Several drains backing up at once usually points to the main sewer line. This is a serious issue that stops wastewater from leaving your property and requires proper diagnosis.

We use a waterproof camera on a cable to show the inside of the sewer line, including roots, cracks, and blockages. This tells us exactly where the problem is before we begin any repair.

What usually causes a sewer backup

Main line blockages happen for a variety of reasons over time.

  • Tree root intrusion. Roots seek moisture and enter small cracks in the underground pipes.

  • Flushed wipes. So-called flushable wipes do not break down like toilet paper and create clogs.

  • Grease and fat. Cooking grease solidifies in the line and restricts the flow of wastewater.

  • Sagging sections. Bellies in the pipe collect waste and stop water from flowing properly.

  • Separated joints. Cracked or separated pipe joints are a common cause of repeat sewer backups.

Safe checks you can make with no tools

Take these simple steps to understand the backup.

  1. Check multiple drains.See if the backup affects the whole house or just one sink.

  2. Find the cleanout.Locate the cap outside that provides access to your main line.

  3. Avoid chemical cleaners.These products can damage pipes and are hazardous to handle.

  4. Stop using appliances.Turn off the washing machine and dishwasher to prevent more flooding.

  5. Turn the water off.Every home has a main water shutoff valve, and turning it off stops water to the whole house.

Common questions about sewer lines

If your question is not listed, please call us and a real person will answer.

Can you clean a main line clog with a cable?

A cable can clear some blockages, but high-pressure water scours the inside of drain and sewer lines, removing grease, scale and roots that a cable can leave behind. We do a camera inspection first to confirm the pipe is sound enough for jetting.

What causes repeat sewer backups?

Tree roots, cracked or separated joints, sagging sections and buildup are common causes of repeat backups. A camera inspection shows the inside of the line and where the blockages are. A damaged section can be repaired or the line replaced.

Will you charge by the hour to fix my sewer?

We never use hourly billing. You receive a written flat-rate price before any work begins on your property.

Can I finance a large sewer repair?

Financing is available on larger repairs and replacements, subject to credit approval. Ask us about it when you call to schedule service.
