Overhead Sewer System Installation in Gold Coast
An overhead sewer system is the most effective flood control solution available for Gold Coast homes in areas prone to sewer backup during heavy rain. J. Blanton Plumbing installs overhead sewer systems throughout Gold Coast with the licensing and experience this complex project demands.
In a conventional plumbing system, your basement drains and fixtures connect directly to the city sewer. When the city sewer surcharges during heavy rain, sewage has a direct path back into your basement. An overhead sewer system reroutes your basement plumbing above the city sewer level, eliminating that path entirely.
Once installed, overhead sewer systems virtually eliminate the risk of sewer backup flooding — not just reduce it, but eliminate it. Basement fixtures are connected to a collection pit, and an ejector pump moves waste up to the overhead pipe and into the sewer system above the surcharge level.
J. Blanton Plumbing has installed overhead sewer systems in Gold Coast and throughout Chicagoland for over 30 years. We assess your home's existing plumbing layout, design the overhead system, and manage the complete installation — including permits and inspections.
If your Gold Coast home has experienced repeated basement flooding from sewer backup, an overhead sewer system is the permanent solution — not another patch.
Overhead Sewer Systems in Gold Coast: Permanent Flood Control Protection
For Gold Coast 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 Gold Coast home's value — particularly in neighborhoods with known flooding history where buyers recognize the value of proven flood control.
