The Importance of Sewer Line Maintenance
Regular maintenance is crucial for a properly functioning sewer line. Roto-Rooter offers scheduled sewer maintenance services to homes and businesses in the Kansas City area to protect against clogs, sewer line backups, and costly repairs.
By mechanically cleaning the sewer pipeline from end to end, Roto-Rooter's skilled sewer technicians remove obstructions and cut away tree roots, restoring drainage to 100% capacity. This proactive approach helps us detect and deal with potential sewer line problems before they escalate into critical emergencies.
It’s easy to see why a functioning sewer line is an essential part of any home or business. Unfortunately, sewer lines can be vulnerable to a variety of problems, including:
- Tree Roots: Kansas City’s many gorgeous trees are constantly in search of water and nutrients. Their roots often invade sewer pipes, especially older ones installed without modern pipe-sealing techniques. Once the roots have penetrated, they grow and spread out, catching waste and debris and sometimes filling the entire pipe.
- Pipe Sagging: Sections of buried sewer pipe can develop a sag, especially if they weren’t laid out or installed correctly. Sagging pipes accumulate waste at their lowest points, creating blockages over time.
- Off-Grade Pipes: Historic buildings are abundant in the Kansas City metro — and so is historic plumbing. Older pipes made from materials like clay and iron are more vulnerable to various forms of damage and often need more frequent repairs or outright replacement.
- Grease and Debris: There’s a reason that items like grease, paint, food waste, and paper towels (among others) don’t belong in drains. If inappropriate items like these are repeatedly disposed of in drains, they can quickly form clogs in your sewer line.
Regular sewer line maintenance is an effective way to prevent problems, protect against costly repairs, and ensure the proper functioning of your sewer system. If you suspect any issues with your sewer line in Kansas City, KS, you can contact Roto-Rooter to schedule maintenance services or call our 24/7 hotline at 913-982-1299.
Trenchless Technology
Thanks to modern trenchless sewer line technology, Roto-Rooter can often replace your sewer line with minimal need for excavation. We offer multiple options for trenchless pipe replacement, including:
- CIPP (cured-in-place pipe): We insert a new sewer liner into the existing pipe. Heat or UV light cures the liner, which forms a new, seamless pipe within the old pipe and restores functionality.
- Pipe bursting: We pull a new pipe through the old sewer line, breaking the old pipe apart. The new pipe then expands to fill the space of the old pipe.
- Pipe patching: We apply a patch to the outside of the old pipe to seal cracks or holes. We typically use pipe patching for minor sewer line repairs.
