Cleanout

Toilet backing up, and you don't know where the cleanout is?

Why it happens in East Prospect

In East Prospect the median home was built in 1964 (Census estimates), and about 38% are attached. In attached homes, laterals run close together and cleanouts can be tucked behind a finished wall or under a porch. When the line plugs, the plumber needs that opening to run a cable.

What to try, and when to call us

Look now, while nothing's wrong: check the basement where the main drain leaves the house and the yard near the foundation. If you can't find one, tell the plumber when you call.

Why East Prospect homes see this

The Safe Harbor Dam station, about eight miles away, gets about 46 inches of rain and melted snow a year, and on about 12 days the total tops an inch. About 31% of homes here predate 1940, and older laterals take in water when the ground is soaked.

When to stop and call

If the floor drain gurgles after every storm, the lateral likely has a crack. A camera finds it.

What to Do While You Wait in East Prospect

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.
