Here are some useful tips to keep your New York home sewer system from backing up. Your home's side sewer runs from the house to the mainline sewer in the street (or the septic tank). Maintaining the sewer system is the City's responsibility. Maintaining the side sewer is the owner's responsibility.
Keep roots or other obstructions from blocking your home's side sewer. If you need repairs for a side sewer backup, look under "Westchester County Plumbing, Drains & Sewer Cleaning" in The Yellow Pages. If there is a heavy storm and sewage backs up through sinks or toilets, call the City’s sewer and drainage maintenance staff. City workers will check and remove blockages in the main sewer line Mount Vernon. If the problem is the result of too much storm water in the system, you may have to wait until the storm has subsided to have the backup resolved
