Causes of Sewer System Backups
One of the most common causes of a sewer system backup is tree roots that have intruded into the sewer pipes. If you plant trees, bushes, or shrubs near your sewer system the roots may stretch downward towards the sewer pipes in search of water. As the roots grow, they break apart sewer pipes and cause clogs and debris. Other causes of sewer system backups include:
- Damaged sewer pipes
- Clogged or blocked sewer pipes
- Collapsed sewer pipes
- Heavy rainfall
- Lack of sewer line maintenance
- Old and worn-out sewer pipes
- City sewer problems, such as a blocked main sewer line
Repairing a Sewer System Backup
At Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Palm Desert, our sewer line repair technique starts with a video camera inspection of your sewer line. We thread a live camera through your sewer pipes so we can see where, how, and to what extent the pipes are damaged. We will then walk you through our sewer line repair options:'
- Plumbing Rooter Work - If your sewer system backup is due to a clogged sewer line or clogged sewer drain, we can use a powerful plumbing rooter to break apart clogs and debris so your sewer line is quickly flowing again.
- Drain Cleaning Services - After clearing out debris and clogs, we will flush your sewer line out so that all debris flows into the city’s sewer system.
- Pressurized Water Jets - For stubborn clogs or hard-to-remove buildup on the sewer pipe lining, we can use pressurized water jets or hydrojetting to clear out grease, oil, fat, hair, tree roots, organic matter, and other sludge.
- Pipe Relining - If your sewer line problems are due to damaged sewer pipes, we can line the entire sewer pipe with a quick-hardening sleeve that seals the pipe, prevents leaks, and protects it from further damage.
- Pipe Bursting - If the pipes are too damaged for pipe relining we can use hydraulics to break apart the damaged pipes so we can simultaneously install a new sewer pipe.
After we have completed residential sewer line repairs or replacements, we always recommend our customers follow up with regular plumbing maintenance of the sewer line. This prevents future plumbing problems like clogged drains, broken sewer pipes, broken water lines, and sewer system backups. We make it easy for customers to schedule preventative maintenance with our Advantage Plan, which includes sewer line inspections and drain cleaning services.
Sewer Backup Prevention System
We always recommend that our customers take every precaution to prevent sewer system backups from occurring. After repairing a sewer system backup, we’ll walk you through sewer backup prevention systems so you won’t have to call us again. You can reduce your risk of a sewer system backup by:'
- Only flushing toilet paper down the toilet (no baby wipes, makeup removing wipes, tampons, paper towels, diapers, cardboard, or other trash)
- Keeping the sewer lines free of roots by scheduling sewer line inspections and drain cleaning services
- Not planting trees, bushes, or shrubs near sewer lines or laterals
- Replacing old pipes or relining them
- Scheduling regular maintenance and plumbing repairs
We can also advise you as to whether you need to install a sewer backup valve, an exterior cleanout, or elevate your house drain.
