An annual pattern almost always means roots rather than debris, because roots regrow at a predictable rate through the growing season. A one-off clog does not repeat on a calendar. The fix is either a regular clearing or sealing the joints they enter through.

The inside of the pipe, foot by foot, with the distance marked so the trouble spot can be located from the surface afterward. You see root hairs, cracks, standing water and any offset joint. That footage is what turns a guess about digging into a specific spot.

Rented machines are built for branch drains, not for a long root-filled lateral, and pushing one through a cracked pipe can hang up the cable or worsen a break. It is also easy to punch a hole through a soft blockage without removing it. A plumber's cutting heads and camera together are what settle the cause.

Let cooking fat cool and put it in the trash instead of the drain. Grease coats the pipe wall and gives roots and paper something to catch on, so the two problems compound. It is the cheapest maintenance there is on an old lateral.
