Toilet Overflows in Medical Office

Sewer backups seemingly come out of the blue, and nobody is ever really prepared for one. To help prevent a blocked sewer line, never flush items such as

• Cotton balls or Q-tips
• Feminine products
• Baby wipes
• Paper towels
• Cigarette butts
• Dental floss

These things may or may not cause a blockage by themselves, but they can accumulate and block the toilet trap and pipes. Even too much toilet paper at one time can create or add to a blockage and the resulting sewer back-up and damage. It is also helpful to be aware of any outside trees. The roots may grow towards the pipes looking for a source of water.
