Who Clears a Private Sewer Line in Carrollton?

WARNING SIGNS

How Can I Tell If My Sewer Lateral Is Clogged?

If several drains back up at once, or water comes out of the lowest drain in the house, your sewer lateral is likely clogged. The lateral is the pipe that carries all your home’s waste to the city main.

Signs of a lateral clog:

Toilets, tubs and floor drains back up together.
Sewage comes out of your yard cleanout.
Drains gurgle when you run the washer.
A sewer smell hangs around the yard.

Signs of a single-drain clog:

Only one sink or tub is slow.
Plunging fixes it for a short time.

See our sewer line cleaning service for lateral clogs.

COMMON CAUSES

What Causes Sewer Line Clogs in Carrollton?

Tree roots, grease and wipes cause most sewer line clogs we see in Carrollton. Roots grow into small gaps in older pipes. Grease hardens inside the line. Wipes catch on both and build a blockage.

Tree roots. The city says the owner is responsible for all obstructions in the service line, including roots.
Grease. The City of Carrollton runs a Grease Eradication Program because grease causes many sewer overflows in both public and private lines.
Wipes and paper towels. These do not break down in water.
Pipe sags or offsets. Low spots and shifted joints let waste settle.
Hair and soap. These slow down bathroom drains.

OUR PROCESS

What Happens During a Sewer Line Cleaning?

We open the line at a cleanout, clear the clog, and run a camera to check the pipe. If the camera shows damage, we explain what it means and whether the city may need to see the video.

Call. We ask what drains are backing up.
Access. We find your cleanout or another way into the line.
Clear. We cut roots or jet out grease with the right tool.
Camera check. We record the inside of the pipe.
Test. We run water through the house to confirm it flows.
Next steps. We tell you if the pipe needs repair and who is responsible for that part.

TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT

Why Does a Camera Video Matter in Carrollton?

The City of Carrollton asks residents to provide a video of the lateral when they think there is a defect in the public right-of-way. If the video shows a structural defect there, the city says Public Works will repair it at no cost to the resident. A sewer camera gives you that proof.

Tools we use:

Sewer camera that records the inside of your line.
Locator to mark where a problem is in the yard.
Cable machine with root cutter for roots.
Hydro jetter for grease and sludge.
Hand auger for small sink and tub clogs.

BENEFITS

A fully cleared line, not just a small hole through the clog.
Camera proof of roots, cracks or sags.

LOCAL RULES

Is There a City Side of the Sewer Line in Carrollton?

No. The City of Carrollton says, “There is no such thing as a ‘City side’ on a lateral service line.” The homeowner owns the lateral from the house to past where it ties into the city main. The city maintains the mains in the public right-of-way and public utility easements.

Key points from Carrollton’s Sewer Stoppage Policy:

Private stoppages. “Sewer stoppages on private property are the responsibility of the property owner or tenant.”
Right-of-way defects. If your video shows a structural defect in the right-of-way, the city says Public Works will repair it at no cost to you.
Digging in the right-of-way. Only City Public Works may repair sewer services there. Plumbers may not dig there.
City call fees. The city charges a $75 sewer service call fee during business hours (Monday to Friday, 6:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.) and $150 after hours.
City emergency line. If sewage is in the street, or your neighbors have stoppages at the same time, call the city’s 24-hour number: 972-466-3425.
Grease help. Questions about grease? Call Carrollton Environmental Services at (972) 466-3060.

FAQ

Carrollton Drain Cleaning FAQs

How much does drain cleaning cost in Carrollton?

The cost depends on the drain, the cause and the access point. A main line with roots costs more than a sink clog. We give you the price before any work starts.

Who pays to fix a broken sewer pipe in Carrollton?

If the break is on private property, the owner pays. If a video shows a structural defect in the public right-of-way, the city says it will repair it at no cost to the resident.

Will the City of Carrollton clear my clogged line?

The city says stoppages on private property are the owner’s job. If the city comes out, it charges a service call fee. Call a plumber for clogs in your home’s line.

Can you come to Carrollton on a weekend?

Yes. We are open 24 hours a day, every day. Call (214) 771-9407.
