One of our clients recently experienced some serious water backing up in the plumbing in several units. As it turns out, they were in dire need of a sewer rodding to clean out the grease and debris that will gradually build up and stop water from flowing successfully to the sewers. The bill for the service was almost $2,000!
Rodding the lines from your building out to the street should be done at least on an annual basis. The cost is generally a few hundred dollars. Regular maintenance of your plumbing systems can help your association avoid a major expense (and other potential water related damage) down the road. Need a good plumber?
