What Causes Sewer Line Damage?

Our team is happy to answer your questions related to your possible residential sewer line repair costs or residential sewer line replacement costs. We will visit your home in Van Buren, Greenwood, or Alma, AR to determine the cause of the problem and whether the pipe needs to be repaired or replaced. Your plumbing system works 24/7 to transfer water and waste, so sewer line damage is not uncommon. The toilets, sinks, and drains in your home can stop working for many reasons.

• Improper maintenance
• Poor sewer pipe design, installation, or layout
• Tree roots infiltrating joints or holes in the pipe
• Wear and tear caused by aging pipes
• The build-up of grease, sludge, hair, toilet paper, and other debris
• Constant cycles of the ground freezing and thawing out
• Backups caused by city sewer lines
• Heavy construction in the area, earth movement, or earthquakes
