A slow drain is rarely just a slow drain. When several fixtures act up at the same time, the problem is usually in the main sewer line that carries everything out of your home or building.
Many Metro Detroit homes have older sewer lines that are prone to buildup, shifting and tree root intrusion. We clear the line safely, explain what caused the blockage, and help you keep it from coming back.

Signs of a Sewer Line Problem
Sewer issues usually give warnings before they become a full backup. If you notice any of these, it is time to call.
Multiple Slow Drains
Several sinks, tubs or toilets draining slowly at once usually means a main line restriction.
Gurgling Sounds
Gurgling after flushing or running water points to trapped air from a partial blockage.
Sewer Odors
Sewer smells near floor drains, basements or laundry areas can signal a line problem.
Water Backing Up
Water coming up into a tub, shower or floor drain when another fixture runs is a classic main line sign.
Recurring Clogs
Clogs that keep coming back after plunging or store-bought cleaners need a professional clearing.
Soggy Yard Spots
Unusually green or wet patches in the yard can point to a damaged sewer line underground.

Sewer Line Service Questions
Still have questions? Call our team and we will help you figure out the next step.
Call (248) 371-0494What causes a sewer line backup?
Common causes include tree roots, grease and debris buildup, non-flushable wipes, and cracked, offset or collapsed pipe. Older sewer lines in Metro Detroit are especially prone to root intrusion.
How do I know if it is a drain clog or a sewer problem?
If one fixture is slow, it is usually a local drain clog. If several fixtures back up at once, or water comes up through a floor drain, the main sewer line is likely restricted.
What should I do if sewage is backing up?
Stop running water right away to avoid more backup, keep people and pets away from the area, and call (248) 371-0494 for service.
Do you offer sewer camera inspections?
Yes. A video inspection lets us see inside the line, find roots, breaks or offsets, and recommend the right fix instead of guessing.
How often should a sewer line be cleaned?
It depends on your line. Homes with older pipes or mature trees nearby may benefit from regular maintenance clearing. We can recommend a schedule after inspecting your line.
