If you have some experience dealing with minor plumbing problems, you may know how to unclog a drain or a toilet. While there are times when simply using a plunger may work on either, you may find you have a deeper issue or one that involves the main sewer line rather than one individual drain line, and that calls for experience. While a single drain can represent a sewer line problem, more than one is indicative of a main sewer line issue.
Often, you can see visual signs of a sewer line problem, such as:
Slow drainage or water backing up into one or more of your sinks, shower, or bathtub.
A slow flushing toilet or backup when flushing that is not resolved by a plunger.
Extra lush spots in your lawn or garden or an excess amount of pooling water that is not normal.
Seeing mold or mildew growing under the sink, just inside of the drain, or around the edges of the sink.
An increase in insects such as sewer flies, palmetto bugs, or cockroaches.
One or more visible cracks in your home's foundation.
Not all indications of a sewer problem are visual. For example, you may sense a smell of sewage backing up in one or more drains of your home. Or you may hear an abnormal gurgling sound from the kitchen sink, the shower, or the tub.
Common Causes of Broken Sewer Lines
While you likely are familiar with some of the causes of sewer line breakage, other causes may surprise you. They include:
Improper installation
Old, corrosive pipes
Clogged or cracked pipes
A completely fractured pipe
Tree roots
Soil movement, which is often caused by overwatering or flooding due to extensive rainfall
In addition to plumbing problems, broken sewer lines can cause other extensive damage to property including water damage to your walls and foundation, countertops, cabinetry, flooring, and more. Quick attention to any sewer line problem can spare those damages and your pocketbook!
