Sewage Backup

Spring is upon us and we are seeing an increase in sewage backup issues.

The trees are beginning to bloom; as they do roots are growing as well. When this happens the roots have a tendency to grow into sewage lines. Root issues are some of the most damaging when it comes to sewage backup problems. Regular maintenance can go a long way having a company scope and snake your sewage line in the spring is always good practice. Like so many proactive measures, most people don’t know until its too late. Once the roots have had a chance to mature within the sewage line they can cause many issues.

Although root issues are predominant in the spring there are many things that can cause sewage backups. Another common cause of sewage backups are disposing of wipes and paper towels. Even “flushable wipes” come with a precaution to flush only one at a time. Additionally long hair can really stop things up when it catches on other blockages in your pipes. The last primary cause of sewage backups is grease which serves to build upon the pipes and other drain blockages.

Take these steps to insure that you don’t have a sewage backup:

• Regular maintenance is key for reducing sewage backups.
• Increase caution if you have large trees that can grow into your sewage lines.
• Never dispose of grease down the drain, poor greases into an old container and throw them away.
• Reduce flushable wipes and never flush baby wipes.
• Paper towels and Q-tips have no place in a drain.
• Regularly clean long hair from drain entrances.
