Sewer Drain Cleaning
A sewer system backup can wreak havoc on your home plumbing. Residential sewer system backups can cause raw sewage to seep into your home through your drains, causing significant health and safety hazards that affect your entire family. If your plumbing system hasn’t been cleaned in a while, call the experts at Mr. Rooter Plumbing for a professional assessment.
Blockages can cause pipes to be over-stressed from clogging and suffer increased water pressure over time. Making sure your pipes flow smoothly improves performance while lengthening the lifespan of your plumbing system. Water leaks from clogs can cause property damage, rotting, and mold growth over time. It’s best to discover and address blockages early before they lead to further issues, such as leaks in your sewer system, health issues, or building insurance complications.
Signs that you may have an undetected sewer leak:
- Damp, musty, or strong odors, especially sewage smells
- Rusty pipe joints but no visible leak
- Dripping sounds without a visible leak
- Groaning noises when water taps are turned on
- Gurgling noises coming from drains or the toilet
- Squealing faucets
- Ever-increasing water bills
- Backed-up water flow from the toilet, shower, or a single sink drain
- Any visible drain backups stemming from toilets
- Excess accumulation of water around the basement floor drain
- No water in your toilet bowl
Tree Root Intrusion Solutions
One of the most common causes of sewer system backups is tree root intrusions. Condensation on leaking pipes attracts tree roots that are in search of nourishment. These tree roots can easily slip in through tiny separations in pipe sections to infiltrate your sewage system. The tree roots begin branching out and growing throughout that area, eventually clogging and bursting your pipes.
We have extensive training and use the latest tools and technology to solve sewer system backups caused by tree root intrusions. We can also assist with a sewer backup prevention system that will make it less likely that you will ever experience a residential sewer system backup. Some of our tree root intrusion solutions include:
Rooter Work & Drain Cleaning: We can punch through the clog caused by the tree root and get your sewer functioning again. We then check the extent of the tree root problem and can recommend more permanent solutions.
Hydrojetting: We offer our hydro-jetting service as a long-term solution for sewer system backups. Our technician will clean your sewer pipes using highly pressurized water jets that scour the line and eliminate grease buildup, dirt, rocks, tree roots, and other debris. This debris is safely pushed out into your city’s sewer system.
Pipe Lining: If your clog has caused a need for repairs, we offer a permanent solution to sewer system backup where we line your entire sewer pipe with a specialized sleeve that seals it, eliminating the water leakage that attracts tree roots. This prevents digging up your yard or demolishing walls or other structures on your property to gain access to your pipes.
Pipe Bursting: Pipe bursting is another permanent solution to resolve sewer system backups with new piping. We use precise hydraulics to break apart your old sewer pipe and simultaneously install a new, seamless pipe.
Maintenance: Besides resolving sewer system backups, we offer precise, effective sewer backup prevention systems, including routine, regular maintenance and drain cleaning to prevent clogs, root intrusion, and backups.
