Sewage Removal & Cleanup Services in Long Beach, California

Possible Causes of Sewage Backups and Contamination

One common cause of sewage backups in properties is aging or clogged sewer lines. Over time, tree roots can invade underground pipes, causing blockages and leaks that lead to wastewater flooding. Heavy rainfall can also overwhelm the municipal sewer system, resulting in overflows that impact local homes and businesses. Additionally, improper disposal of waste, such as flushing inappropriate items down toilets, can contribute to blockages and backups within the plumbing system.

Faulty or damaged plumbing fixtures and an overwhelmed septic system may also be responsible for sewage spills. In some cases, pipe deterioration due to corrosion or ground shifting can create leaks and allow raw sewage to escape into living spaces or yards. Whatever the cause, sewage intrusion creates hazardous conditions that require immediate professional attention to protect your health and property.
