Sewer Backup Cleared in Homewood, Illinois

A homeowner in Homewood reached out after experiencing a sewer backup in the basement, creating an urgent need to restore drainage and prevent further disruption.
Our technician accessed the sewer line through the basement cleanout and rodded the line to remove the blockage and restore flow. During service, roots were encountered in the line, indicating a likely issue near the main connection. After opening the line, we thoroughly tested the system by running water and confirmed it was draining properly at the time of service.
With flow restored and the immediate backup resolved, the homeowner once again has a functioning sewer line. We also made note of potential underlying issues so future maintenance or inspection can be considered if needed.
