Are Slow Drains or Sewage Smells and Backups Affecting You?

Some of the signs of a dangerous and unsanitary blocked sewer drain that every home and business owner should be aware of include:

Slow Drains

If your main sewer line is clogged, you will experience drainage issues throughout your entire property. In contrast, a clogged secondary line will present as a slow drain or backup affecting only one drain line. For example, if you run water in your bathroom sink, and it backs up into your shower drain, but your toilet flushes without complication, the problem is likely isolated to that specific drain line. If pipeline drainage issues are affecting your life, Cypress Plumbing of Southwest Florida, Inc. will identify and eradicate the clog promptly to solve your problem.

Destroying Grease, Hair, and Root Drain Clogs

Drain lines are not something that the average person thinks about very often. However, when a drain line is clogged, extensive damage can occur to your property. There may be few signs until the line is damaged beyond repair. Tree root intrusions, accumulations of grease, hair, soap deposits, and other blockages build up over time, unnoticed, until drains slow and eventually stop draining altogether. We destroy and eliminate the source of the blockage and return your drains to optimal flow levels.

Pro Tip: Only Water and Soap Belong in Your Drains

To best avoid clogs, it is important to never flush anything other than human waste and regular, thin toilet paper in your toilet. This is particularly important to remember when dealing with the newer, low-flow toilets. Items such as personal hygiene products, paper towels, facial tissues, or other similar items should be disposed of properly in waste receptacles. Additionally, do not place anything other than soaps, detergents, and water into sink drains. It is particularly important to never dump cooking grease or oils into your sink drains. Only water and soap belong in your drains.

Locating and Repairing Broken Sewer or Drain Lines

If your drain lines have been broken, split, crushed, or otherwise damaged as a result of corrosion, neglect, tree root infiltration, or any other cause, contact Cypress Plumbing. You may have a “belly” or sagging sewer line that is preventing your line from draining efficiently. It will eventually rupture if left uncorrected.

If you are experiencing slow drains or sewage backups, it is important to determine the cause of the problem. Prompt repair can minimize the damage to your sewer system. The most common causes of sewer line dysfunction include: accumulation of foreign objects, roots in the sewer line, bellies in the sewer drain pipe, collapsed pipes, and offset pipes. We will send a professional plumber to efficiently diagnose, locate, and repair the segment that has been damaged or the entire line, if necessary.

Pro Tip: Home Buyers Should Inspect the Sewer System in Advance

Video-assisted plumbing system inspections are valuable to property owners in several ways. Prospective home and property buyers should consider inspecting the condition of drainage and sewer systems in advance of placing a bid on the property.
