What are the Signs of a Sewer Line Repair?

A sewer line replacement or repair can be costly. Noticing the indicators of impending trouble and having the solution implemented in a timely fashion goes a long way to prevent extensive issues that could impact your home, health, and even finances. Here are warning signs to watch out for:

• Slow Draining Water: If multiple drains in your home or office are unusually slow, you could be dealing with a blockage deep in your plumbing. With your sewer line clogged, it is only a matter of days before your home suffers a nasty sewage backup.
• Sewage Backup: When sewage backs up when you run your washing machine or flush the toilet, chances are a sewer clog is pushing wastewater up your drains.
• Wet/Lush Spots on the Lawn: If you notice any wet spots on your yard (and there has not been any rain recently) or a noticeably lush and vibrant section of greenery, this can indicate a sewer line leak.
• Bad Smells: When persistent sewer odor infiltrates your home, it can be anything from clogged P-trap, blocked drain, vent pipe clogs, and broken/loose toilet seal. A professional plumber will diagnose the issue and decide between sewer line cleaning and other possible remedies.
• Foundation Cracks: Cracks in the foundation are often attributable to wastewater from a cracked sewer drain. Do not wait until the cracks worsen to schedule an appointment with a trusted plumbing contractor.

Who is Responsible for a Broken Sewer Line?

The city and homeowners are responsible for different parts of the sewer line. The sections include:

• Sewer Main: It transports the wastewater from many properties to the municipal wastewater treatment facility.
• Sewer Lateral: The pipe extends from the sewer main to your property.

Your city owns and takes care of the sewer main line. And because the sewer lateral serves only one building, its responsibility lies on the property owner.

Do you need sewer line replacement or repair but don’t know where to begin? Call our team—we will help you determine what part you are responsible for and quickly get things back to normal.
