In Matteson, IL, sewer line cleaning is a call local plumbers get often, and the reasons are local. Matteson sits right next to Richton Park, and its homes share the same drain and sewer challenges. Many were built in the mid-century suburban boom on clay and cast iron sewer lines that are now decades old, which is exactly the age where tree roots, grease, and scale start to cause repeat backups.
The main sewer line carries waste from every drain in the house to the city sewer or septic system. Over the years it collects grease, scale, and tree roots, especially in older Richton Park homes with clay pipe, until the line narrows and the whole house starts to back up.
Local plumbers serving Matteson handle hydro jetting, drain cleaning, sewer line clearing, and emergency drain work, with a sewer camera inspection first so the fix matches what is actually in the line.
A sewer camera shows roots, grease, cracks, offsets, and bellies in the line in real time. It confirms whether the line can be cleaned with jetting or whether a section needs repair.

Main line cleaning is a different job from clearing a single fixture, and in Matteson the ownership line between public main and private lateral decides who handles it.
Matteson runs its own water and sanitary sewer system through its Public Works department, and the village has a specific request for residents dealing with a backup: contact Public Works before you call a plumber. They will check the village main first to confirm it is clear.
That one step matters financially. If the main is blocked, it is the village's work to clear. If the main is clear, the problem is on your side of the connection and a plumber is the right call. Knowing which side of the line the clog is on before anyone starts rodding is the difference between a village work order and a bill you pay.
On a main line, most plumbers start with a cable machine to cut an opening and restore flow, then recommend a camera to see why it closed up. If roots are the cause, cleaning is maintenance rather than a one-time fix, and lines with a known root problem often get put on a recurring interval instead of waiting for the next backup.

Answers
When more than one drain is affected at the same time, or a lower fixture like a basement drain backs up, the main line is the likely cause rather than a single clog.
