Sewer Repair & Cleaning
Sewer backups and blockages can happen at the most inconvenient time. When a sewage or drain line gets blocked or damaged, it can disrupt your schedule. In order to fix your drain and sewer issues, you need emergency plumbing fast.
Common Sewer Line Issues
A sewer line can experience many problems. It may crack over time and collapse and require replacement. Tree roots or other obstacles may find their way into the line, creating massive blockages. In this case, the obstacles need to be removed and the sewer line needs to be replaced.
Another major problem affecting sewer lines is leach beds. When solids and fluid waste products enter a septic tank, the fluid will make its way into a leach bed. If the leach bed is not working as it should, the fluid will flow out of the ground, creating a swamp near your septic tank area.

Drain Cleaning
Regular drain cleaning and maintenance is important to keep your toilets, sinks, bathtubs, shower, and other fixtures working properly. If your drain has clogged, it can be an unpleasant experience for the entire family.
The most effective way to resolve this situation is to schedule drain cleaning sessions at regular intervals.
At Tumminello Plumbing, we recommend that you get your drains inspected and cleaned at least once a year. For commercial businesses, we recommend a more frequent schedule of about three months, depending on the type of drainage system they use and what is disposed of in the drain. We can
Common Causes of Drain Issues
Most sink obstructions happen in a pipe or trap, leading away from your fixture. The trap is typically a U-shaped section of the drainage system, which prevents smelly sewer gases, insects, and rodents from entering your home. However, this shape also means that blockages and obstructions form in this area.
If there are clogs in this area, we at Tumminello Plumbing can easily eliminate them by removing the trap pipes and dislodging the obstructions.
Bathroom drains are often clogged by hair, soap deposits, toothpaste, and toilet paper. Kitchen sinks are often clogged by food debris, grease, and tea and coffee grounds.
Signs Your Drain Needs To Be Cleaned
Several different factors indicate that it may be time to get your drains cleaned.
- A slow drain or water not flowing into the drain is the biggest sign that something is blocking your pipes.
- If you notice that the other drains in your house backup when you use a fixture in a separate part of the house, this means that there is a clog deep in the sewer line.
- Smelly odor and gurgling sounds coming from the sink, shower, toilet, or bathtub drains mean that it is time to get your drains cleaned. Nasty smells are the result of blockages that contain harmful pathogens.
If your drains are not cleaned appropriately, it can cause a slimy mass in the pipelines, leading to nasty-smelling clogs and backups. That is why as soon as you suspect there is a problem with your pipeline, it is important to call us.
Inspecting Your Sewer And Drain Line With A Camera
There are some blockages that are near the surface and can easily be removed without using any special equipment. For deeper blockages, however, we may perform a pipe inspection using tiny cameras that are designed to get a viewing in the dark and determine the exact location of the clog so that we may recommend the right remedy for it.
At Tumminello Plumbing, our team of licensed plumbers use a small camera attached to a flexible cable and lower it into pipelines. The camera goes down the pipeline and records the condition of the pipe’s interior while we see everything in real time on a connected video screen. The inspection helps us understand what is blocking the drain, whether it is hair, roots, grease, slime, or other debris, and form the best course of action to remove the obstruction.
Professional Hydro Jetting Services
One of the most effective ways to dislodge a clog is to use hydrojetting cleaning. We will direct a stream of high-pressure water at the obstacle, which will break it down and effectively dislodge it from the pipe walls. The debris will then get washed away into the sewage, resulting in a clear pipe and more efficient functioning.
Hydro Jetting is effective since it not just ensures the flow of water and waste again, but also prevents damage to your pipes and increases their longevity.
