Broken
drain pipes can create havoc for property owners. Sewers back up in
homes due to aging lines, root intrusion, calcification and ground
movement from seismic activity, costing homeowners thousands of
dollars in damage to their homes and landscaping, and thousands more in
increased taxes due to crumbling underground infrastructure of
municipalities.
In
addition to the expense and inconvenience, backed up sewage in the home
creates health risks such as contamination from mold and harmful
bacteria. Blockages also cause sewers to overflow, spewing deadly waste
into our streets, waterways and beaches. City governments pass on these
ever-increasing water clean-up and treatment costs to you – the
consumer. |
