Frequently asked questions
What should I do first during a sewer backup in Eugene?
Limit water use, avoid contact with sewage, do not open or enter a sewer or septic system, and note which fixtures are affected.
Can I keep using other drains during a backup?
It is safer to limit water use in the affected part of the property until a provider has inspected the problem, because water used elsewhere can add to a backup.
Does emergency mean someone will arrive at a set time?
No arrival or response time is promised on this page. When you call, ask the provider directly about their availability and what to do while you wait.
Will Sewer Line Repair do the repair itself?
