Drains and clogs in Bellevue and Eastside homes

Drain problems in a Bellevue home cluster around four patterns: kitchen drains backed up by grease and dishwasher discharge in the 1.5-inch line, recurring main-line clogs in pre-1980 cast iron and Orangeburg laterals, the cedar-root sewer intrusion that defines Eastside drain service, and homeowner damage from chemical drain cleaners that corrode the very pipes they're meant to clear. This section covers when a hand auger fixes it, when hydro-jetting is the right call, when a sewer camera should run first, and what to keep out of the drain in the first place to avoid the cycle.
