A sewer line obstruction can cause raw sewage to back up and find its way into the tub, shower and sink drains all over your home. Sewer line backups often result in an expensive repair job. The expense of having to replace floors, vanities, and even support joists as a result of an unrepaired sewer main could outweigh the cost of plumbing repair quickly, making prompt detection and repair essential to reducing costs.

There are a variety of reasons a sewer line can become blocked. Excessive paper usage along with grease and oil from kitchen waste hair, and soapy residue from sinks and showers can cause sewer line blockages.

If the homeowner is willing to try their hand at making a mess, unclogging an main sewer line may be a do-it-yourself project. Shut off your main water source. You should look for a shorter, round PVC pipe with an adhesive rubber or plastic screw-on cap on the end. By removing the cap, you release built up pressure and allow water to drain out of (rather rather than back into) the home.

Most likely, you've encountered an obstruction in your sewer. The sewer line can be blocked due to a variety of reasons, such as frozen ground and impacted soil. The pipe could also be blocked by paper, grease or any other foreign material. Another reason for this is root infiltration. In this case, roots from a nearby shrub or tree reach the sewer line via the joint and grow to fill the pipe with a hair-like root mass. If not dealt with immediately, may result in the pipeline bursting, breaking, or collapsing. Such damage will require the repair or replacement of the sewer line.
