FAQs
How can I tell if my main sewer line is clogged?
Common warning signs include multiple slow-draining fixtures, gurgling sounds from toilets or tub drains, water backing up when you run the washing machine, and foul odors coming from floor drains or your yard. If several drains show issues at once, it usually points to a problem in the main line rather than an isolated branch line.
What causes main line blockages in Ocoee homes?
The most frequent culprits are tree-root intrusion, grease buildup, flushed non-flushable items (wipes, paper towels, feminine products), and scale or mineral deposits from Ocoee’s hard water. Aging clay or cast-iron pipes can also crack or collapse, allowing soil to enter and obstruct flow.
Do I need a full main line replacement or can it be repaired?
Replacement is only necessary when the pipe is severely collapsed, extensively broken, or undersized. Many issues—such as root intrusion, isolated cracks, and moderate corrosion—can be addressed with spot repairs, hydro-jetting, or trenchless lining. Our technicians perform a video camera inspection first, then present repair vs. replacement options with cost and longevity comparisons so you can make an informed choice.
How does your experienced team diagnose main line issues?
We start with a high-definition sewer camera inspection to visually confirm the pipe’s condition. If a blockage is suspected, we may use electronic line locators to mark the exact path and depth of the main. For suspected water main leaks, we employ acoustic leak detectors and pressure tests. This data lets us pinpoint the problem without unnecessary digging, saving you time and money.
What is trenchless main line repair and is it available in Ocoee?
Yes. Trenchless methods—such as pipe bursting and cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining—allow us to rehabilitate or replace the pipe through small access points, avoiding extensive excavation. They’re ideal for properties with mature landscaping, driveways, or patios you’d rather not disturb. Most repairs can be completed in a single day and meet or exceed the life expectancy of new PVC pipe.
How quickly can you respond to a main line emergency?
Our Ocoee service team is on call 24/7. For true emergencies—sewage backing into the home, a water main break flooding the yard—we aim to arrive within 60–90 minutes. Fully stocked vans and trenchless equipment mean most blockages are cleared or lines are stabilized during the first visit, with follow-up repairs scheduled at your convenience.
