Sewer lines are essential for guiding waste water away from the home. Some common problems experienced with sewer lines include:
• Clogs and blockages
These can occur as a result of the accumulation of grease, hair soap, scum, tree roots and other debris in the sewer lines. They can cause partial or complete blockage of the sewer line and this can result in backups or slow draining.
• Tree root infiltration
Tree roots have been known to infiltrate sewer lines. The roots make their way into sewer lines through small cracks or joints in the structure of the sewer line. Tree roots will continue to grow and can eventually cause blockage or damage to the sewer pipes.
• Pipe corrosion or deterioration
Sewer pipes, like other pipes in the home, can corrode or deteriorate over time. Corrosion and other forms of deterioration can result in damage to the structure of the pipe. This can lead to leaks and contamination of land and ground water.
• Collapsed pipes
Sewer pipes can collapse as a result of external pressure. This can be from shifting soils, additional weight of a new construction on the land or simply because of the age of the pipes. The collapse can result in complete blockage of the sewer or backups.
With decades of experience, you'll get the job done right, the first time!
