As a property owner, you\u2019re responsible for maintaining the sewer line from your home or business to where it connects to the municipal line.

When you need reliable sewer line services, Absolute Best Plumbing is here to provide the expertise and service you can trust.<\/p> Understanding the causes of sewer line issues can help homeowners and businesses prevent damage and identify potential problems early. Here are some of the most common causes of sewer line issues:<\/p> Aging and Deterioration<\/strong>: Sewer pipes, especially those made from materials like clay, cast iron, or Orangeburg (a type of fiber conduit), are prone to wear and deterioration over time. As these materials age, they can crack, corrode, and collapse.<\/p><\/li> Tree Root Intrusion<\/strong>: Tree roots are naturally drawn to sewer lines because of the moisture inside the pipes. Roots can grow into small cracks in the pipes, eventually expanding and causing significant damage, including blockages and pipe collapses.<\/p><\/li> Improper Installation<\/strong>: Incorrectly installed sewer lines may have misaligned connections or lack the necessary slope for effective wastewater flow, leading to recurring issues and costly repairs down the line.<\/p><\/li> Polybutylene Piping<\/strong>: Polybutylene pipes were popular in homes built between 1978 and 1995. However, these pipes are known for their high failure rates, as they are prone to degradation from chemicals in the water, which can cause them to crack and leak.<\/p><\/li> Clogs and Blockages<\/strong>: Grease, food particles, sanitary products, and other debris can build up in the sewer line, leading to clogs that restrict water flow. If not addressed, these blockages can lead to backups and overflows.<\/p><\/li><\/ol> To learn more about common sewer pipe issues and best practices for sewer line maintenance, visit the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE<\/a>) resources on sewer line health<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p> Recognizing the early signs of sewer line problems can prevent extensive damage and costly repairs.

Here\u2019s an overview of our repair process and methods:<\/p> Our technicians begin with a video camera inspection<\/strong> to accurately diagnose the cause and location of the problem without the need for invasive digging. This technology involves feeding a high-resolution camera into the sewer line to identify blockages, cracks, root intrusions, and other damage points.<\/p> For clogs and blockages, we use hydro jetting<\/strong>, a non-invasive technique that uses high-pressure water to clear obstructions and clean the inner walls of the pipes. Hydro jetting is highly effective for removing grease, mineral buildup, and tree roots without damaging the pipes.<\/p> If a section of the pipe is damaged but does not require a full replacement, trenchless pipe repair methods can often be used. These techniques, such as pipe relining<\/strong> or pipe bursting<\/strong>, allow us to repair damaged sections without the need for extensive digging. Trenchless repairs are faster, less disruptive, and often more cost-effective than traditional methods.<\/p> For more on trenchless pipe repair, see the National Association of Sewer Service Companies (NASSCO)<\/strong><\/a> trenchless technology page<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p> In some cases, sewer lines are too damaged for repair and require full replacement. Absolute Best Plumbing offers professional sewer line replacement services, using methods designed to minimize disruption to your property.<\/p> If the sewer line is deteriorated beyond repair, has multiple points of damage, or is made from outdated materials, a full sewer line replacement may be necessary. Our team will excavate and replace the old line with durable, modern materials such as PVC or HDPE pipes, which are resistant to corrosion and built to last for decades.<\/p> When possible, we use trenchless sewer line replacement<\/strong> methods to reduce disruption to your property. With trenchless replacement, we can install a new sewer line without extensive digging, preserving landscaping, driveways, and walkways. This method is ideal for properties where traditional excavation is impractical or undesirable.<\/p> Preventative maintenance is key to avoiding costly sewer line repairs and replacements. Regular sewer line inspections and cleanings help detect issues early, ensuring your plumbing system functions efficiently. Here\u2019s why routine sewer line maintenance is so important:<\/p> For more on the importance of sewer line maintenance, refer to the National Association of Realtors (NAR) guide on property upkeep.<\/a><\/strong><\/p> At Absolute Best Plumbing, we prioritize environmentally friendly methods whenever possible. Our hydro jetting services, for example, use only water under high pressure, avoiding the need for harsh chemicals. Additionally, trenchless sewer repair and replacement methods minimize environmental impact by reducing soil displacement and preventing the need for extensive excavation.<\/p>Common Causes of Sewer Line Issues<\/h3>
