During last week’s storm, I noticed water slowly backing up from a small side drain. It receded after a few hours, but I’m nervous it could happen again. I’ve never had this issue before, and I don’t want my yard flooded. I’m wondering if it’s something I can prevent myself. What causes occasional backflow during rainstorms in residential areas?

I had a similar experience when water started backing up from a side drain after a heavy storm, and I wasn’t sure if it was a minor blockage or something deeper. I reached out to https://septicsolutionsllc.com/ and their team explained how a full pump plus inspection and root-cause diagnosis can help prevent recurring issues. Knowing they offer long-term maintenance and are available 24/7 with 12-hour emergency response in Arlington, WA and nearby counties made me feel confident about keeping my system reliable.
