Common Sewer Issues Reported by Troy, OH Homeowners

Troy, OH has a mix of historic neighborhoods, aging infrastructure, and maturing tree lines — all of which contribute to some of the area’s most common sewer and drain issues. At CPR – Complete Pipe Repair, we’ve helped dozens of Troy homeowners restore their plumbing systems quickly and cleanly using trenchless technology.

Here are some of the most frequently reported sewer line and drain issues from residents.

Frequent Basement Drain Backups

Many older homes in Troy experience occasional flooding or sewer backups through basement floor drains. This is often caused by clogs, root intrusion, or old cast iron pipes that have started to corrode or shift.

We often recommend video pipe inspection to locate the source of the problem before recommending a solution like hydrojet drain cleaning or trenchless repair.

Tree Roots in Sewer Lines

Troy’s tree-lined streets are beautiful, but are also a common cause of broken sewer pipes. Roots frequently grow into joints and cracks, especially in older clay lines. This can lead to slow drains, foul odors, or total system failure.

Our CIPP lining service is a no-dig solution that restores the pipe and protects it from future root intrusion.

Aging or Collapsed Pipes

Homes built before the 1980s may still rely on outdated piping at risk of cracking, shifting, or full collapse. Some Troy residents don’t realize there’s a problem until their yard is soggy or their toilets gurgle. We can inspect and restore these lines without digging up landscaping or driveways.

If damage is found, our sewer line repair services offer a fast and lasting fix.
