What Is a Sewer Line Cleanout and Why Is It Important?
A sewer line cleanout is a capped access point to your home’s main sewer line that plumbers use to diagnose and clear blockages. It’s important because it lets us locate the clog fast and repair the issue quickly, including during 24/7 emergencies. Having a cleanout can reduce digging and downtime and helps keep drains and toilets flowing in Lafayette and West Lafayette.
Quick signs you may need service:
- Constant clogs or back-ups in drains or toilets
- Slow drainage of tubs, sinks, or toilets
- Bubbling or gurgling after flushing
- Unpleasant odors around drains
- Settling or foundation cracks
