Importance of Sewer Lines Maintenance

Protect your property with Roto-Rooter's comprehensive sewer cleaning services and prevent costly plumbing emergencies. Our skilled technicians use mechanical cleaning methods to thoroughly clean your sewer pipeline from end to end, removing obstructions and cutting away tree roots to restore optimal drainage. By proactively addressing potential sewer line issues, you can avoid costly repairs, prevent property damage, and ensure a healthy, functioning plumbing system.

A sewer line backup can result in overflowing toilets, showers, bathtubs, and other drains, quickly causing severe damage to a building and its contents, increasing the risk of health problems, and disrupting your routine. Signs your sewer line requires maintenance include the following:

  • Sluggish drainage in more than one household drain, including sinks and bathtubs.
  • Gurgling sounds when flushing toilets.
  • Water rises from the bathtub or shower drains when flushing toilets.
  • Frequent need to plunge toilets.
  • Detectable sewer odors emanating from drains or the yard.

Common Causes of Sewer Line Maintenance in Modesto, CA

Without regular maintenance, Modesto residents and businesses may find themselves dealing with any of the following sewer problems:

  • Tree Root Intrusions: Small tree roots can infiltrate sewer lines, often at the pipe joints, where they find a constant supply of water and nutrients. Over time, the roots grow, applying pressure that results in clogged, broken, or collapsed pipes. Damage from tree roots only increases with time. 
  • Failure of Older Infrastructure: Historical buildings may have outdated sewer systems that require special maintenance and care. Regular mechanical or water jet cleaning helps maintain older sewer infrastructure by keeping pipes clear of roots and debris. 
  • Grease, Oil, and Fat (GOF): When GOF goes down the drain, it can solidify in sewer pipes, causing blockages.
  • Wipes and Other Non-Flushables: Wipes, paper towels, and feminine hygiene products can clog sewer pipes.
  • Aging Infrastructure: Old sewer lines are susceptible to damage. Over time, sewer pipes can become brittle and crack, making them more prone to blockages and leaks.
  • Flooding: Flood waters can overwhelm the municipal sewer system, causing backups and overflows. This is especially common in areas with poor drainage.
  • Soil shifting: Over time, the soil around your sewer line can shift due to erosion, rainfall, or seismic activities.

    Trenchless Technology

    Conventional sewer line excavation in Modesto often involves heavy machinery and deep trenches, potentially causing damage to landscaping, trees, sidewalks, and other structures above the sewer line.
