Maintaining and repairing sewer lines are essential aspects of a properly functioning plumbing system. When sewer lines become clogged or damaged, it can lead to unpleasant odors, sewage backups, and health hazards.
Regular sewer line maintenance can help prevent these issues. A professional plumbing service can inspect your sewer lines, identify potential problems, and perform necessary repairs. These services typically involve cleaning out blockages, repairing leaks, and replacing damaged sections of the line.
A sewer cleanout is a small access point installed in your plumbing system that provides access to the sewer line. These cleanouts are typically located in basements, crawl spaces, or outside near the foundation of your home.
Sewer cleanouts allow plumbers to access and clean the sewer line without having to dig up the entire yard. They can insert a drain snake or hydro-jetting equipment to clear blockages and ensure proper drainage.
