I have an issue from a storm event.

Text us at 604.780.4495. Then remove the rainwater leaders and let the water spill onto to the ground.

I have a sewer issue.

Text us at 604.780.4495. If you’re experiencing a main sewer back up, DO NOT FLUSH OR USE ANY PLUMBING.

What should I do if my sewer pump alarm is sounding?

Text us at 604.780.4495. If you hear an audible alarm for a basement sewer pump, DON’T USE ANY PLUMBING DOWNSTAIRS.

I have a problem with my pump station.

Text us at 604.780.4495. Then go to your pump control panel and see if there is something obvious. Take a photo or video to document it. If the high level alarm is going off periodically, it means one pump isn't functioning. If it's on consistently, get your spare pump and layflat and get it set up as there may be more serious issues.

What can I do to prevent flooding or water damage?

It may sound obvious, but regularly scheduled preventative maintenance can greatly reduce your chance of flooding. Perimeter Drainage also offers remote system monitoring which automatically provides 24/7 security that will allow us to respond before any major flooding happens.

Craig is the guy I count on to ensure everything is in order as my crawlspace flooded a few years ago. He explains everything he does in detail and listens intently to your concerns. He is also very knowledgable and takes great pride in his work. I installed a check valve on my own to the wrong pipe and without asking he corrected it. So appreciative of Craig and his dedication to excellence.

I have used Perimeter three times over the last 20 years and have always been completely satisfied with their promptness and professionalism. I would not deal with anyone else.

They did an excellent job, explained the whole process clearly, did it in a timely fashion and left the work area very clean after the job was done, I highly recommend the business for all your drainage needs.
