• Blockage:
  Grease buildup, tree roots, sludge or an obtrusive object prohibiting proper flow and cleaning of the line.
• Corrosion:
  Damage that has caused deterioration and breakage, causing collapses in the line and restricting flow.
• Bellied pipe:
  A section of the pipe has sunk due to ground or soil conditions, collections of paper and waste.
• Leaking joints:
