Fall Plumbing Prep for Seattle Homes

Jenny Campbell · · 1 replies

Hey Seattle! With the rainy season on the horizon, it’s the perfect time to tackle any plumbing projects. I’ve been inspecting my gutters and downspouts to make sure they’re ready for the influx of rain. I’ve also heard horror stories of basement flooding, so I might invest in a sump pump. What preventative measures do you all recommend? Anything specific you’re doing to prepare this fall?

Hey there! While it’s great that you’re prepping for the rainy season, I hope you're also considering the potential costs associated with that sump pump. They can be pricey upfront, and the installation might add to your bill. Plus, if there’s ever a power outage, you might still end up with a flooded basement. Have you thought about backup options like a battery-operated pump? Just looking out for your wallet!
