Commercial Sewer Line Maintenance and Repair

Commercial sewer lines experience heavier use than residential lines, making commercial sewer lines more susceptible to clogs and blockages. A malfunctioning sewer line can severely impact a business's productivity and requires a rapid, effective response to restore normal operations. 

At Roto-Rooter, we understand the importance of a well-functioning plumbing system for commercial facilities. Our sewer and drain technicians employ state-of-the-art equipment to unclog and restore your sewer system to operational status with minimal-to-no business downtime. Here are some key benefits of Roto-Rooter's commercial sewer line maintenance services:

  • Reduced downtime: Roto-Rooter's proactive approach to sewer maintenance minimizes the risk of unexpected sewer line failures, which can lead to costly downtime for your business.

  • Peace of mind: Knowing your sewer system is in good hands lets you focus on running your business.

Roto-Rooter provides scheduled maintenance sewer programs to meet the unique needs of Baltimore businesses. Our sewer and drain technicians will conduct a comprehensive walkthrough of your building to evaluate the condition of your plumbing and drain system. Based on their assessment, we then recommend a routine sewer and drain maintenance schedule. Our sewer specialists can also help you select the best drain maintenance products and preventive maintenance services for your sewer system’s optimal performance.

Trenchless Technology

Traditional sewer line replacement in Baltimore requires heavy equipment, deep excavation trenches, and damage to landscaping, trees, sidewalks, or other structures above the sewer line. Roto-Rooter’s zero-dig technology avoids this disruption and is often a better choice for homes or commercial facilities that want to avoid damage to parking lots, driveways, and trees. Our trenchless technology restores aging sewer pipes quickly and effectively, with minimal impact on landscaping, driveways, or other structures.

Roto-Rooter’s zero-dig process begins with a video camera inspection, which allows us to diagnose the problem and pinpoint the exact location of the damage. Once we've determined the issue and the home or business owner approves a recommended course of action, we can begin the pipe restoration process. Typically, repair work involves descaling and relining the damaged pipe, with only a modest access pit at each end of the pipeline required.

Importance of Sewer Line Maintenance

Roto-Rooter provides routine sewer cleaning to Baltimore County. Sewer service reduces the risk of clogs, sewer line backups, and associated expenses by preventing the accumulation of grease and debris in the pipes. A sewer maintenance schedule can prevent sewer line damage caused by plant root infiltration, which can damage pipes and create voids in sewer lines.

If our team of sewer specialists detects a potential issue during a maintenance visit, they may recommend a video inspection of the pipeline. A waterproof camera on the end of a cable is snaked through the sewer line, allowing you to view the pipe’s condition on a video screen. Addressing minor sewer line issues before they become serious problems is smart and cost-efficient.

Sewer line backups can cause sewage overflow from toilets, showers, and other plumbing fixtures, which can lead to property damage, health issues, and disruption of your daily routine. Without regular maintenance, Baltimore residents and business owners may encounter a range of severe sewer problems, including: 

  • Tree Root Intrusions: Small tree roots can infiltrate sewer lines, often at the pipe joints. Inside the pipeline, roots find a constant supply of water and nutrients. Over time, the roots grow, applying pressure that causes pipes to clog, break, or collapse. Left untreated, damage from tree roots only increases with time. 
  • Freeze/Thaw Cycles: Temperature fluctuations create a freeze and thaw cycle in the soil that can cause movement in underground pipes that could eventually require repairs.. Seasonal freezing and thawing causes the sewer line to expand and contract, increasing the risk of cracked pipes. 
  • Flooding: Low-lying areas of Baltimore may experience flooding due to heavy rains, storm surges, hurricanes and coastal inundation. Floods can overwhelm municipal sewer systems, forcing wastewater back up the pipes and into homes or businesses. 
  • Wear and Tear: While sewer pipes often provide decades of service, nothing lasts forever. The older your sewer line, the greater your risk of severe problems without regular sewer line cleanings. 

Signs that your sewer system requires maintenance or repairs include: 

  • Slow-draining sinks, showers, or bathtubs
  • Gurgling noises when toilets flush
  • Water rising up from the bathtub or shower drains when the toilet flushes
  • Constant need to plunge toilets 
  • Sewer smell from drains or yards
