However, there will always be incidents where a home is not protected, and homeowners fall victim to a sewer backup. Scarborough plumbers on our team are always prepared with verified techniques to remove drain sewer blockages that result in sewer system backups. Scarborough residents may want to learn more about:

HydroScrub^® Jetting

After a general inspection, our plumbing professional may opt for a hydro jetting to blast away any intruding clogs using pressurized jets of water and manoeuvring them through your home's wastewater lines. Plumbers position the head of the nozzle into a key access point on the drain line and slowly start to lower the hose into the line as the cleaning starts. The nozzle creates enough physical force to break off debris and remnants of the pipe’s walls and drag itself through the pipe during the cleaning process. By default, the added weight will pull the water and debris into the sewer.

Drain cleaning solutions like hydro jetting can help prevent messy Scarborough sewer backup situations because you are blasting any clog-causing debris that results in sewer backups. Scarborough residents who invest in preventative maintenance can prevent major plumbing issues such as sewer backups. Scarborough homeowners can ask our team for effective solutions on how else you can protect your plumbing system.

Clogged Drain

As we said, most problems in sewer systems begin with your household's clogged drains, which, if not dealt with, can lead to further pressure on your main and lateral lines and can lead to issues such as a sewer backup. Scarborough homeowners will see our plumbers utilize video camera inspection during your plumbing service to detect the source of the clog and use hydro jetting to eliminate it. There are numerous reasons that this blockage might appear, from food waste, strands of hair, skin flakes, soap scum to mineral deposit buildup on the walls of drain pipes, but you can rest assured that hydro jetting will eliminate the blockage no matter the cause.

Trenchless Sewer Line Repair

If, during the sewer backup, Scarborough plumbers detect sewer line damage, we’ll map out the best repair solution. Hydro jetting is an effective way of making the view clear, enabling us to check for damage. Besides household debris, it could also be a tree root intrusion.

After removing the roots or clog, we’ll mark the exact area that requires repair. Rest assured that we offer trenchless sewer line repair services, which are minimally invasive and don’t require excavation.

FAQs About Sewer Backups Scarborough

What Are the Red Flags That I May Have a Sewer Backup?

Scarborough homeowners should be on the lookout for everything from a rotten egg odour indicative of sulphur dioxide fumes wafting from their sinks, showers, or drains to gurgling sounds, slower-moving drains, or water backups in the shower or tub are all signs something is about to go awry and result in a plumbing emergency such as a sewer backup. Scarborough residents who notice that multiple drains have backed up at the same time or have a recurring drain clog that keeps coming back, that’s a good sign that something is wrong with your main sewer line, and you should contact the professionals at Mr. Rooter Plumbing to schedule our Scarborough sewer backup services.

What Is the Likelihood My Basement Will Flood during a Sewer Backup?

Scarborough residents, is your basement floor drain flooding when you use your plumbing fixtures? Although there are numerous reasons for a sewer backup Scarborough residents may encounter, including clogs and excessive rainwater, completely ignoring the problem can result in your basement flooding as your floor drain is now backed up.

Your basement floor drain is located at the lowest point of your basement, and its purpose is to redirect any excess water safely away from the house and into the sewer system, including the municipal storm drain system. As a failsafe, it keeps your basement floor dry, prevents flooding in the case of a heavy rainstorm, and protects your personal belongings.

Whether it’s slow-draining to bubbling noises and odd odors, the likely culprit is that these drain line issues are due to a blockage or other issues. When there’s a clog in your drain lines, wastewater is upchucked back into the closest drain during a sewer backup. Scarborough residents who are unable to clear the clog on their own or aren’t confident that your sewer pipe is affected, it’s best to contact your plumber to inquire about our Scarborough sewer backup or drain cleaning services. After a complete inspection, our team will provide you with hydro jetting service that will blast away that blockage, clearing your drain lines and helping to prevent a messy sewer system backup Scarborough residents do not want to experience.
