Quick Answers (So You Know What to Do Next)
If water is backing up, drains are gurgling, or you smell sewer odor, the goal is to stop damage fast and identify the cause. These are the most common questions we get from Metro Detroit homeowners.
Signs of a main sewer line clog
Multiple fixtures backing up at once, gurgling sounds, water at a basement floor drain, and recurring clogs can all point to a main line issue. A camera inspection confirms the cause without guessing.
Hydro jetting vs snaking
Snaking can open a blockage. Hydro jetting scrubs pipe walls and removes grease, scale, sludge, and buildup that cause repeat clogs.
