The typical home in the ZIP codes around Littcarr was built in the 1950s. Pipe in a pre-1960 house has had decades to shift. Dips and offset joints collect waste and block more easily.
An occasional hard freeze can crack exposed drain pipe, and heavy rain in the same year can overload the sewer. Backups come from either one. Shared laundry rooms and basement units are the usual entry points in rental buildings. The crew starts there and works outward.
