What causes sewer backups in Edmonton?
EPCOR lists fats, oils and grease, non-flushable wipes and paper towels, tree roots growing into sewer pipes, lines sagging with age, and collapsed or broken pipes. PVC resists roots better than clay tile or concrete.

When should a drain line be scoped with a camera?
When a clog keeps coming back: a camera shows whether roots, a sag or a break are the cause before anyone digs. An Edmonton plumber lists $200–$400 for a video inspection.
