Hi All,
Please pass this information to anyone experiencing back flow problems with sewage. This is information for purchasing the materials and plumber contact information. The first plumber has already installed 3 or 4 on Thomas street with good results. I think the total price for backwater valve and labour will be around $500, but I'm not sure--you will need to speak with the plumber to get definite labour cost. The price to install is cheaper if you want to do some digging.
You should install something like this on your main sewer line:

And you need a sump pump at the front and back door

They interviewed 2 DC water guys who were in the hood- think one was Mr. Briggs, they both had titles - didn't pay a lot of attention, but they showed guys actually going down into the sewer line.
It is just amazing that it took this long to get some real action, and not just reports that all the drains were clean.
