Free flood-risk assessment. All other service calls carry a $49.00 dispatch fee. 24/7 emergency line: we pick up.

We assess, no guess.

Not every home needs the same fix. One needs a backwater valve, another a sump pump, another both, and some need drainage corrected. Our process:

Assess: we inspect your plumbing, drainage and risk points.
Understand: we explain what we found, in plain English.
Protect: you get a practical recommendation. Education before selling.

Why "Wane Drain"

The name is Wayne's, built on 16 years of hands-on experience and the memories that come with them. Those years taught one thing: if you fix the drainage, you cut the risk of flooding. It won't make a basement flood-proof, but it beats cleaning up after the water arrives.

Fix all drains. Mitigate your risk.

What we do

Backwater valves: block sewer backup at the source.
Sump pumps and battery backup: keep groundwater out.
Drain camera inspections: see inside the line, cleanout to city.
Basement waterproofing: interior and exterior.
Foundation drainage, sewer clearing and repair, plumbing reviews.
