Sewer Backups Are the Top Emergency Here
Litchfield Park’s mature trees send roots into older sewer lines. For a while, the line still flows. Then one day, often when the house is full of guests and every bathroom is in use, it blocks completely and sewage comes up the lowest drain.
If that happens, stop running water right away. Every flush and every shower adds to the backup. Then call us. We clear the line from the cleanout and let you know whether roots are the cause and what can be done long-term. See sewer line repair in Litchfield Park.
Holiday Drain Disasters
Holidays are a busy time for plumbing emergencies. More people means more showers, more flushes and more cooking. Grease from holiday meals poured down the kitchen sink hardens in the drain. Extra guests put more strain on sewer lines that already have roots.
A few tips:
- Pour cooking grease into a can, not down the drain
- Scrape plates into the trash before rinsing
- Space out showers if you have a slow drain
- Know where your sewer cleanout is
If something backs up anyway, call us, even on the holiday.

After a Sewer Backup
Once we clear a sewer backup in your Litchfield Park home, there are a few things to know.
Cleanup. Sewage is unsanitary. For small backups in a tub or shower, disinfecting thoroughly may be enough. For backups onto flooring or carpet, a professional water damage and sanitation company is the safer choice.
The cause. In Litchfield Park, roots are the most common reason. If roots were involved, the line will likely clog again. We will tell you what we found and what your options are.
Insurance. Some policies cover sewer backups with a specific rider. Check your policy.
We explain everything before we leave, and there is no pressure to do more than the emergency clearing that day.
Burst Lines in Older Homes
Litchfield Park homes from the 1960s through the 1980s can have galvanized or aging copper supply lines. When one of those lines bursts, it is usually at a fitting or a spot weakened by corrosion. Shut off the main, move valuables and call us. We repair the break and let you know if the rest of the pipe is likely to follow. See repiping in Litchfield Park.

Alex arrived at our house on short notice. He did a great job and explained the cause (which I always appreciate) of the clogs, so I can hopefully prevent in future. Prompt and courteous. I recommend him and his brother.
