Water & Sewer

Items like baby wipes, cotton balls and dental floss may be labeled as "flushable" but they are not.

These items don't dissolve like regular toilet paper. They can stay in your pipes, eventually building up and resulting in costly plumbing repairs.

These giant clogs feed off baby wipes, cotton balls, and everything else that is labeled “flushable” but really isn’t. Clogg monsters will back up sewer systems, leaking sewage onto your street, and clog your plumbing costing you hundreds in repairs.

Our crews have reported sightings of clog monsters at least twice every day.

Our crew in Carrollwood found this clog in the sewer system.

The crew worked all day to cut the clog lose from the pipes.

After removing the clog, crews had to wash out the remains from the pipe.

Thanks to these clog fighters, Carrollwood pipes were free of clogs – for the day!
