You do not have to wait until you have a full-fledged drain blockage. If you notice that all your drains are moving more slowly, this is a sign there is a problem with the main sewer line, and it should be addressed as soon as possible, as a backup could happen before long.

There are several issues that could cause a problem. Tree roots, as already mentioned, are a common cause, but it can also happen from a heavy vehicle driving over the sewer line or ground settling that has caused the pipe to fracture. Rest assured that whether you need hydro-jetting or pipe replacement, our team will do what is necessary to resolve your drain blockage.

Contact us today with any questions you may have or to schedule an appointment to deal with a drain blockage you are experiencing at your home. We also offer commercial plumbing repairs and drain cleaning.
