A sewer line blockage could cause raw sewage to back up, and then find its way into showers, tubs and sink drains all over your home. Sewer line backups can often cause costly repairs. The cost to replace floors, vanities as well as support joists because of an unrepaired sewer main could surpass the expense of plumbing repairs very quickly, which makes early detection and repair key to keeping costs down.

A sewer line obstruction may occur for many reasons. Blockages in the sewer line can result from the use of paper excessively or grease and oil produced by hair, cooking waste and soapy residue left behind from showers and sinks.

The process of unblocking the main sewer line can be completed by homeowners who are prepared to get messy. Start by turning the main water source to the house off. There will be a small, round PVC pipe that is fitted with an end cap or a rubber screw-on cap. By removing the cap, you release built up pressure and cause water to drain out from (rather than back into) the home.

If you have ever experienced an obstruction in your sewer line, then you're aware of how stressful it can get. The sewer line can be blocked for many reasons, including impacted soil and freezing ground. In addition, the accumulation of grease, paper and other foreign debris can block proper flow through the pipe. Root infiltration is another common issue. This happens when roots from nearby trees or shrubs get into the sewer line at the joint and then grow to overflow the pipe, creating a hair-like root mass. If these blockages are not treated immediately, can result in the pipeline bursting and collapse, breaking or even collapsing. Such damage will require the repair or replacement of the sewer line.
