Maintenance Tips

You can Help Keep Your Sewer Flowing

  • Always pour Fats, Oils & Grease (FOG) into a coffee can or glass jar instead of down the drain. Otherwise, FOG can build-up in your sewer system and cause back-ups.
  • If you have a sewer easement on your property, keep it exposed and accessible. Feel free to reference our Easement Access Policy PDF file (144K) for more information.
  • Avoid planting trees over your sewer pipe alignment.
  • If you have a backwater valve, have it checked annually to ensure it is in good working order.
  • Call us immediately if you notice any problems with the sewer system or notice sewage flowing out of a manhole
