Sewage Backup Cleanup Serving Knoxville, TN and surrounding communities

Clogged drains that run out to the main sewer lines are the predominant cause of residential sewage backup issues. While these issues are highly difficult to predict, there are warning signs to pay attention to. Bad odors coming from sinks and drains can be a great indicator of a small drainage issue. Toilets bubbling can indicate a blocked line. In any home or business, especially ones with galvanized pipes, sewage lines can become corroded over time. If you notice something as simple as multiple sinks or showers draining slowly, this could be a great indicator of slow corrosion or clog. It’s time to act fast. Most homes and businesses have a cleanout drain that can be easily accessed. Any plumber can check the cleanout for debris and corrosion. While bad news is never good to receive, it’s better than the alternative. If you are experiencing any of the issues noted above, call a professional plumber. If your home or business has had a sewage backup issue, call our emergency line immediately as raw sewage is extremely harmful. 

Something as trivial as breathing in the harsh vapors can cause a myriad of symptoms such as fever, cramping, vomiting, and severe gastroenteritis. Sewage backup, even if it seems to be a manageable problem, needs to be remedied by trained and certified professionals. When a home or business experiences sewage vapors, even without a sewage backup event, the same symptoms can occur. It’s always better to get help as fast as possible. Our Knoxville, TN office has 24/7 emergency service and posts the fastest response times in all of TN.
