Whose line

Sewer backing up, the town's main or your tap?

Why it happens in Pierce

The Town of Pierce says its sewer system is an estimated 10,000 linear feet of line connecting individual sewer taps to a main line. The town posted that it would be jetting the sewer the first week of June 2025. For a sewer backup outside office hours, the town lists (970) 834-2851.

What to try, and when to call us

If the whole block is affected, call the town. If it's only your house, the clog is between your drains and the main, and a plumber clears it.

What causes it in Pierce

About 16% of Pierce homes are mobile homes, and the Nunn 7 NNE station averages about 183 nights a year at or below freezing. A short drain under a mobile home that sags and holds water can freeze, and a small trap clogs fast with grease.

What you can do right now

Keep the skirting closed in winter. Don't pour boiling water into a frozen PVC drain. A plumber can clear it and re-hang a sagging line.

Why Pierce homes see this

Census estimates put the median Pierce home at 1990, with about 36% built in 2000 or later and about 82% detached. Newer drains clog from what goes in them: wipes, paper towels and grease.

When to stop and call

The town fee schedule lists a $48.60 monthly sewer, trash and drainage fee with the 2025 increase. Keeping wipes in the trash protects your line and the town's.

What to Do While You Wait in Pierce

Skip the chemical drain cleaner. It can splash back and it can't clear a main line.

Stop running water if more than one drain is backing up.
Don't pour chemical cleaner into standing water. It can splash back when the plumber opens the line.
If you know where the cleanout is, clear the area around it.
Keep children and pets away from dirty water.
