A sewer line obstruction could cause raw sewage to back up, and then find its way into showers, tubs and sink drains in your home. Sewer line backups can often lead to expensive repairs. The cost of having to replace vanities, floors, and even support joists as a result of an unrepaired sewer main could outweigh the cost of plumbing repair very quickly, making prompt detection and repair essential in reducing the cost.
A sewer line blockage can occur for various reasons. Excessive paper usage as well as grease and oil from kitchen waste, hair and soapy residue from sinks and showers could all cause sewer line obstructions.
Cleaning the main sewer line could be accomplished by homeowners willing to get messy. Start by turning the main water supply to the house off. Find a small circular PVC pipe that has a rubber or plastic screw-on cap on the top. The cap can be removed to release pressure , allowing water to go away from the house.
We offer a variety of sewer-related services, including main sewer line repair, replacement, and cleaning to address these issues:
- Cracked, broken, collapsed, or offset pipes Certain elements like freezing ground, settling and shifting soil may move your pipes out of their original positions and in the process, damage them.
- Corrosion - Corroded pipes not only affect the water quality that enters your home, but the corrosion may also cause damage to and cause cracks to pipes.
- Blockage is the case when a foreign material or grease buildup blocks or restricts the flow of water through your drains to the sewer line.
- Bellied pipe This happens when ground or soil conditions cause damage to a portion of the pipe. A bellied pipe will form a valley that may be able to store water that was not used.
- Joints that leak - If the seals connected the pipe joints erode they will create a space where water can be able to seep through.
- Tree roots in the sewer line The roots of trees and bushes in your front yard may wrap around sewer lines and, after some time, they can actually crack the pipes.
- Off-grade pipe This problem is due to the use of low-quality pipes. The pipes are vulnerable to deterioration and corrosion.
