Flood Control Systems in Chicago

Chicago’s aging infrastructure and frequent storms make basement flooding a common issue. Without a proper flood control system, your home is vulnerable to water damage, mold growth, and costly repairs. Our expert team offers customized solutions to prevent sewer backups and excess water from entering your basement.

Our Flood Control Services

Basement Flood Control System Installation

At Deljo Heating, Cooling & Plumbing, we offer comprehensive basement flood control systems in Chicago to protect your basement from flooding.

Our overhead sewer systems prevent sewage backups by redirecting wastewater above the basement level, keeping your living spaces safe. Backwater valves automatically close when they detect reverse water flow. This prevents sewage from entering your home (even during heavy rain or sewer surcharges).

We install sump pumps with battery backup systems to keep your basement dry. They provide continuous protection against water intrusion even during power outages. If your property experiences groundwater seepage, install a drain tile system. These channel water away from your foundation to keep your basement dry and prevent structural damage.

We also offer yard drainage solutions, including French drains and surface grading, to reduce water pooling around your home.

Flood Control System Maintenance & Repairs

Regular maintenance is crucial to ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your flood control systems.

Our team conducts thorough inspections to identify potential issues before they escalate, offering peace of mind to homeowners. We specialize in cleaning and servicing sump pumps and backwater valves, ensuring they function efficiently and last longer.

If your system malfunctions, call us anytime 24/7 for live phone support and priority service scheduling. We also offer comprehensive drainage system assessments to proactively address concerns and help prevent costly future repair

Whether you’re a homeowner, landlord, or business owner, our licensed and insured technicians deliver professional service and expert installation. We also offer smart water monitoring systems that provide real-time alerts and automated flood prevention measures. This adds an extra layer of security to your property.

This was my first time as a Deljo customer, and I was very pleased. My technician, Giovanni, was very thorough and diligent. He serviced my furnace and identified a faulty sensor that was causing the unit to shut itself down. Deljo ordered the part, and Giovanni replaced it a few days later. Overall, the team at Deljo was great. The dispatcher kept me informed about Giovanni’s arrival time, and the supervisor assisted Giovanni when he was diagnosing the problem with the furnace. I highly recommend Deljo.

I’ve used Deljo for over 10 years now and they always do a good job. Izzy was the technician for this visit and he did an excellent job with my winter maintenance on my multiple units in the household. He also addressed an issue while cleaning the furnace blower wheel. His communication was clear and concise with what he planned to do to address the issue quickly. He was confident and I had 0 concerns or questions. Great job Izzy!

Paul was great! Arrived on time and completed maintenance on my humidifier, tankless water heater, and two furnaces. All work was performed under my Gold Star maintenance program, so all maintenance charges were covered. Paul did provide a few proposals for additional services on furnace & tankless water heater, but those were emailed to me for further consideration. Paul was friendly, knowledgeable, and answered all my questions.

Gabe did an excellent job with our annual service visit. He arrived in the early part of our service window, was friendly and knowledgeable, and got the work done in a very reasonable amount of time. I have great confidence in Deljo, and am a long-time customer.

I’ve been using Deljo for 20 years for HVAC but now venture into enlisting their plumbing services. Bashar was very courteous, efficient & informative, and I’d definitely request him again for the next plumbing job. Great experience!

Working with Deljo is always a good experience, and today’s appointment with Izzy was no different. He was able to come early which actually worked better with our schedules, but called me ahead of time to make sure that was okay. He was friendly and knowledgeable when he explained the work he had done during his visit and our options for fixes. He was also able to schedule a quote appointment for us while he was still here. We would highly recommend working with Izzy and the Deljo team!

Drew performed the seasonal maintenance on my AC. It needed some repairs and updates and he was able to fix everything at the same appointment. He also noticed issues with the hot water heater and we were able to get ahead of that, as well.

I would leave six out of five stars if I could! My technician Jorge went above and beyond on his service. There was buildup in the rental property’s toilet from the previous tenant. One maintenance person did a surface level job of cleaning but did not fully remove the obstruction. Jorge went above and beyond and came to a solution and even explained the perpetual problems older toilet models can cause. Moving forward with this insight, I can perform my own upkeep the previous tenant did not. Thank you kindly!

We just had our new boiler installed by Jonathan and Carlos. First rate work! They arrived on time, removed the old boiler, installed the new unit, and explained the features. Both guys were pleasant. Bring on the cold this winter! We are ready thanks to the team from Deljo.
