Bigger Problems Call for Greater Skill & Experience.
Most drain problems can be solved with a thorough unclogging and cleaning. But not all.
Indoor drain lines, for example, can gradually corrode and crack from a build-up, over time, of calcium and mineral deposits. Chemical drain cleaners will eventually take their toll, too.
As for outdoor, underground sewer lines, there are four main causes of cracks, breaks, or separation:
Old Sewer Lines
Depending on the material used in your older drain lines, weak spots caused by rust can eventually cause the line to crack.
Root Intrusion
Tree and shrub roots thrive on the material flowing through your main sewer line. They actually seek it out. Over time, they can find a way inside through even the tiniest of cracks. Once inside, it’s just a matter of time before no liquid can get past them and the pipe break gets even bigger.
Pipe Calcification
As time passes, sewer pipes become encrusted with a calcium coat inside the pipe which reduces the flow of the waste water and increases the risk of clogging in all household sewer pipes and drain cleaning Birmingham lines.
Ground Movement
As dirt settles and ground movement occurs, shifts, underground pipes can come apart at the joints.
