Many homes in the Portland area deal with older pipes, heavy tree coverage, and seasonal moisture changes. These local factors can contribute to the following common drain problems:
- Grease and food particles in kitchen drains
- Hair and soap buildup in bathroom lines
- Tree root intrusion in outdoor and main sewer lines
- Foreign objects or wipes flushed down toilets
- Sludge or scale buildup in aging galvanized pipes
If you notice slow draining, gurgling sounds, or foul odors, it’s time to call in a professional.
