Elgin's Premier Plumbing Service: Expert Overhead Sewer System Solutions

For Elgin homeowners who have dealt with basement flooding year after year, an overhead sewer system changes everything. J. Blanton Plumbing designs and installs systems that eliminate sewer backup as a risk — giving homeowners the ability to finish their basement with confidence.

The installation process involves rerouting existing basement drain lines above the home's foundation, installing an appropriately sized ejector pit and pump, and connecting all basement fixtures to the new overhead system. We handle permitting and work to minimize disruption to your home.

Overhead sewer systems are a significant investment, but they offer permanent protection and can increase your Elgin home's value — particularly in neighborhoods with known flooding history where buyers recognize the value of proven flood control.

Some areas we serve, but are not limited to, include:

By raising your basement plumbing connections above the city sewer surcharge level, an overhead sewer system removes the pathway that allows sewer water to back up into your home during heavy rain events. The elevation difference prevents the physics that cause backup flooding.

Most homes can accommodate an overhead sewer system, though the complexity and cost vary based on the existing plumbing layout, basement ceiling height, and the depth of your sewer connection. Our plumbers assess your home and design a system that works within your specific conditions.

Installation typically takes 2 to 5 days depending on the complexity of your existing plumbing and the number of fixtures being reconnected. We provide a detailed timeline before work begins.

The overhead pipe system itself requires no maintenance. The ejector pump — which moves waste from basement fixtures up to the overhead line — should be inspected annually and typically requires replacement every 7 to 10 years.
