4 Causes of a Clogged Sewer

Root intrusion is common in older sewers. Stoneware pipes are particularly susceptible to this. Root milling can solve this problem. In other cases, installing a new sewer system is necessary.

Excess grease is often flushed down the toilet. Think of food scraps, for example. Paint and other types of waste are also often flushed down the drain. Toilets and sinks aren't designed for this, of course, and can easily cause a blocked drain.

Some people use too much toilet paper or flush sanitary towels or cleaning wipes down the toilet. This can cause the drain to become clogged. Using a drain unblocker can help, as can some over-the-counter products.

Neither buyers nor sellers want sewer problems. Therefore, as a seller, always ensure proper sewer management. Don't flush everything down the toilet; use trash cans or other waste containers instead. This can prevent a lot of trouble. Still experiencing a blocked drain?
