Sewer & Drain Services in Akron & Northeast Ohio
Sewer and drain. While these two words seem obvious, it’s not uncommon for a homeowner to have very little understanding of what they are.
Your sewer is the pipeline connecting your home’s drainage system to the city sewer line. While associated with city sewer lines, your home’s sewer line is considered part of the plumbing of your home; thus, it’s your responsibility to maintain it (note: if you live in a rural area, you likely have a septic tank, independent of city sewage, instead of a sewer line.).
Your house drain is the horizontal piping that connects to the sewer. The house drain is one of several components of your home’s entire drainage system. If sewers and drains go for an extended time without professional cleaning, some unwelcome- to put it nicely- results can occur. Blocked drains can regurgitate sewage into your bathtub and sinks.
Superior Drainage is Akron and Northeast Ohio’s leading professional service for sewer and drains services. We prevent these “unwelcome” events from happening to you, and if they do, we take care of them quickly and safely.

We Can Help!Commonly Asked Questions About Sewer & Drain
How do I know if I have a problem with my sewer or drain?
Slow draining down your sink or tub, lingering foul odors around your drains, regular back-ups when flushing the toilet are all signs of potential clogs in your sewer or drainpipes.
What causes a sewer clog?
Over time, build-up can collect in your sewer line. The potential for build-up depends on what and how much you’re flushing or rinsing down your drains. Tree roots can also cause damage or clog in your sewer line. Your toilet is usually the first place you will notice an issue. If sewer backwash is coming into your toilet, you likely have a clog in the sewer.
How often should I be cleaning my sewers and drains?
Regular maintenance is key to avoiding emergency issues, but there isn’t a set formula for knowing how often your sewers and drains need a preventative cleaning. It could be annual or every 2 to 3 years, depending on the size of your family, how often you are home, or how regularly you have company. Rule of thumb: if you can’t remember the last time you had a complete sewer and drain cleaning, you’re probably due.
