No. BasementFloodingProtection.ca is a private service company. We help homeowners understand flood-protection work and documents, but subsidy approval, eligibility and payment are decided by the City of Toronto or the relevant public program.
The best first step is a home plumbing assessment. It gives the homeowner a clearer picture of sewer-backup risk, groundwater risk, sump pump needs, backwater valve options, discharge concerns, and any paperwork likely required for a rebate application.
Some homes need one, some need both, and some need maintenance or documentation before any installation is recommended. A backwater valve helps with sewer backup risk. A sump pump helps manage groundwater collected at the sump pit. The right answer depends on how water reaches the basement.
No private contractor can guarantee municipal subsidy approval. We can help prepare clear itemized invoices, photos, forms, permit or inspection information when applicable, and practical guidance so the homeowner submits a more complete package.
