Backwater valves
A backwater valve is one possible part of a flood-risk plan. Its suitability, location and maintenance access should be assessed for the property and local requirements.

Start with the right scope.
- Property drainage assessment
- Installation and inspection access
- Maintenance and local requirements
Keep access and maintenance in the plan
Share any drainage plans, previous backup history and known valve location. Discuss suitability for the property, access for inspection and the requirements that apply locally. The proposal should make future maintenance practical as well as address installation.
