Yes, a plumber is the best person to determine where and why a blockage is occurring. Blockages typically occur somewhere in the service line running from the home to the street and can be dealt with by a plumber. If it is a recurring problem there may be more than just a blockage in the service line and we suggest you contact us at 780.987.3342 to arrange for a video inspection of the service line to your home. The cost for this is about $300 and the homeowner pays for this service, however if the video shows a broken pipe on Public Property the Town of Devon will reimburse the cost for the video and repair the line. Should the video show a broken pipe on your property, you as the homeowner will be responsible to have it repaired at your cost.
Yes, homeowners are responsible for looking after their waste carts. If your cart is missing please call the Town of Devon at 780.987.8300 as your waste cart has a specific number linked to your address, this may help to locate it.
