During the process, changes in air pressure within the sewer system may cause water to splash from toilets, sinks, and drains. To reduce the risk of damage or mess, please:
- Close toilet lids and insert plugs in sinks and bathtubs when not in use.
- Remove bathroom floor mats.
- Place old towels around the base of toilets.
- Check that your float plug or backwater valve is clean and working properly.
- Cover your basement floor drain with thick plastic (e.g., a freezer bag) and weigh it down with a heavy object.
You may return everything to normal once crews have completed work on your block.
Possible Odours
Sewer cleaning may cause temporary odours in your home. If this occurs, we recommend:
- Running water in all sinks and bathtubs.
- Flushing toilets.
- Pouring a pail of water into each basement floor drain.
- Opening windows for ventilation.
The odour should clear quickly.
