These suggestions can save you money too! Most sewer back-ups occur between the house and the Towns cleanout where the property owner is responsible for correcting the problem. Avoiding blockages means avoiding plumbing bills. When the blockage occurs in the Towns sewer main, the Town will correct the problem.
