Sewer Line Repair in Cranford, NJ
Backups, slow main drains and damaged sewer laterals.
When several drains back up at once, the problem is often the main sewer line. Tree roots, bellied pipe, grease and age-related cracks are common causes. A contractor may use a camera to inspect the line and suggest cleaning, spot repair or trenchless options.
Common sewer line repair problems
- Multiple fixtures backing up
- Sewage odor in the yard or basement
- Lush wet patches in the lawn
- Gurgling toilets after running water
- Recurring main-line clogs
When to call and what to do first
Stop using water and call promptly if sewage is backing up. Avoid contact with the water and keep children and pets away.
