Sewer clogs point to a problem in the main system — that is, it includes multiple clogged drains and large blockages that make it impossible to dispose of waste collected from various drains and fixtures correctly. These include:
Grease clogs: grease collects in kitchen drains and pipes and coagulates, resulting in a clog that blocks future waste items from being flushed out.
Tree roots: trees make up a green, refreshing space, but their roots are attracted to nutrient-rich wastewater. This causes them to grow over the pipes and block the flow of wastewater. When left unpruned, they can eventually crush the pipes or cause them to collapse, which leads to leaks and flooding.
Other debris: sludge, grime, soap, shampoo residue, and other deposits also collect in the drains in multiple areas of your house, resulting in clogged drains and blocked sewers. In some cases, the chemicals from these waste items can also cause the pipes to corrode and degrade over time.
