There are different types of sewer line problems that we at Mr. Rooters respond to for both the residents and businesses of Katy. Some of them include:
Blockages
There are many things that can cause blockages in your sewer lines. Aside from solidified effluents, other things like grease and grime build-up, paper tissues, and even small children’s toys can also block the pipes and restrict the smooth flow of sewage. Furthermore, if there are trees and shrubs near your sewer lines, their roots are bound to find their way into the pipes as they search for water.
Corrosion
Cast iron sewer pipes are prone to corrosion over time as they are continuously exposed to water and outdoor elements. When pipes become corroded, they can collapse and which can render the sewer line useless.
Bellied Pipe
Ground conditions like shifting soil and settling can cause pipes to form bellies or valleys. These bellies provide a place for sewage and other items to collect, which over time will accumulate and cause blockages in the sewer line.
Leaking Joints
Leaks can occur at any part of a sewer line, but more so in the sharp bends and corners. As sewer lines age, the seals around the joints deteriorate and weaken, allowing waste water to leak and escape from the pipe.
