Clogged Sewer Lines - Schuelke Plumbing Has The Solution

Your plumbing system is vital to the value and use of your home or commercial property. When your sewer lines are clogged, this becomes your main focus until your plumbing and sewer repair specialists can be on the scene. In properties that are considered to be older construction, more than about twenty years old, there are three main causes for clogged sewers. These are:

~ excessive mortar left at soil pipe joints

~ root intrusion from trees and plants

~ broken or burst pipes

A broken pipe or pipe that has burst will allow foreign matter to enter the drainage system, leading to clogging.

A dripping faucet is the most common plumbing problem as well as one of the easiest to repair. Then why do so many people ignore it and leave the dripping faucet unrepaired? A steady drip can waste thirty dollars or more in water in a short time. If you have more than one leaky faucet in your home, you can see how much of your money is literally going down the drain. The waste from a dripping hot water faucet is even more because you're also paying to heat the water before it goes down the drain.
