Common Causes of Sewer Backup

Common Causes of Sewer Backup

We have been providing sewer damage services in Edmonton for years and can note that the most common causes of backup problems are:

  • Tree roots. Roots can grow into sewer pipes, causing blockages and damage.
  • Clogs. The buildup of grease, hair, paper products, or other debris in pipes.
  • Municipal sewer issue. Problems with the main sewer lines affect homes and commercial buildings.
  • Pipes buildup. Various minerals that build up over time can narrow the pipes, leading to backup problems.
  • Pipe bellies. The cause of clogs can be sagging sections of pipes that collect debris and waste.
  • Improper disposal of items. Flushing non-biodegradable materials down toilets or sinks.
  • Broken pipes. This problem can often be caused by age, ground shifting, or construction work.
  • Heavy rainfall or flooding. These can overwhelm the sewer system’s capacity.
  • Old sewer systems. Ageing infrastructure is more prone to failure.

Each of these factors may lead to sewer backup in Edmonton. However, if you act without delay, sewer repair can be quick. Additionally, an early indication of sewage backup allows you to avoid more expensive sewer clearing and fixing.

Our Comprehensive Sewer Backup Cleanup Process

Our Comprehensive Sewer Backup Cleanup Process

Emergency Response & Assessment

Immediate Response (Within 60 Minutes): Our certified technicians arrive with full protective equipment and begin with a comprehensive site assessment. We identify the contamination level, determine the backup source, and create a detailed action plan tailored to your specific situation.

Sewage Extraction & Water Removal

Advanced Extraction Technology: Using industrial-grade submersible pumps and powerful truck-mounted extraction units, we rapidly remove all sewage, contaminated water, and debris. Our equipment can handle thousands of gallons per hour, minimizing exposure time and preventing further property damage.

Content Assessment & Inventory

Salvage Evaluation: Our restoration specialists carefully assess all affected belongings, furniture, and materials. We document everything for insurance purposes, separate salvageable items for specialized cleaning, and safely dispose of contaminated materials that cannot be restored.

Deep Cleaning & Sanitization

Multi-Stage Decontamination Process

  • Stage 1: Physical removal of all visible contamination and debris
  • Stage 2: Application of EPA-approved antimicrobial solutions to eliminate bacteria, viruses, and pathogens
  • Stage 3: HEPA air filtration to remove airborne contaminants
  • Stage 4: Final sanitization with hospital-grade disinfectants

Structural Drying & Moisture Control

Professional Drying Systems: we deploy commercial air movers, dehumidifiers, and moisture monitoring equipment to ensure complete drying of all affected areas. Our technicians monitor moisture levels daily until your property returns to normal humidity levels, preventing mold growth and secondary damage.

Final Restoration & Reconstruction

Complete Property Restoration: from flooring replacement to drywall reconstruction, our skilled craftsmen restore your property to pre-loss condition. We handle everything from minor repairs to complete basement renovations, ensuring seamless integration with existing structures.

Edmonton-Specific Sewer Backup Challenges & Solutions

Edmonton-Specific Sewer Backup Challenges & Solutions

Understanding Edmonton’s Unique Challenges

Clay Soil Impact: Edmonton’s expansive clay soil shifts and cracks sewer pipes during wet/dry cycles. Our team provides specialized solutions for these clay-related pipe issues that are common throughout the city.

Extreme Weather Challenges

  • Winter freezing: Harsh Edmonton winters freeze sewer lines, especially in older neighborhoods like Glenora and Westmount
  • Spring runoff: Rapid snowmelt overwhelms systems, particularly affecting areas near Mill Creek and the North Saskatchewan River
  • Heavy rainfall: Combined sewer systems can backup during significant precipitation events

Area-Specific Issues

Older Communities (Old Strathcona, Garneau, Windsor Park) Aging pipes (50-80 years old) are prone to tree root infiltration from mature elms and poplars, deterioration, and inadequate capacity.
Newer Developments (Summerside, Keswick, Rosenthal) Common issues include construction debris in lines and system overload during peak usage periods.

Local Expertise

Our team works with EPCOR Drainage Services and quickly identifies whether backups originate from private property lines or city main lines. We ensure all work meets City of Edmonton building codes and Alberta Health Services contamination requirements.
