Homes with large trees near the sewer line should have the main line inspected and cleared annually to prevent root buildup from causing backups.
Magnet Plumbing offers same-day drain cleaning service in South Elmhurst for most clogged drain situations. Emergency drain cleaning — particularly for backed-up main sewer lines — is available 24/7. Most drain clearing jobs in South Elmhurst are completed in 1 to 2 hours from arrival, with the line fully flowing before our plumber leaves.
Chemical drain cleaners are generally not recommended for South Elmhurst homes with older plumbing. The caustic chemicals can accelerate corrosion in metal pipes and degrade older PVC joints over time. They also rarely clear blockages completely and can make the problem worse by causing debris to compact. Professional drain cleaning by Magnet Plumbing is safer and more effective.
Yes. Tree roots are one of the most common causes of sewer line problems in South Elmhurst neighborhoods with mature trees. Roots enter through small cracks or joints in older sewer lines and grow inside the pipe, eventually causing recurring blockages, complete blockages, or pipe collapse. Annual hydro-jetting and a root treatment can control root growth and extend line life.
Our reputation is built on results. Here is what our customers have to say.
"Fast response, fair price, and they cleared a stubborn bathroom sink clog I had been fighting for a week. Will definitely call again."
"Bought a new house and had a pre-purchase sewer camera inspection done. The plumber walked me through the footage and pointed out one section that would need attention in a few years. Honest assessment, no upsell pressure."
"Smelled gas in the basement late at night and called the emergency line. A plumber was dispatched within the hour, located the leak at a corroded fitting on the water heater gas line, and repaired it on the spot. They even came back the next day to re-verify with the gas detector. Truly appreciated the care taken."
