Unblocking Mission Bay | Drain

Many properties in Mission Bay were built in the mid-20th century. This means your lateral drains (the pipes connecting your house to the main city sewer) are likely made of earthenware clay . Over decades, these joints loosen, tree roots invade, and the pipes crack.

If your blockage seems to come and go, or if your toilet flushes fine in the morning but backs up in the afternoon, the public sewer main might be surcharging due to the tide. Mission Bay’s low-lying geography means high tides push against the council mains. If your private line has a belly (a sag in the pipe), the tide pushes debris into your home. drain unblocking mission bay
