Common Causes of Sewer Backups in Denver

Tree Root Intrusion

Tree roots seeking moisture can grow into sewer lines through small cracks, creating blockages

Flushed Items

Non-flushable items like wipes, paper towels, and hygiene products causing blockages

Grease Buildup

Cooking grease and oils that solidify in pipes, narrowing and eventually blocking them

Collapsed or Damaged Pipes

Old or damaged sewer lines that have collapsed, cracked, or separated

Heavy Rainfall

Excessive rain overwhelming municipal sewer systems, causing backups into homes

Bellied Pipes

Sagging or "bellied" pipes that collect waste and eventually become blocked
