Residential Sewer System Backup Warning Signs

Here at Mr. Rooter® of Tucson, we understand that homeowners don’t always know when they are dealing with a sewer system backup until the problem becomes obvious and expensive. To help you catch problems early, we have devised a list of some common warning signs, so you know when to contact our professional plumbers for immediate service:

Pools of water forming around your basement floor drain
Experiencing multiple drain backups
Water backing up from toilets, showers, or sink drains
Strong odors from your home’s drains or outside areas
Drain backup combinations that involve a toilet
Gurgling sounds emanating from drains or toilets

Sewer Line Tree Root Intrusion Solutions

If your home’s sewer pipes have leaks or condensation, they can become targets for tree roots searching for nourishment. Mr. Rooter^® of Tucson is here to solve any sewer line problems related to tree roots. Roots can slip into your sewage system via tiny pipe section cracks, separations, and holes. Once tree roots find water, root growth will increase. When additional roots infiltrate your pipes, the holes become larger and clog your system before eventually bursting your pipe. Some signs that you may be experiencing this problem include backups in your bathtubs or toilets, gurgling noises from toilets, bathtubs not draining correctly, or a lack of water in your toilet bowl. Our plumbers offer the following solutions:

Hydro Jetting – This long-term solution uses pressurized water jets to clean pipes. Our plumbers thoroughly scour your home’s sewer line to get rid of debris, tree roots, and grease build-up.
Pipelining – Our plumbers resolve sewer line damage permanently by lining and sealing sewer pipes using a sleeve to eliminate water leakage. Pipelining is an effective solution that avoids trenching, with no need to demolish walls or other structures.
Maintenance – Preventative maintenance is an excellent way to save money and hassle over time. Our technicians offer inspections and drain cleaning services to help you avoid the build-up of grease and other debris. Sewer line maintenance can help you avoid tree roots from wreaking havoc on your pipes.
Rooter Work & Drain Cleaning – We start by punching through tree roots to clear out your sewer line while restoring its functionality. Next, our team checks the extent of your tree root problems and recommends permanent solutions.
Pipe Bursting – This permanent fix uses hydraulics to break apart your current piping, whether your home has PVC, clay, or cast iron sewer pipes. A new seamless pipe is installed to solve your problems.
