Sewer Problems (Sanitary Sewers)

901 W Briarcliff DR

Case Date:
5/26/2019

Sewage is backing up in our basement after today's rain at 901 W Briarcliff Dr, Bloomington IN 47404. We have rotorooter coming out, but in the past roots in the city line in front of the house caused backups. Please check this line as soon as possible to see if it needs roots cut. We've experienced a catastrophic backup due to problems in the city's line before and wish to avoid a recurrence. Thank you very much for your help in this matter.

Sewer Problems (Sanitary Sewers)

2638 E Dekist ST

Case Date:
2/8/2019

Yesterday, during the huge mid-day rainstorm, water came up through the floor drain in our basement at 2638 East Dekist Street. It had a sewage odor and was muddy looking and reached a level of about 4 inches, covering the entire floor and soaking everything. The basement toilet also had dirty water come into it. I called the city utilities hotline and reported the incident twice, speaking to the same person each time. The water receded after a couple hours. We have yet to assess the damage and start to clean up. Last year on 2/11/18 our basement toilet erupted (see case #163027). We had a plumber verify that the city sewer was the source of the issue. We did not claim any damages, yet the city did not reimburse us the cost of the plumbing assessment. We would appreciate someone responding to this current incident.
