My Hummelstown home has old cast iron pipes - should I be concerned?

What causes basement flooding in Hummelstown homes?

Basement flooding in Hummelstown is often tied to the area's clay-heavy soil, which does not drain water away quickly during heavy rain or snowmelt. This puts pressure on foundation walls and can overwhelm floor drains or sump systems. Roto-Rooter's experienced plumbing technicians can clear blocked drains, inspect sewer lines for backups, and help with water damage restoration and cleanup. Roto-Rooter is fully licensed and insured, so you can trust the work is done right.
