In addition, the accumulation of grease, paper and other wastes that are foreign to the system could block the flow of the pipe. Another reason for this is root infiltration. In this case, roots of a nearby plant or tree enter the sewer line via an opening and then expand to fill up the pipe with a hair-like root mass.
