The most common causes of stubborn clogs in drains are built-up debris, grease, hair, soap scum, and mineral deposits. To effectively remove them during the drain cleaning process, plumbers typically use methods such as snaking the drain with an auger, using a drain snake or drain cleaning tool, hydro jetting to blast away the clog with high-pressure water, or using chemical drain cleaners as a last resort.

To prevent future sewer line damage after the repair is completed, consider the following measures:<br /><br />1. Avoid flushing non-biodegradable items down the toilet.<br />2. Do not pour grease or oil down the drains.<br />3. Regularly inspect and maintain your sewer lines.<br />4. Be cautious when planting trees near sewer lines to prevent root intrusion.<br />5. Consider installing a backwater valve to prevent sewage backup.<br />6. Avoid using chemical drain cleaners that can corrode pipes.<br />7. Properly dispose of household chemicals to prevent damage to the sewer system.

One advantage of installing an overhead sewer system in your home is that it can help prevent basement flooding by providing a higher level of protection against sewer backups.
