Sewer Back-ups

Rule

Coverage for backups of sewers and basement drains is available, but not always included in a basic homeowner's insurance policy. In addition, insurance companies that do offer the protection have varying amounts of coverage.

Check your homeowner's insurance policy to see if you have coverage for backups. If you do not have coverage, consider adding it to your policy because in most cases the City's insurance will not cover your damages in the event of an incident.

The Edina Public Works Department continues to strive for a reliable infrastructure system. However, in some instances the system might fail and we all need to plan for those unexpected occurrences.

For more information, contact Utilities Superintendent Roger Glanzer at 952-826-0311.
