Plumber in La Prairie
La Prairie is the most demanding municipality in our territory when it comes to backup protection: it requires two devices, not one.
Every building connected to the sanitary sewer must have a backwater valve AND a submersible pump, whatever the year of construction. Most neighbouring towns require only the valve.
It is also a town where non-compliance has a direct, written consequence for compensation.
Plomberie Boucherville does not have an office in La Prairie. We travel there from Boucherville.
Worth knowing in La Prairie
Valve AND submersible pump, both mandatory
Every building connected to the sanitary sewer, whatever its year of construction, must have a backwater valve and a submersible pump. It is a double requirement, and it is what sets La Prairie apart from most South Shore municipalities, where only the valve is required.

The requirement is not symbolic: an owner who does not comply risks receiving no compensation in the event of a backup. That is the practical reason to have both devices checked before storm season rather than after damage.
