In Tinley Park, IL, sewer line cleaning is a call local plumbers get often, and the reasons are local. Tinley Park spans a wide mix of housing ages, from established neighborhoods with older clay sewer lines to newer subdivisions. Across all of them, slow drains and main-line backups come down to the same culprits: grease, roots, and scale narrowing the pipe.
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.
Whether it is a single clogged kitchen line or a main sewer that keeps backing up, local plumbers match the method, rodding or hydro jetting, to what the camera finds 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 one fixture, and in Tinley Park the boundary between public main and private lateral decides who handles it.
Tinley Park is a genuinely unusual case. The village owns and maintains its sanitary sewer collection system but does not own a treatment plant, so where your wastewater actually ends up depends on which part of town you live in. The village describes three different arrangements: the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District handles all of Tinley Park that sits in Cook County plus part of the Will County portion, and the remainder of the Will County side goes to the Village of Frankfort or to Illinois American Water.
For a homeowner that matters when a problem turns out to be in the main rather than your lateral, because the entity responsible is not the same across the village. It is worth knowing which side of the Cook and Will County line your address falls on before you start making calls, and worth telling the plumber, since the cleanout and main locations differ between the older and newer parts of Tinley Park.
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.
