Raw sewage from cleanout all over between sidewalk and street. This has happened sporadically for years, but several times in the last month.
Raw sewage from cleanout all over between sidewalk and street. This has happened sporadically for years, but several times in the last month.
Drain water and sewage water is backing up from the city lines up and out of the basement drains.
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 (?)
On the night of 3/24 we experienced a backup of sewage into the entire walkout basement level of our house. I don't know yet if the issue is on our property or begins with the city sewer lines but I felt it should be report as it was a huge backup resulting in 1-3 inches of water filling our entire basement which is now being gutted.
Cottage Grove between Lincoln and Washington on the north side of the street, starting at the alley, sewage spears to be flowing east downhill from perhaps a leak. Bad smell.
ALARM SOUNDING IN FRONT OF 311 N. CURRY PIKE
I have had sewage come up through our bath on our basement level 3 times in the past 7 months. It’s quite disgusting, and I can share pictures of this is you would like to see what this looks like. I have had HFI run a camera through all of my drains and I watched the video as they were doing this. There were no blockages at all; all the pipes were clear. The camera followed the drains all the way to the city sewer (5999 on the map). I have also spoken to a neighbor two doors down at 3212 S Abby Lane who has had the same thing occur multiple times. She has contacted the City too and they found a grease blockage which apparently was cleared. However, she said that there was back into her basement two weeks after that. After spending thousands with HFI and other plumbers, and out of frustration, she has purchased her own drain camera and equipment to clear out the drain should that occur again. Since this seems to be a recurring problem on the Abby Lane side of Bentley Court, here is my question: Is it possible to have the sewer/drain system that services Bentley Court checked for blockages or waste build-up? When last was this done? What drain systems from other neighborhoods feed into this system? The sewage has to come from somewhere. We really want to get to the bottom of this. Would you please help me? I cannot have my family live on the basement level when this type of thing keeps occurring. Thanks so much and I look forward to hearing from you.
Potholes/pavement disintegrating on Browning Lane at both the corners of Allendale and Browning Place. At Allendale it is remaining damage from the fiber optic digging where they had to go into the street and it and is filled with mud and water most of the time. Right now it is dry(ish!). Browning Place has been a longer term erosion. Thank you!!!
