Sewer Line Maintenance and Repair A Guide to Keeping Your Sewer System Flowing Smoothly
A well-maintained sewer system is essential for the health and safety of your home or business. Sewer line maintenance and repair services can help to prevent costly backups and overflows, and can also extend the life of your sewer system.
How to Clear a Sewer Backup
If you experience a sewer backup, it is important to act quickly to prevent further damage. There are a few things you can do to try to clear the backup yourself:
- Plunge the drain. This is the most common way to clear a sewer backup. Be sure to use a plunger that is designed for toilets or sinks, and not one that is designed for bathtubs.
- Use a drain snake. A drain snake is a long, flexible tool that can be inserted into the drain to clear clogs.
- Call a plumber. If you are unable to clear the backup yourself, you should call a plumber. A plumber will have the tools and experience to quickly and safely clear the backup.
Preventing Sewer Backups
There are a few things you can do to help prevent sewer backups:
- Do not flush non-biodegradable items down the toilet. This includes items such as diapers, wipes, and feminine hygiene products.
- Do not pour grease or oil down the drain. These substances can build up in the sewer line and cause clogs.
- Have your sewer line inspected and cleaned regularly. A plumber can use a camera to inspect the sewer line for damage or clogs. They can also clean the sewer line using a hydro jet.
