Pride Plumbing was called out today for a stoppage or possibly a full septic tank. When we arrived, we went inside the trailer, ran a closet auger down through a toilet's flange, but we weren't able to clear the line. We then went underneath the trailer and ran our sewer machine through a cleanout and hit something very hard. We removed the Fernco coupling near where the pipe went into the ground and saw there was a huge compaction. We dug this out and tried to run the sewer machine and camera into the line to see what was blocking it but they both could only make it so far. It was our belief that that the pipe was either broken or crushed. So, we dug up the drain line, added a cleanout, rerouted the drain to the mainline, and tied it back in using new PVC piping and fittings. We left the cleanout high so no one would drive over it or back into it.
