Suffolk County’s older homes often have aging pipes that accumulate buildup over decades. Tree roots are particularly problematic here, working their way into sewer lines through joints and causing recurring blockages.
Kitchen drains clog from grease, food particles, and soap scum building up on pipe walls. Bathroom drains typically block from hair, toothpaste, and personal care products. Many Mastic homes also deal with seasonal issues like leaves and debris.
Hard water common in Long Island creates mineral deposits that narrow pipes over time. Combined with heavy usage and older plumbing systems, this creates the perfect conditions for frequent clogs without proper maintenance.
