Common Causes of Sewer Backups

Sewer backups can happen for various reasons, including:

Tree root intrusion – Roots can grow into sewer lines, causing blockages and pipe damage
Clogged drains or buildup – Grease, wipes, and debris can cause major obstructions
Aging or deteriorating pipes – Older sewer lines can crack, collapse, or corrode over time
Heavy rain and flooding – Excess water can overwhelm municipal sewer systems, causing backups into homes
Blocked municipal sewer lines – A problem beyond your property that requires immediate attention
