Frequently Asked Questions About Floor Drain Cleaning
Why is water coming up out of my basement floor drain?
When fixtures on upper floors are used and water emerges from the basement floor drain, you have a main sewer line blockage downstream.
Why does my floor drain smell like sewage?
The water in the floor drain's P-trap has likely evaporated. Pouring a gallon of water down the drain usually restores the barrier.
