What drives sewer line repair calls in North Dakota
Flood-season backups
When: Red River snowmelt flooding. What fails: Sewers surcharge and basements flood. What to do: Before the spring crest, have a backwater valve installed and stage a second pump with a generator or battery.
Most North Dakota homes have full basements. Fargo, Bismarck and Grand Forks have a mix of older and newer homes, and rural homes rely on private wells, rural water systems and septic.
