It’s not fun to think about but sewage backups can happen to anyone in any home. When we get calls from homeowners who need help diagnosing and repairing their sewer problem, the cause is usually one of many different things.
Tiptop Restoration is here for you! And all what you need is to call us. Just like your drain pipes, your main sewer line can become clogged, which can cause sewage backups in your home. If it is just one toilet, sink or tub that seems to be giving you a problem, it may just be a clog in that drain. If, however, every flush creates a sewage backup in your home, you likely have a blockage in your main sewer line.
Give us a call and our technicians will come immediately. Most sewer clogs can be prevented with regular maintenance and proper use of your drains. Another common cause of home sewer backups is tree roots. Even if the area directly above your sewer line is free of trees, roots from a neighboring yard could be the cause of your sewer problem.
Tree roots can cause a couple of problems for your sewer lines – they can grow into the pipes and cause holes and blockages or they may wrap around your sewer line and crush it. Your sewer backup could be caused by broken, cracked or collapsed lines. Although plastic sewer lines have now become the norm, older homes were built using cast iron and clay piping that can break down over time and create sewer problems. Don’t reach for what you think might be a cheap and easy fix to treat a clogged drain. These harsh chemicals can damage your plumbing pipes and sewer and result in making a simple fix a more costly repair.
Licensed Professional Plumbers from Tiptop Restoration also offer simple, low-priced treatment options which use enzymes instead of harsh chemicals that can often solve and prevent future problems. One of the best ways to pinpoint the cause of your home sewer backup is to have a professional from our company check it out. We can perform a video inspection of your sewer line and show you exactly what is causing the problem. We can then prescribe the most appropriate, safest, and least expensive solution.
