Toilet clogged and the house is only a few years old?
Why it happens in Lyons
The typical Lyons home dates to 2000, by Census estimates, with about 49% built in 2000 or later and about 82% detached. Newer PVC drains don't scale up or crack easily, so a clog in a newer Lyons house is usually wipes, paper, grease or a kid's toy.
What to try, and when to call us
A few tries with a flange plunger is fine. If water rises or a second drain gurgles, stop and call for a snake.

Older house near downtown and roots in the line?
What causes it in Lyons
About 16% of Lyons homes went up before 1940. Those older houses can have clay or cast iron laterals, and trees along the old streets send roots into the joints.
What you can do right now
If you're clearing the same clog every few months, ask for a root cutting and a camera inspection.

Sewer bill going up, and the toilet keeps running?
Why Lyons homes see this
The Town of Lyons runs its own wastewater plant, and its water and sewer rate study raised sewer rates by more than water rates to cover sewer costs. A toilet that runs after a partial clog costs more here than it used to.
When to stop and call
Have the clog cleared and the flapper checked so you're not paying for water that just runs down the drain.
