      Sewer Basics

      Property owners are responsible for getting waste from their home or business to the city’s sewer lines. If a back-up occurs in your bathroom, there is most likely a blockage in your line out to the main sewer. Find out as soon as you can if any of your neighbors are experiencing the same problems and this could give you an idea of where the problems resides. Under normal weather conditions (no heavy rain), a problem in your sewage line is most likely the fault of internal plumbing.

      Here are some possible problems:

      1. Trapped debris accidentally flushed down the toilet.
      2. Trees that grew roots along the pipe line.
      3. Cracks around the joints of pipes along the pipe line.

      What can The Drain Team® do for your Sewer?

      We handle these challenges every day and are experts at fixing them. We will begin by mapping out the sewer line, how it relates to your neighbors, and where it connects to the county line to isolate the problem. We can use the cleanout to run a snake through or even use video pipe inspection if necessary.

      Once we isolate the problem, we will give you a free estimate on a full repair. No hourly charge, no trip charges. Call now to schedule a free estimate.

  • Repiping
      Repiping

      The Drain Team® for a free completed job estimate on all repiping projects, residential or commercial.

      Repiping involves replacing an old, non-functioning plumbing and sewer drainage system with all new pipes and parts. When our plumbing technicians are finished, you will have a new plumbing system that will last for many years. Sometimes older homes have outdated and inefficient plumbing and drainage systems that do not meet city codes and need to be replaced. Older pipes may be made of the wrong material, cracked, plugged with tree roots or corroded beyond good use. If plumbing pipes are in bad condition, it is better to replace them.

      The two most common pipe materials in use today are copper and CPVC. Copper pipes are the strongest, longest lasting material. The solder used on joins is no longer led, so is safe. They can withstand rodents trying to chew them and do not become brittle with age. CPVC is a plastic pipe material that is less expensive and easier to work with. It will not rust or develop pin holes. Your plumbing technician can help you decide which material is best for your plumbing system.
