Signs & Causes of Main Line Clogs
A lot of issues can cause a main sewer line to become clogged. Here are just a few reasons a clog can form:
- Non-flushable materials: When thick materials like paper towels or napkins are flushed down a toilet, they can get stuck in your main line and stop the water flow.
- Grease buildup: Pouring a bit of grease down the drain may not seem like a problem, but it can build up over time and line the pipes, causing a serious clog.
- Age of pipes: Old pipes can break down over time, making it harder for materials to flow down the drain properly.
- Pipe damage: Damaged pipes can cause main line clogs due to the deteriorating material of the pipes themselves.
Why You Need a Pro To Clear Your Drain in Media, PA
When dealing with any severe clog, it’s easy to find yourself reaching for any solution but a plumber — but this can quickly lead to more serious issues. Serious clogs, such as main line clogs deep in your system, can be nearly impossible to clear without professional tools. A professional knows what’s likely going on in your pipes, can confirm the diagnosis with a camera feed, and won’t take actions that could damage your plumbing.
Many DIY solutions, such as liquid plumber products, can lead to serious issues in the future and might worsen the situation in the short term. For example, a liquid plumbing product might cause the breakdown of accumulation along the walls of your drains, but not to the extent that your clog clears. Now you have pipes full to the brim with caustic chemicals, sludge, hard water deposits, and more that must be resolved.
Trying to force a clog through with a plunger, another common DIY fix, can lead to serious damage to your drains if you use too much force. A plunger is best used to dislodge mild clogs with a gentle push-and-pull action — if you need muscle for the job, you need a professional instead.
Finally, working with a professional plumber on clogged drains lets you get to the root cause of your clog — which might be roots if you have tree root infiltration in your sewer line! Properly scouring your lines by a well-trained expert with a camera inside your line will prevent recurring clogs, slow drainage, and long-term problems that could damage your plumbing, lead to leaks and flooding, etc.
