Sewer maintenance and care are absolutely essential to a well-run residence. It’s important to know what kind of pipes you have and what type of maintenance, if any, is in place. The older the pipes, the more issues that can arise. We recommend scheduling the main drain cleanout periodically to prevent costly and unfortunate sewer issues. Our team would love to discuss a maintenance plan that works for you. Even if you have a plan or you don’t know when the last time the main drain was cleaned, backups happen. In either case, we are here to help!
Main Drain Cleanout
Every residence connects to a main sewer line that flows to the city wastewater plant. Each appliance that drains water, from toilets to sinks to washing machines, connects to the main drain that leads wastewater away from the residence. If the main drain is clogged, you will observe one or more signs such as:
- Multiple drain backups in your residence
- Water backs up in the shower or sinks when you flush the toilet or run the washing machine
- See or smell sewage backup in your floor drain (usually located in the basement)
We will clean your pipes by inserting a high-power hose in the main drain to clear away all debris and any blockages or buildup. Once the pipes are squeaky clean, water flows smoothly and it’s more difficult for debris to attach to the insides. We can also add epoxy to further protect your pipes and prevent buildup.
