What Is a Sewer Line Cleanout and Why Is It Important?

A sewer line cleanout is an access point plumbers use to reach your home’s main sewer line. It matters because it allows camera inspections and high‑pressure cleaning without digging, which speeds diagnosis and helps prevent backups. Cleanouts also make trenchless repairs easier when conditions allow. Schedule inspections every 1–2 years and cleaning every 18–24 months to reduce emergencies. Homeowners are responsible for sewer line maintenance. We serve homes in Peru, IN and nearby areas like Logansport and Wabash.
