Mud in pipe, slab foundation, is this generally covered by insurance
I found a post from June 2008 by LOGICALDIANN46 which is very similar to a problem my husband and I discovered this weekend. The washing machine drain backed up and overflowed, flooding the laundry room and kitchen; the drains from the sink and dishwasher backed up and overflowed into the garage. My husband rented a snake and within a few feet he hit a blockage. When he pulled it out, the end was covered in thick Oklahoma clay mud. We have lived here three years and have always had water pressure issues. We suspect the very mature Silverleaf Maple in the front yard, planted right next to the city main. If this proves to be collapsed or leaking lines due to the tree, is this generally covered by insurance? Also, we have a plumbing company coming out tomorrow to snake the line. Is this what we should do at this point? Any advice would be appreciated!
