Sewage Backup Cleanup Serving Knoxville, TN and surrounding communities

Sewage Backup issues can occur anytime and without warning. Something as simple as roots gathering into a drainage pipe, or even a backflow issue that was caused by a major line, can cause unthinkable damage. One of the most common trees in Knoxville, TN is the Southern Red Oak. Their roots are terribly invasive and over time, they can make their way into home or business drainage pipes. There are noticeable trends to pay attention to avoid larger sewage-related issues and we will cover some of them below. However, if you’re in need of service immediately, call our 24/7 emergency line, and we will be on-site and ready to work immediately.

Signs of Sewage Issues:

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.
