What causes your drain line to clog? 

Tree roots 

Tree roots can stretch in search of moisture, which could cause big problems for your pipes and sewer line. Sometimes the roots can penetrate the line and block water flow.  

Grease and oil 

It is never a good idea to dispose of grease, fats, and oils down your drain. When done repeatedly, over time these items will harden and clog your drain.  

Objects  

Disposing of products such as tampons, wipes, and other items not designed to break down properly in your drain line can get stuck and block water flow.  

What are the signs of a clogged drain? 

• Gurgling sounds coming from the drain or toilet  
• Water rises into your floor drain when you flush the toilet  
• Water is slow to drain out of the shower or bathtub
