City of Mississauga has introduced the Sump Pump Subsidy Program to help homeowners safeguard their homes from the risk of basement flooding.
Every year the City of Mississauga works toward improving and upgrading the complex system of sewers and underground pipes. However, these actions alone are not able to protect a home from basement flooding for 100%. As intense rainstorms and other severe weather conditions are becoming a new normal in Ontario due to climate change, homeowners should be proactive when it comes to reducing the risk of basement flooding on their private property.
To help homeowners safeguard their homes from the risk of basement flooding during severe rainstorms, the City of Mississauga has introduced one more subsidy program – Foundation Drain Collector Sump Pump Subsidy in addition to its Backwater Valve Rebate Program.
This fairly new basement flooding protection program offers a financial subsidy that covers the full cost of the sump pump installation, to a maximum of $6,000 per household, whichever is less. Those homeowners living on streets that are serviced by the municipal Foundation Drain Collector (FDC) system are eligible for the financial assistance. The City of Mississauga warning all homeowners to be cautious of door-to-door sales people offering sump pump installation services as The City doesn’t employ or authorize any third-party companies to provide this service on behalf of The City.
To verify if you are eligible for a FDC Sump Pump Subsidy, please review the information below and make sure you meet all of the following eligibility criteria:
Please call 311 (905-615-4311 outside City limits) if you are not sure if your property is serviced by the FDC system or not. You can also use this map which shows the approximate extents of the Foundation Drainage Collector (FDC) system.
Please call 311 (905-615-4311 outside City limits) to confirm that your plumber is licensed by the City of Mississauga.
If you have any additional questions, please email stormwater@mississauga.ca or call 311 (905-615-4311 outside City limits).
**Customer Service Advisors are available to answer resident inquiries, Monday to Friday between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m.
