What Causes Damage To Sewer Pipes

Sewer pipes are so strong, that even if they’re in not so great shape they will appear to work normally. But that is the problem. You won’t notice any problem until it’s too late. That is why we want to talk about some of the most common problems that a sewer camera inspection will reveal.

Tree Roots
Root intrusion is a common problem with underground pipes. Roots naturally look for water and nutrients to extend their reach. As pipelines get old, the roots find their way through the pipe joints.

Have you ever seen those small plants that grow between concrete edges? That is exactly what a root does inside your pipes. Plants do not need much to survive. The difference is that you will not see or notice the roots inside your pipe until they are blocked.

Grease
Not throwing grease down the drain should be common knowledge, unfortunately, people still do it. The problem is that grease combines with other chemicals and forms a paste that blocks the pipes. This is such a serious problem that a report found that fat and oil blockages caused 47% of all sewer overflows that happen annually in the U.S. You might think that a little bit of bacon fat won’t matter. The problem is that everyone else is thinking the same thing.You should never throw fat, grease or oils down your drains. That includes butter, lard, grease, fat, and leftovers. If it’s oily, it goes in the trash.

Non-Dissolvables
Sewer pipes should carry only water or materials that dissolve with water. That is why toilet paper is fine to go in the sewer because it dissolves in water after a while. But things like baby wipes, paper towels, diapers, medications, to name a few, will surely clog your sewer lines. While this may sound like common sense, you would be amazed at a number of things our plumbing camera explorations have revealed over the years.
