Common Reasons Why Your Sewer Pipe is Not Behaving

Have you ever pondered the reasons behind your plumbing system’s occasional defiance? Tree roots are a common source of trouble, as they gravitate toward the moisture and nutrients found in sewer lines, which can lead to obstruction or damage.

Grease accumulation is another frequent problem. When kitchen grease goes down the sink drain, it doesn’t just vanish. Instead, it coagulates inside your pipes, causing serious clogs that hinder the efficiency of your plumbing system. Items that should never find their way into our toilet or sink drains, such as toilet paper, tissues, and even those products labeled ‘flushable’ wipes, can become compacted over time resulting in severe blockages.

Then there are structural complications contributing to problematic sewer pipes. Changes in weather conditions can cause erosion while incorrect installation might result in broken or misaligned pipes. These issues not only impede proper water flow but could also allow for unwelcome sewage leaks – clearly an issue anyone would want to steer clear of. Our expertise in sewer line repairs ensures that such structural complications are addressed with precision, maintaining the integrity of your plumbing system.

Preventative Maintenance Against Future Sewer Line Clogs

It’s better to take preventative measures than deal with the consequences, particularly concerning a clogged main sewer line. Engaging in routine drain maintenance and sewer cleaning can prevent the distress of sudden blockages and expensive repairs required for your sewer line. Certified Sewer and Drain advocates for regular upkeep, such as professional cleanings and evaluations, to maintain an efficient plumbing system.

To diminish the risk of clogs within your pipes, there are multiple straightforward yet potent actions you could implement. These include:

• Steer clear from situating trees or shrubberies close to your sewage lines as their roots may intrude.
• Utilize strainers over drains to collect debris before it slips into your pipes.
• Be conscious about substances poured down drains—grease, food remnants, and non-biodegradable items should be avoided.

These precautions will aid in safeguarding your sewer system:

• Fit backwater prevention valves for defense against any sewage overflows
• Think about scheduling biannual cleans using high-pressure water jets that remove buildup from inside the pipelines
• Periodically inspect for leaks so you can address potential issues promptly before they escalate further.

Sewer Scoping or Video Camera Inspections

When it comes to proactive sewer services or preventative maintenance, we cannot recommend obtaining a sewer camera inspection enough. At Certified Sewer and Drain, we can conduct a thorough, professional and high definition video tour of your entire main sewer line. This way you can see first hand why blockages are a constant source of trouble or why we may be recommending something like ‘high pressure water jetting’.

In scoping your sewer lines, we are able to see and detect obstructions, fractures, blockages, and even types of materials which will be responsible for future clogs. Proactive solutions for your main sewer line are vital because they can and will save you a tremendous amount of money. Often times, we meet new customers and in the midst of doing a TV inspection can immediately state that is necessary.

For us, this is unfortunate. Most of the time, sewer line repair is completely preventable and unnecessary. Sewer lines which are damaged past the point of no return are very obvious on a camera screen. You’ll see plenty of cracks, holes, mineralization, and damage caused by tree roots growing through the pipeline in all areas. Jetting services should be performed on average every 18 to 22 months. This means we can keep your lines clear and prevent the damage from becoming too severe.

Average Cost of Sewer Line Unclogging Done by a Professional

The expense of hiring professionals to unclog a sewer line can vary greatly, influenced by how severe the clog is and where it’s located within the pipes, along with what removal method is employed and the overall state of your plumbing. For instance, dealing with a main sewer line clog can significantly impact costs, with starting prices for minor repairs hovering around $650, but larger projects like replacing a 30-foot section of sewer line might climb up to $7,500.

For example, snaking a drain typically represents an affordable solution on this spectrum—with costs ranging between $300 and $600—whereas employing hydro jetting techniques will increase expenses somewhere from $300 to an impressive $1,100. If there’s been damage such as cracks or breaks due to the clogging issue in question then you could be facing repair bills ranging from roughly $1,100 all the way up to about $4K depending on just how extensive the damage actually turns out to be when assessed.

Despite these potential financial burdens, taking advantage of proactive involvement with Certified Sewer and Drain services does offer value beyond their immediate cost. Namely because they promise superior quality workmanship plus longer-lasting fixes which not only means less hassle over time but also offers potential savings down the road too!
