Basement Drain Backup Service in Niagara Falls
The basement floor drain is often the lowest point in your home's plumbing, which makes it the first place water shows up when something downstream is blocked. A basement backup can damage flooring, belongings and drywall. Niagara Drain helps Niagara Falls homeowners clear basement drain backups at any hour.

Our approach
How we handle it
We ask when the water appeared and what was running at the time, which helps tell us whether the problem is in the floor drain, a branch line or the main sewer line.
We clear the blockage through the floor drain or another access point using equipment suited to the line.
We confirm the drain is flowing and talk through steps to help reduce the chance of future basement backups.
