A mainline is the sewer line (or main sewage pipe) between your house and the street. All sewage/waste from your home gets eliminated through this line.

For example, after waste is placed into a toilet, it is flushed. The waste is then pushed through the mainline into the public sewer system. Some examples of what clogs a mainline include:

  • Toilet paper, baby wipes, napkins
  • Broken or collapsed sewer lines
  • Tree roots

Typically, a backup will occur at the line’s lowest point, such as a basement floor drain or basement bathroom. These out-of-sight fixtures are why most backups aren’t usually noticed until it’s too late.

By the time you do see the problem, it’s because the basement has already begun flooding. A potentially lasting problem, the real threat of mold and disease, extends to your property and possessions. These need to be remediated.

The immediate attention of a plumber is required to stop the damage as quickly as possible. In a drain backup situation, everything affected by the sewage (walls, furniture, etc.) will need to be removed and sanitized, and materials replaced.

The water damage caused by a burst pipe can be enormous and costly. You’ll need a plumber to stop the damage in its tracks so repair, replacement, and restoration can begin.

To prevent pipes from bursting in the future, it’s good to know some of the most common reasons for why it happens:

  • Frozen water pipes
  • Tree roots in water pipes
  • Corrosion in older water pipes
  • Water pipe bursts from shifting ground
  • Water pressure is too high
  • Clogged water pipes
  • Broken water pipe seals
  • Damaged water pipe joints
  • Incorrectly layed water pipes

Our immediate-reponse team will arrive on the scene, identify the issue, and prevent further damage from your burst water pipe.

We know how to fix the damage caused by a burst or leaking pipe, including restoration of your property. We pride ourselves on the property being made better than it was before.

There are two things you never want to have happen to your toilets at the same time.

You don’t want (1) a clogged toilet drain that is (2) continuously running. It’s a recipe for disaster. If left unchecked, it will lead to expensive water and flood damages.

The good news is that you can easily fix a running toilet. Often, a clogged drain can also be fixed easily.

If you’re unsure, or an overflowing toilet has already occurred, the best advice is to call your plumber immediately.

The combination of both issues has the potential of severely damaging your home or business and costing you hundreds or even thousands of dollars in restoration.

Rest assured, we know how to handle that too.
