Signs your sewer line needs repaired

Strange Odors

If you notice a foul odor coming from your plumbing system, contact a technician for immediate service. After you flush waste or dispose of food with the garbage disposal, your pipes should no longer have a smell. If they do, they may need to be flushed or they could have a break.

Slow Draining

When one or more fixtures in your home or business have a slow drain, it may be due to a broken sewer line. A tree may have infiltrated your pipe, or you may simply have a crack that needs a minor repair. Contact our team to receive dependable sewer line repair and inspection services. Our team will diagnose the source of the issue and fix the slow drains in your house.

Green Spots on Lawn

Do you have a completely brown lawn except for one single area? A random green spot is likely caused by a leak or crack in your pipes where water can escape and fertilize your lawn. If a damaged pipe is not fixed, toxins may build and impact the quality of your soil or your health.

Saturated Lawn

A swampy lawn or driveway is a by-product of a broken sewage line that has saturated your yard or driveway. Along with an incredibly strong sewage odor, bugs, and pests, this accumulation of water may lead to a sinkhole on your property. Yikes! Be sure to get in touch with a plumber to solve this problem right away.

Blockages or Clogs

Backed-up lines that only happen in one area of your home could be attributed to a faulting plumbing system. If you’ve tried multiple methods to clear the backup, contact a certified plumber to check if your water pipe is broken.

6 common ways sewer lines get damaged

Ever wonder why sewer and water lines sometimes fail? There are a few common reasons pipes become damaged. Understanding them can help you catch issues early and protect your home.

1. Freezing

When temperatures drop below 32 degrees, water in your pipes can freeze and expand, causing cracks or bursts. Running a small trickle of water during freezing weather helps prevent pressure from building up and damaging your plumbing.

2. Tree Root Growth

Pipes underground contain water, which can attract tree roots. Roots can grow into your pipes, causing cracks, blockages, and slow drains. If you notice multiple clogs or backups in your home, roots may be the culprit. We remove excess tree roots and repair damage to keep your pipes flowing freely.

3. Pipe Deterioration

Over time, pipes naturally wear down. Older homes are more likely to have deteriorated pipes, while newer homes with copper or plastic plumbing can last up to 70 years. Even with durable materials, regular inspections and maintenance help prevent leaks and unexpected breaks.

4. Soil Movement

Shifting soil from nearby construction or natural settling can stress underground pipes and even cause them to burst. While you can’t control development around your property, our technicians provide sewer and water line repair and inspections to protect your home from damage caused by soil movement.

5. High Water Pressure

Water pressure that is too high can damage pipes and lead to leaks or bursts. Standard residential water pressure is around 40 to 45 psi. Anything over 60 psi puts your plumbing system at risk.

High or fluctuating pressure can be caused by:

  • Leaks in your plumbing

  • Clogs or blockages

  • Trapped air in the pipes

  • Changes in the municipal water supply

  • Water usage by neighbors

  • Faulty appliances, like fridge water dispensers

If your water pressure seems unusual, contact your water company. They can help determine if the issue is related to the municipal supply or your home plumbing.

6. Clogs

When your plumbing has a clog, it will impact the water flow and may even cause excess water pressure to burst your pipes.

Plumbing can have clogs for a variety of reasons but these are the most common:

  • Eggshells

  • Fibrous food

  • Non-food items

  • Paper products

  • Grease and oil

Drains can get clogged and burst for a million reasons. Be mindful of what you send down the drains and contact a certified plumber if you suspect you have a clog.
