What Are the Warning Signs of Sewer System Backup?

  • Water backup from the toilet, shower, or one sink drain.
  • Multiple drain backups.
  • Strong sewage odor coming from drains or outside near your home.
  • Any combination of drain backups involving the toilet.
  • Gurgling sounds coming from your drains or toilet.
  • Pools of water around the basement floor drain.

Tree Root Intrusions

Pipe condensation or leaky pipes will actually attract roots in search of nourishment. Go-To Pro  Plumbing technicians have seen how far tree roots can travel and how easily they slip in through tiny separations in pipe sections, small holes, or cracks to infiltrate a sewage system. Once water is discovered, the tree begins stepping up root growth in that area. More roots make the hole bigger and clog your whole sewer system—before bursting the pipe. Common signs of intrusion can include sewage backup in your bathtub or toilet, gurgling sounds coming from your toilet, tubs not draining properly, and no water in your toilet bowl. 

TREE ROOT INTRUSION SOLUTIONS

  • Rooter work and drain cleaning: We’ll first punch through the tree root clog to clear the line and get your sewer functioning again. Next, we’ll check the extent of the tree root problem and recommend more permanent solutions.
  • Hydrojetting: For a long-term solution, your technician can clean the pipe using pressurized water jets. These jets will thoroughly scour the line to eliminate grease buildup, debris, and tree roots.
  • Pipe lining: A permanent solution where we line your entire sewer pipe with a “sleeve” to seal it, eliminating water leakage. We may be able to line just the troublesome section of pipe. With this method, we avoid trenching and the need for demolition of walls or other structures.
  • Pipe bursting: Another permanent fix, Go-To Pro Plumbing can use hydraulics to break apart your old sewer pipe (whether clay, cast iron or PVC) and simultaneously install a new seamless pipe.
  • Maintenance: We also offer a continuing inspection and drain-cleaning plan to help keep grease and other household debris at bay. It will also eliminate roots from any unlined pipe before they cause a clog.

WHEN SHOULD YOU CALL GO-TO PRO PLUMBING?

Call Go-To Pro Plumbing now, even if you think you have an isolated drain problem, to prevent a bigger problem or a raw sewage backup. Our plumbers generally try to open the drain with a special drain auger or cable device. If this doesn’t work, we may have to use more advanced methods. We may find that tree roots have crushed your sewer pipe or drain pipe. Tree roots can also find their way in through pipe cracks or joints. In other cases, sewer blockages can occur from bits of discarded food/garbage disposal waste, hair, soap residue, sanitary products or thick toilet paper.
