ALARM SOUNDING IN FRONT OF 311 N. CURRY PIKE
ALARM SOUNDING IN FRONT OF 311 N. CURRY PIKE
Habitually wet and often smelly sidewalk on north side of Cottage Grove, midway between Lincoln to the east and 213 E. Cottage Grove to the west. Leaky sewer line (?)
Main sewer line backup…???
There appears to be sewage flowing from this property gathering in the road/sidewalk at the intersection
sanitary sewer back up.
Sewer water is coming up through my basement floor drain due likely to a blockage somewhere in the sewer pipe line.
It seems like raw sewage as well as toilet paper is coming out of this clean out for 414 s Lincoln street rental property. This seems like the second one of these situations in this Lincoln and University location.
Nearly every year, in early February, the sewer backs up into my basement. The engineer reported that it is caused by large volumes of grease dumped into the sewer after Chinese New Year, then the cold, causing fatbergs to form just beyond the access at the end of the street. My basement is the lowest, so I get hit. In recent years, preventative cleaning has been scheduled–last year it did not back up! I'd like to make sure that happens again, to prevent a fifth annual sewer flood at my house. Thank you!
On December there was a frozen pipe that leaked into the kitchen floor and not into the sewer. Can you please look into this and consider giving me a credit? If you notice my previous bill, it was 103.38. Thanks,
Sewer water seems to be spilling out of this broken clean out
