What Makes South Lockport Vulnerable to Sewage Backups
Living in South Lockport means dealing with combined sewer overflow during heavy nor'easter rainfall events sooner or later. The good news: water damage is fully recoverable when you catch it fast and bring in certified technicians.
South Lockport's location near the Niagara River and its proximity to the Erie Canal make it vulnerable to flooding during heavy rainfall. The area's clay soil can also slow drainage, increasing the risk of sewage backup in basements and low-lying areas.
