Sewer lines<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nWhether you have a clogged shower drain, slow bathtub drain, or backed-up floor drain, our expert plumbers will inspect your clogged drain and clear your clog immediately. The cause of your clog may be obvious or may need to be detected with our state-of-the-art video inspection equipment.<\/p>\n
Residential Sewer Line Cleaning<\/h4>\n
The sewer line that connects your home to a municipal sewer line or septic tank is the most important pipe that needs to function properly. All wastewater that exits a home or building must be able to pass through this pipe. If there’s any sort of blockage to the sewer line, there will be a messy backup.<\/p>\n
Our plumbers have the right equipment for your sewer blockage. If it’s a tree root infiltration, then a cable (snake) with blades on the end may be used. Then, if necessary, a high-pressure sewer water jetting system will be used to flush it out.<\/p>\n
If it’s a sludge-type clog, such as grease in your sewer line, then sewer jetting may be the best solution for your clogged sewer line. Our plumbers will provide the best solution for cleaning your main sewer line.<\/p>\n
Remove Tree Roots From Your Sewer Line With Sal’s<\/h4>\n
Sewer lines constructed of clay tile pipes often have root growth infiltration through pipe joints or cracks. They come in from surface trees or shrubs. Roots enter a sewer laterally, seeking water and nutrients. Roots continue to grow inside a sewer line, becoming larger and larger, forming a blockage.<\/p>\n
Using an electric cable snake, root blockages can be economically removed. For more difficult root masses, they can be temporarily removed by a cutter head on a snake cable machine. Cutting or removing roots from a sewer line doesn’t guarantee eliminating future root problems. Just as surface tree roots will grow, the roots can infiltrate back into the sewer line.<\/p>\n
Commercial Sewer Cleaning<\/h4>\n
Grease, food residue, and other buildup can slowly collect inside commercial sewer lines, restricting flow and increasing the risk of backups. This is especially common in restaurants, kitchens, and other businesses where large amounts of wastewater move through the plumbing every day. Sal\u2019s uses high-pressure sewer jetting to break apart stubborn grease and debris inside the line, then flush that material away with the force of the water.<\/p>\n
Jetting can be a strong option when a basic drain cleaning is not enough to fully clear the pipe. By cleaning more of the inside surface of the line, it can help restore better flow and reduce the amount of buildup left behind.<\/p>\n

\nWhy do multiple drains in my house start backing up at the same time?<\/summary>\nWhen several drains slow down or back up together, the problem may be farther down the plumbing system rather than at one individual fixture. A blockage in the main sewer line can affect toilets, tubs, floor drains, and sinks throughout the home, so widespread drainage problems should be inspected promptly.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n
\nWhy does my drain clog again a few weeks after I clear it?<\/summary>\nA recurring clog usually means part of the blockage remains or there is an underlying pipe problem. Grease buildup, tree roots, scale, damaged piping, or a restriction deeper in the line can all cause the same drain to slow down again after a temporary clearing.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n
\nWhat does it mean if my toilet gurgles when I use the sink or shower?<\/summary>\nGurgling can happen when air is being displaced through the drainage system because wastewater is struggling to move past a blockage. If the sound appears along with slow drains, bubbling toilets, or backups, it may point to a developing drain or sewer-line obstruction.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n
\nIs it safe to keep using chemical drain cleaner on a stubborn clog?<\/summary>\nRepeatedly using chemical drain cleaners is not a good long-term solution for a clog that keeps returning. The product may not reach or remove the actual obstruction, and some chemicals can be hard on certain plumbing materials. A persistent blockage is better diagnosed so the cause can be cleared directly.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n
\nHow do I know if the clog is in the drain or the sewer line?<\/summary>\nA clog that affects only one sink, shower, or toilet is more likely to be isolated to that fixture or branch drain. Problems affecting several fixtures at once, especially lower-level drains, are more concerning for a main sewer-line blockage. A camera inspection can help locate the problem when the source is not obvious.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n
