Sewer line blockages can lead to raw sewage backing up and leaking into your shower or the drains of your sink. The backups to sewer lines can lead to costly repairs. The cost to replace floors, vanities, and even support joists due to an unrepaired sewer main could exceed the cost of the plumbing repairs very quickly, making prompt detection and repair crucial to keeping costs down.

A sewer line obstruction could occur due to various reasons. Excessive paper usage along with grease and oil from kitchen waste hair, and soapy residue from showers and sinks can cause sewer line obstructions.

The process of unblocking the main sewer line can be accomplished by homeowners willing to mess up. Start by turning the main water supply to the house off. Find a small round PVC pipe that has a rubber or plastic screw-on cap on the top. Removing that cap will release the pressure that has built up and cause water to flow out of (rather than back into) the home.

If you've ever encountered the blockage of a sewer line then you're aware of how stressful it can become. A variety of things can cause a sewer stop flowing, such as the impact of soil or frozen ground. Also, the buildup of grease, paper and other foreign waste could block the flow of the pipe. Root infiltration is a different issue. It occurs when roots from nearby trees or shrubs get into the sewer line at an intersection and expand to cover the pipe with a hair-like root mass. If not addressed immediately, these blockages can cause the pipe to explode or break or even collapse. Such damage will require the repair or replacement of the sewer line.
