Kitchen sink won't drain after cooking?

Why it happens in Liberty

The Town of Liberty's flyer on fats, oils and grease says sewer laterals run underground connecting your house to the town line, and that grease poured down sinks or toilets leads to sewage backups.

What to try, and when to call us

Try hot water and a cup plunger with the other basin plugged. If it stays slow, the grease is further down and needs a cable. Next time, wipe pans into the trash first.

What causes it in Liberty

Liberty's water and sewer page says the town has 23 miles of sewer lines, averaging 8 inches across, with seven lift stations to move wastewater. Pumps that move sewage uphill are a weak point when they stop.

What you can do right now

If neighbors are backing up too, call the town at (336) 622-4276. If it's just you, the clog is in your line.

Why Liberty homes see this

About 57% of Liberty households rent, and half the homes were built from 1960 to 1979. A drain line that old often has buildup the last tenant left.

When to stop and call

Report it to the landlord and ask that the line be cleared, not just treated with chemicals.

What to Do While You Wait in Liberty

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.
