Main line backups

Roots, grease and buildup choke the main sewer line. When several fixtures back up together, that is where to look.

We clear it with a powered cable from the cleanout.

Kitchen and bath lines

Kitchen lines get grease; bath lines get hair. Each is cleared with the right cable.

Afterward

We run every fixture to confirm flow.

Root-prone lines benefit from periodic rooting.

Keeping lines clear between visits

Scrape grease into the trash, use hair catchers in tubs and showers, and skip flushable wipes, which do not break down in sewer lines.

Homes with big trees near the lateral benefit from scheduled rooting before roots close the pipe again.
