewer backups
• Test your sump pump if you have one

After the storm

Watch for slow drains, gurgling toilets or sewage odors, which are signs the sewer line may be overwhelmed or damaged. Call us right away if you notice any.
