Why Is My Sewer Line Clogging?

Different problems may make your sewer line clog before you call for a professional sewer line cleaning.

The most common plumbing problems include:

A broken pipe creates a misalignment in your plumbing system, and dirt and debris can build up and cause a total blockage.
Debris can also clog up within your main sewer line over time, caused by excess toilet paper, soap scum, or even foreign objects like hygiene products that accumulate and block the main sewer line.
Grease and fat put down the kitchen sink frequently clog up the main sewer line. Running hot water down the kitchen sink won’t solve the problem—as the pipes cool, the grease and fat will harden up more.
Even if a tree isn’t too close to your home, tree roots can be a significant issue for clogged sewer lines. Roots can grow a long way to seek out moisture, and when the roots infiltrate a main sewer line, it can cause total blockage.
Shifting soil or a sinkhole may cause your sewer line to sag. When sewer lines sag, it causes wastewater to pool in the deepest sections, preventing water from draining correctly and often causing pipes to back up.

Can I Prevent a Clogged Sewer Line?

We can suggest preventative measures to keep your sewer lines free of obstructions.

However, scheduling a drain cleaning service is always best to properly maintain your plumbing system and ensure long-lasting results.

Locate Plants, Bushes, and Trees Far From the Sewer Line

Sewers can clog when trees are planted too close to the main sewer line.

In addition, tree roots are more difficult to maintain close to your house, and when the roots overtake the drain pipes, they can destroy your sewer line and cause a plumbing emergency.

Don’t Flush Wipes or Hygiene Products Into the Toilet

Waste and toilet paper are the only objects meant to flush down a toilet. Sanitary products are huge culprits for clogging pipes and causing plumbing emergencies.

Dated Clay Pipes Should be Replaced

Older homes were often built with clay or lead pipes, and corrosion can build up over time. Find out if your pipes are clay or lead, and consider replacing them before a plumbing emergency.

Schedule a Sewer Line Cleaning in Ottawa Once Every Year

High pressure drain cleaning done annually clears debris from your sewer line and foreign objects that can cause serious clogging issues.

Older plumbing systems may require more frequent sewer line cleaning, and we can provide a free estimate to ensure proper maintenance.

How Do Sewer Cleaning Services Work in Ottawa?

Dr. Pipe Drain and Plumbing’s qualified plumbing professionals use the highest standards and technology in our sewer cleaning services. During your free estimate for plumbing services, we’ll determine the severity of the blockage and use professional drain snakes or hydro-jetting to do the job right the first time.

Should I Try Unclogging My Sewer Line Myself?

Some homeowners look to DIY hacks on internet videos and attempt to unclog their drains.

The simplest drain snake may remove a simple clog, but you can’t know how solid the blockage is, and you don’t want a plumbing emergency requiring half of your sewer system to get dismantled.

A professional drain cleaning is the only way to target impossible clogs, and we use sewer jetting to wash jams away with high pressure streams of water.

High pressure drain cleaning ensures your pipes get cleaned without harsh chemicals.

Speaking of chemicals, soda or vinegar might work temporarily for a small blockage. Still, you should always be satisfied that the job has been done right the first time by top-notch plumbing professionals with the most modern equipment.

There’s no need for your hands to get dirty! Dr. Pipe Drain and Plumbing leaves your sewer clean and in the best shape possible — contact us and have a local plumber do the job right for you.

How Much Does Sewer Line Cleaning Cost in Ottawa?

Testimonials

Backed-Up Drain

It is not often that a plumbing company is able to save you 10,000 dollars. We had experienced a serious drain backup and received quotes from five different drain and plumbing specialists. These included some of the more popular local names, and a few that received a very high ranking on HomeStars. Most of them scoped the drain and told me all the root issues and the critical deficiencies that would continuously lead to problems. They suggested that that we crack the floor, replace the drainpipe, and have the pipe from the front lawn excavated, I would be looking at around $5-10k!

Max did the same exact research that these other companies did, but he told me that the drain was not deficient at all; in fact, it had many more years left! I know that Max was honestly biting his tongue when we discussed what these other companies had said. He rooted the drain (very fast) and there has not been a single issue with our pipes since.

Drain Replacement, Backflow Valve, Sump Pump, Etc.

When I woke up this morning, I was not expecting my basement to have transformed into a full-blown lake. One of our neighbors recommended Dr. Pipe. Our neighbors had needed to replace some of the drains under their home and also recently had a backwater valve installed.

Max came to us and talked about the quote. One of the great things about the discussion was that he took his time and explained everything to me. I remember that Max took the time to make sure that both my partner and I were on the same page and understood everything.

I really want to be honest and admit that I was not particularly friendly that day, I had already received three different quotes, and I just wanted the work to get started. We still decided to go with Max’s company, despite the fact that we already had several other quotes. It was not just about money that we were going to pay, it was about quality, it was about trust, it is about wanting to give my business to a company that wanted ME as a customer.

I can tell you that both Max and his crew came across as polite, clean, honest, and reliable. They were extremely pleasant to work with. The quality of the work that they delivered is excellent, and it certainly added value to the home. Even our insurance rates went down because of the quality work.

It is extremely comforting to know that I have peace of mind the next time that the rain comes down. During the last late-fall storm, it was extremely comforting to hear the sump pump turn on, that sound really allows you to sleep soundly at night.

I have no doubt that the pipes are going to be fine once the tree roots are growing and the snow melts. It is comforting to know is that even if they are not fine, I know that Max is going to be a phone call away to help me set things right. I would honestly be shocked if Max somehow did not uphold the warranty that we have. Honestly, that is the level of trust that we have in Max.

Drain Work and Sump Pump Installation

Max was the first person to respond to our call for help after our basement flooded. He was quick in determining what the root of the issue was, and fixed the problem quickly. In addition to finding the issue, he also showed us a (potential) issue in our sanitary and storm water drains. He managed to find the possible issue with the drain-camera in a quick amount of time.

Max was courteous and professional when it came to helping us find future issues as well. He helped us alleviate concerns about future problems, thanks to his professional explanation. I have to admit I was also pleasantly surprised by the work of his crew. They cleaned their area thoroughly each time as well. Now I know that extensive repairs are never going to be cheap, but I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised at how reasonable the pricing was. Max even helped us fill out the necessary paperwork to file for our basement flooding prevention subsidy.

Trenchless Sewer Pipe

I received two quotes for my plumbing. The quote from Dr. Pipe was good, but what I really appreciated was the fact that the professionals at Dr. Pipe took their time to look at the issue, do the research, and actually SHOW me the problem in real-time. The other company never did give me an exact quote, and I was quite worried about potential “unexpected costs.” Both Max and the rest of his crew were extremely professional, kept the area as neat and tidy as possible, and cleaned up after they were done. Despite the fact that I was not actually onsite during the entire three-day process, I felt comfortable enough to give them a key to the property. When someone actually came and took something from the property (I was expecting them to), Max actually called my private number and asked me whether this was OK. I would highly recommend the services of Dr. Pipe.
