Sewer Maintenance

What Happens During Sewer Maintenance?

Sewer maintenance is an important step to take in keeping your sewer system running properly. While our services can differ depending on your exact needs, sewer maintenance typically includes the following services:

 

• Inspection: The first step in sewer maintenance is a thorough inspection of the sewer lines. This is often done using specialized equipment, such as cameras, to identify any issues or blockages within the sewer system. 
• Cleaning: Over time, sewer lines can accumulate debris, grease, and other materials that can obstruct the flow of wastewater. Maintenance includes cleaning the sewer lines using high-pressure water jetting or other methods to remove these blockages. 
• Preventive Measures: Sewer maintenance often includes preventive measures to reduce the risk of future issues. This may involve applying protective coatings to sewer pipes, installing liners, or implementing strategies to minimize the buildup of debris and root intrusion. 
• Testing: After repairs and maintenance are performed, we will test the sewer system to ensure it is functioning correctly and efficiently. This testing may involve checking for leaks, assessing flow rates, and monitoring the overall system performance. 

If any larger issues are uncovered during maintenance, our team can implement the proper repair or replacement. Reach out to us today to get started.

Do You Need Sewer Maintenance Services?

Sewer maintenance services are essential for both residential and commercial properties to ensure their sewer systems are operating properly. Here are some key factors to consider when determining if you need sewer maintenance services:

• Age of the Sewer System: The age of your sewer system is a critical factor. Older systems are more susceptible to wear and tear, making them more prone to blockages, cracks, and leaks. Regular maintenance becomes increasingly important as the system ages. 
• Slow Drainage or Blockages: If you have noticed slow drainage, recurring clogged drains, or unpleasant odors coming from your drains, these are signs that your sewer system may require maintenance. Blockages can disrupt the flow of wastewater and lead to more significant issues if left unaddressed. 
• Sewer Odors: Foul odors emanating from drains or your yard may indicate a sewer issue. Maintenance can help identify and resolve the source of these odors, which may be related to leaks or blockages.
