Q: How do I clean my sewer line from my house to the street?

• <div><p>First, find the cleanout pipe in your yard. Unscrew the cap&mdash;you may need a wrench to do so. Then, get a drain snake. You can use a non-motorized one, but a motorized snake will make the job a little easier. Feed the snake through the pipe until it reaches the clog. Spin the snake continuously, but don&rsquo;t try to feed it through the pipe anymore. Keep spinning until you feel it break the clog apart. </p></div>

Q: What causes sewer main blockages?

• <div><p>Grease buildup, tree roots, and foreign objects often cause blockages. Regular maintenance prevents major issues.</p></div>

Q: Can I pour paint down the drain?

• <div><p>No. You should never pour old paint down a drain or sewer because it can clog pipes and pollute the environment. You must dispose of paint properly and safely. Different types of paint need to be disposed of in different ways&mdash;oil-based paints must be taken to a paint recycling center, while you can throw dried-out water- or latex-based paints in the garbage. </p></div>

Q: How do you fix a yard that doesn’t drain?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-yard-leveling-cost.htm">Regrading your yard</a> can often fix drainage problems. You can also try aerating the lawn to encourage better drainage or install a new drainage system to prevent water from pooling in certain areas. </p></div>

Repaired my leaking main Second floor bathroom drain piping. Whoever did the original repair/ install obviously wasn’t a pro. Probably a child it was so bad. Mitch did a great repair and not one leak.
