Sewer Problems (Sanitary Sewers)

919 N Orris DR

Case Date:
6/10/2020

Strong sewage smell in our kitchen, laundry room and bathroom. The city has come out every year to clear the main sewer pipe running under the easement between our house and the neighbors house. IMPORTANT: Last year the city ran a snake and said there were no blockages. The problem persisted and they came back with a remote camera and saw "All kinds of roots creating blockages" from my neighbors tree. Please learn from the mistakes of last year and bring the video equipment first this year...PLEASE!

Sewer Problems (Sanitary Sewers)

My sewer has been backing up in my basement for several weeks. Roto Rooter came out to identify the problem. They found that my line is "party line" and is attached to my neighbor's line. The lines meet in his driveway and my line crosses through his front yard (see photos). Our houses were built in 1962. I know talking to the plumbers that this is illegal. To make it better, my neighbor is deceased (died in November) and the house is a foreclosure. No family is wanting responsibility for the house. We tried to call the bank to see what to do. The driveway and front yard will need to be dug up to move and replace the pipe. Who can I speak to to discuss how to proceed with this and (honestly) who will help pay for it?

I have plumbers at my house now doing extensive digging to resolve a backup in the main sewer line. They believe the blockage is within city jurisdiction. We have had sewage spewing into our shower and the toilet won't flush the last 24 hours

I sent a ureport to you 7-17 before receiving this estimate from roto rooter. It appears they will need to reroute the later to city main sewer and will be cutting the city street as well as backfill per code. Is this something you can help me with?

This is right next to my property and there is a strong smell of sewage coming from it. Now, i know that a gentleman from CBU has been down here multiple times in the last few months. He wenches up something that looks like a pump, works on it, then lowers it back down. What's going on, Vic? If we need a new pump, give us a new pump.

Once again, i do laundry, and hete comes CBU to the sewer pump station. I reported this previously and was told it was routine maintenance. Routine maintenance in the evening into the dark. Now, the gentleman is here on the afternoon of the Sunday after Thanksgiving. Don't try telling me that it's routine maintenance. I have also had to report odor from this pump station. We have owned this property since before sewer was even here. We have been around that pump station a long time. These things didn't start happening until i added my new house to the system. There is also a house with six kids across the street and new building around me. I have been in the construction industry for over 20 years so i am not uneducated as to these systems. I am also aware of the fact that this area is not going to get the attention the East side or Southeast side of town would get. I think Facebook and HT readers would understand that as well. The developer of Union at Crescent might like to know it to. If there is a capacity problem, please fix it.
