Expert Drain Cleaning for Blackwood Homes

Blackwood is a well-established community in Gloucester Township with homes dating back to the 1960s. Many of these homes were built with Orangeburg sewer pipes, a tar-paper material that crushes and collapses over time. When the pipe fails, drains stop working.

The Sewer Kings provide professional drain cleaning throughout Blackwood. We have the tools to clean Orangeburg, clay, and PVC lines safely. Our crew diagnoses the problem before recommending a solution.

Whether you live off Black Horse Pike or along Chews Landing Road, we can be at your door within hours. We handle everything from slow kitchen drains to full sewer line blockages. Visit The Sewer Kings homepage to learn about all our services, or see our drain cleaning services for details on what we offer.

About Blackwood, NJ

Blackwood is a census-designated place within Gloucester Township in Camden County. It sits at the intersection of Black Horse Pike and Chews Landing Road. The area has been a residential hub since the post-war building boom.

Most homes in Blackwood were built between the 1960s and 1980s. Split-levels and bi-levels are the dominant styles. Many of these homes were built with Orangeburg sewer pipes. Orangeburg is a tar-impregnated fiber pipe that was cheap and easy to install. It was never meant to last more than 50 years.

By now, most Orangeburg lines in Blackwood have softened, deformed, or partially collapsed. A collapsed section traps waste and causes backups. Even lines that have not fully collapsed often have oval-shaped cross sections that restrict flow. These pipes cannot be cleaned aggressively because they are too fragile.

The streets near Black Horse Pike and the commercial corridor along Route 42 have some of the highest call volumes in our service area. Grease from nearby restaurants enters the municipal system and backs into residential laterals. Homes on Chews Landing Road also deal with root intrusion from the mature trees that line the street.

For more on the common issues affecting homes in this area, read our article on how often drains should be professionally cleaned.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions About Drain Cleaning in Blackwood

It depends on the condition. Orangeburg that has softened or partially collapsed cannot handle aggressive cleaning. We run a camera first to assess the pipe. If the Orangeburg is still holding its shape, we clean at reduced pressure.
Restaurant kitchens along the commercial corridor discharge grease into the municipal sewer system. During heavy use periods, that grease can back up into nearby residential laterals. Regular cleaning prevents buildup from reaching blockage level.
Most Blackwood homes built between the 1960s and 1980s used Orangeburg for the sewer lateral. A camera inspection confirms the pipe material in minutes. Orangeburg appears dark, oval-shaped, and often has visible deformation on camera.
A collapsed Orangeburg section needs excavation and replacement. We replace the damaged section with PVC pipe that will last decades longer. The camera inspection shows exactly which section has failed so we only dig where necessary.
Every one to two years for homes with Orangeburg or clay pipes. Properties near the commercial corridors along Black Horse Pike and Route 42 may need more frequent cleaning due to grease accumulation from nearby restaurants.
Standard drain cleaning does not require a permit. Blackwood is part of Gloucester Township in Camden County. If excavation or pipe replacement is needed, we handle the permit process with the township.
