Chicago Sewer Lines & Excavation
Your home or building's main sewer line carries wastewater safely away from your property and into the municipal sewage system. While most people rarely consider the condition of their sewer line, a clogged drainpipe or sewer backup is all it takes to remind us how much we rely on sewer line plumbing.

Importance of Sewer Lines Maintenance
Roto-Rooter offers routine sewer cleaning services to Chicago homes and businesses to prevent sewer line emergencies. Regular sewer maintenance reduces the likelihood of clogs, sewer line backups, and associated repair costs by preventing the buildup of grease and debris in the pipes. It also prevents damage to sewer lines caused by tree root infiltration, which can damage pipes and create voids.
If a Roto-Rooter maintenance team sees signs of a significant problem during sewer line maintenance, they may recommend a video inspection of the pipeline. Using a waterproof camera snake to navigate the sewer line, the technician will show you the problem on the video monitor screen as the inspection is happening, and provide options for dealing with any and all issues. Addressing minor sewer line issues before they become serious problems is smart and cost-efficient.
A sewer line backup can cause an overflow of sewage from toilets, showers, and other plumbing fixtures. Sewer overflows rapidly damage buildings and their contents, pose health hazards from exposure to bacteria-laden wastewater, and disrupt normal home or workplace activities. Without regular maintenance, residents and business owners in Chicago can encounter a range of severe sewer problems, including:
- Tree Root Intrusions: Small tree roots can infiltrate sewer lines, often at the pipe joints. Inside the pipeline, roots encounter a constant supply of water and nutrients. As the roots grow, they exert pressure, resulting in clogged, broken, or collapsed pipes. Left untreated, damage from tree roots only increases with time.
- Flooding: Chicago has a high water table, creating a tendency for rainwater to flow into the city sewer system. When this occurs, sewer lines may back up and overflow, resulting in flooded basements from plumbing fixtures.
- Wear and Tear: While sewer pipes often provide decades of service, nothing lasts forever. The older your sewer line, the greater your risk of severe problems without regular sewer line cleanings.
Signs that your sewer system requires maintenance or repairs include:
- Two or more slow-draining sinks, showers, or bathtubs.
- Gurgling noises when toilets flush.
- Water rising up from the bathtub or shower drains when the toilet flushes.
- Constant need to plunge toilets.
- Sewer smell from drains or yards.
