Sewer Drain Backup: Servicing the Greater Portland Area

A sewer drain pipe takes waste from a home or building into the sewage system. A clogged sewer drain pipe can quickly lead to major plumbing issues, property damage, and even threats to your family’s health and safety. If you suspect that your sewer drain line is damaged or clogged, you don’t have any time to waste.

Commercial properties of all kinds need free-flowing sewer drains. But busy public restrooms and bustling commercial kitchens often contribute to a clogged sewer drain. That means property owners will eventually require a commercial sewer drain cleaning service they can count on for prompt, effective help. With more than 50 years of experience and locations across the country, Mr. Rooter® Plumbing is the dependable sewer drain cleaning provider you need to keep those sewer lines clear.

• Especially green, lush patches of grass in your lawn
• A wet spot in your yard that smells like sewage and may also be caving in
• An increase in insects or rodents inside your house
• A sewage smell inside and/or outside your home
