WHY SHOULD YOU CHOOSE ULTIMATE PLUMBING & HVAC FOR SEWER REPAIRS IN HUNTERSVILLE?
WHY DO SEWER LINE PROBLEMS HAPPEN?
Sewer line clogs, backups, and blockages can often result from any of the following:
- Grease, Fat, and Oil Buildup: Slick substances stick to pipe walls over time and trap other debris flowing down drains. Kitchen sink drains are most prone to grease clogs.
- Intruding Tree Roots: Root systems from shrubs or trees planted too close to sewer lines can grow inside pipes to find water, jamming the line.
- Toilet Paper & Other Solids: Older plumbing may have narrow pipes that can’t handle the amount of toilet paper and solid waste flowing through. Materials can snag and collect other debris.
- Collapsed or Broken Pipes: If sewer pipes crack, collapse inward, or become misaligned, they block the flow of wastewater and cause backups.
- Foreign Objects: It’s surprising what we see flushed or washed-down drains! Sewer lines frequently get clogged by toys, wipes, feminine products, and other items that won’t break down.
Many homeowners try DIY sewer cleaning solutions like liquid drain cleaners, metal snakes, and pressure washers when they notice gurgling sink or tub drains, overflowing toilets, or slow flushing. But these are only temporary fixes for one section of your Huntersville sewer system. The clog or blockage will likely recur unless the entire line is properly power-flushed and inspected by a professional Huntersville plumber.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT ARE SIGNS THAT THE PROBLEM IS IN THE MAIN SEWER LINE?
If all the drains in your home are sluggish or backed up, including toilets, showers, tubs, and sinks, the clog is likely in your main sewer line to the city connection. Plumbers can confirm the location with cameras.
CAN I PREVENT FUTURE SEWER LINE PROBLEMS?
You can prevent problems in your sewer line by taking appropriate precautions. Avoid pouring grease down sinks, limit toilet paper usage, don’t flush wipes or other unbreakable items, and install screens to catch debris before entering pipes. Regular drain maintenance also helps.
