A homeowner in Brooklyn was struggling with her basement shower backing up, especially during heavy rainfall. This issue is not uncommon due to outdated city infrastructure and the increased rainfall due to global warming. Brooklyn’s Best Handyman and General Construction aided her by not only clearing the shower drain of hair and debris but also strategically installing a Flood-Guard for 2″ Flood Drains. This backup valve allowed her to continue using the shower as usual, without worrying about water backing up from the flooded sewers. This plumbing repair and modification project ended up saving her thousands of dollars. Another plumbing service had suggested installing a check valve in her main house trap, a far more costly solution.
