The Importance of Sewer Drain Cleaning

Sewer drain cleaning is an extremely important home maintenance task, but also one that often gets overlooked day-to-day. When a sewer problem arises, it is hard to ignore, and you want to take quick action. Your home's sewer system is responsible for carrying waste and wastewater away from your property to a city sewer line, keeping your living environment clean and hygienic. Over time, debris, grease, hair, and other similar substances can form together into a clog in your drains, leading to blockages and backups down the line. Regularly scheduled sewer drain cleaning can help prevent backups, remove clogs, and keep your drains clear. Investing in professional sewer cleaning services can help you avoid expensive sewer repairs and help maintain the overall health of your sewer system.

Our Approach to Sewer Cleaning

At Mr. Rooter of Springfield, we use a variety of techniques when we perform a sewer drain cleaning. Our plumbers are equipped with state-of-the-art tools and techniques to tackle whatever clogs and blockages your sewer drains can throw at them. We begin by conducting an inspection of your sewer system using advanced camera technology, which allows us to pinpoint the exact location and nature of any issues. Once any problem areas are identified, we offer a litany of specialized methods to clear your drains. From traditional snaking and rodding methods to water jetting, we have the expertise and equipment to clear your drains the first time. HydroScrub Drain Jetting, in particular, is a highly efficient method that uses a jet of high-pressure water to clear away buildup and debris present in your drains, leaving them clean.

Signs of a Sewer System Backup

Foul Odors: Smells like sewage or rotten eggs coming from your drains, toilets, or yard can indicate a clog in your sewer system.

Slow Draining: Water draining more slowly than expected from sinks, tubs, showers, or toilets can suggest a blockage in the sewer line.

Water Backing Up: Water backing up into sinks, tubs, showers, or toilets after flushing or using other fixtures can indicate a blockage.

Puddles or Wet Spots: Puddles or wet spots forming in your yard are signs of a sewage backup and mean you are probably in need of sewer cleaning.

Sewage Backup in Basement: Sewage backing up into your basement drains, floor drains, or utility sinks is a sign of a severe sewer system backup. Installation of a backflow preventer can help prevent situations like these.
