With a repaired sewer line, your home gets a fresh start. Thanks to trenchless sewer repair in Shoreline, WA, as provided by the experts at Price Busters Plumbing & Sewer, minimal maintenance is required to keep sewer lines in optimal condition. Be that as it may, a few small habit changes can ensure the fix lasts long-term. Follow these steps to keep your newly restored sewer line in tip-top shape.
Be Careful with What You Flush
Flushing things that don’t break down easily is a quick way to strain a sewer line. To protect your sewer after a trenchless pipe repair, avoid flushing anything but toilet paper.
Remember that wipes, paper towels, and hygiene products can all cause clogs or backups. Steer clear of wipes labeled “flushable,” as these don’t degrade as fast as toilet paper. For kitchens, avoid pouring grease or oils down drains to prevent drain clogs. Grease and oils should be tossed in the trash to prevent buildup.
Commit to Routine Check-Ups
A repaired sewer line needs to be routinely inspected. Routine visits with a plumber can help you catch issues like tiny cracks or growing root intrusions. By spotting these issues before they worsen, you avoid costly repairs and unnecessary stress.
Watch for Tree Roots
Tree roots love water, and they’ll search for it anywhere they can—including in your sewer line. Roots may infiltrate portions of your sewer line that were not subject to repairs.
When planting trees or shrubs, avoid placing them near your pipes. Even trees with roots yards away from your sewer line can eventually reach your pipes. If you have large trees on your property and you notice toilet backups or slow drains at home, talk with a professional. A quick sewer camera inspection can identify whether tree roots are to blame.
Proper care is key to a lasting sewer line. For more details on how to protect your newly fixed sewer line, contact us today at Price Busters Plumbing & Sewer. We are ready to help keep your sewers flowing and functional!
