Common Causes of Drain Backups
Severe clogs in your sewer lines can often lead to sewer or drain backups, and they’re generally caused by problems like:
- Waste accumulations: Things like cooking grease, food particles, soap residues, hair, and toilet paper that often end up in the drain system can congeal inside the pipes, causing a blockage.
- Foreign objects: Paper towels, tissues, hygiene products, baby wipes, “flushable” wipes, and diapers are sometimes flushed down the toilet. These can easily cause stubborn clogs. Other items like keys, toys, and jewelry are more likely to end up in the drain system by accident but can also cause serious problems.
- Tree roots: Older sewer lines often have small cracks or openings that can attract trees and plants looking for nourishment, filling the pipes with tangled roots that restrict flow and cause clogs.
- Pipe damage: Pipes that are cracked, crushed, or have loose joints can lead to clogs. Cast iron sewer lines often corrode and fail, while clay pipes can become brittle and break apart.
To prevent future drain backups and clogs, never flush anything except waste and toilet paper down the toilet. Add mesh screens or baskets to sink, shower, and tub drains to catch hair and food particles, and instead of rinsing cooking grease and oil down the drain, let it cool and throw it away.

Signs Your Sewer May Be Backing Up
It takes a while for the sewer pipe to fill with wastewater and start overflowing. You can avoid a huge mess if you spot the signs of a problem beforehand. Call Bud Anderson if you notice any of these symptoms of a sewer backup:
- Multiple drains that are clogged simultaneously
- Gurgling or bubbling sounds from the pipes
- Foul orders near your drains
- Noise from one drain as another fixture is used
- Abnormally slow drains
Our team can evaluate your sewer pipes with our video camera inspection system, and we can recommend the best course of action for your needs and budget, from drain cleaning or sewer cleaning to drain repair.
Call (479) 927-2700 or contact us online to schedule a video camera pipe inspection in Northwest Arkansas or Southwest Missouri.
Drain & Sewer Repair in Fayetteville
If you have pipe damage or tree root infiltration, periodic drain cleaning may help keep your drains flowing temporarily, but sewer repair is the best option for a permanent fix. At Bud Anderson, we offer standard and trenchless sewer repair options, and we can help you determine the best choice for your home.
Standard sewer repair involves digging up and replacing the broken section of pipe. In contrast, our trenchless sewer repairs can repair the pipe in place, using innovative pipe lining techniques for less damage to your yard and landscaping.
