Common Drain and Sewer Problems We Clean in Norristown

Kitchen Sink Clogs and Backups

Grease and food particles build up quickly in busy kitchens.

Recognizing the Problem

• Sink drains slowly even after you run hot water
• Water backs up when the disposal runs
• Bad smell lingers under the sink
• Multiple days of slower draining
• Gurgling sound when the washer drains
• Standing water after you finish dishes
• Disposal makes a humming noise
• Clog returns after using chemical cleaners

We camera the line, then hydro jet or snake to remove the grease and food debris completely.

Older homes here see more of these because of the original narrow drain lines.

Bathroom Sink and Shower Drain Clogs

Hair and soap create sticky buildup that traps more debris.

Recognizing the Problem

• Shower water pools around your ankles
• Sink takes minutes to empty
• Hair is visible in the drain
• Soap scum coats the pipe walls
• Water backs up when the tub is used
• Multiple bathroom drains slow together
• Smell rises from the overflow
• Clog worsens after long showers

We remove the trap, flush the line, and clear the clog so water flows freely again.

Toilet Clogs and Overflows

Toilet paper, wipes, or toys can stop a toilet instantly.

Recognizing the Problem

• Water rises to the rim on every flush
• Bowl will not empty completely
• Gurgling in other fixtures when you flush
• Plunger barely moves the water
• Overflow happens after one use
• Strange noises from the sewer line
• Multiple toilets affected at once
• Clog returns after chemical treatment

We use a closet auger or camera to locate and remove the blockage without damaging the bowl.

Main Sewer Line Backups

When the main line clogs the entire house is affected.

Recognizing the Problem

• All drains slow or stop at the same time
• Sewage smell in the basement
• Water comes up through floor drains
• Toilet and sink back up together
• Yard area near cleanout is wet
• Multiple fixtures gurgle loudly
• Basement laundry sink overflows
• Problem started after heavy rain

We camera from the cleanout and hydro jet the entire main line to restore flow.

Slow Draining Fixtures Throughout the House

When every drain is sluggish the problem is usually in the main line.

Recognizing the Problem

• All sinks take longer to empty
• Showers fill the tub base
• Toilet flushes sluggishly
• Disposal backs up into the sink
• Problem has worsened gradually
• Hard water mineral smell present
• House is more than thirty years old
• Chemical cleaners give only short relief

We perform a full line inspection and cleaning to bring everything back to normal speed.

Grease, Hair and Soap Scum Buildup

These materials coat pipe walls and trap more debris over time.

Recognizing the Problem

• Hair collects in the shower weekly
• Soap residue visible in pipes

• Bad odor from drains
• Multiple family members using the same bathroom

Hydro jetting cuts through the buildup and flushes it away completely.

Tree Root Intrusions in Sewer Lines

Tree roots seek moisture and crack into old clay or cast iron lines.

• Problem worse after rain
• Roots visible when line is opened
• Sewer smell in the yard
• Multiple drains affected seasonally
• House built near large trees
• Line is over forty years old

• Raw sewage in the basement
• Multiple fixtures overflowing
• Strong odor throughout the home
• Water rising in floor drains
