There are some common signs of sewer pipe issues, such as foul odors or overflowing backups from one or more toilets or drains, that most people easily recognize. Other signs to watch for include:
Standing water or slow-moving water in one or more sinks, the shower, or the tub.
Slow-filling toilets after flushing.
Gurgling or bubbling from a drain or toilet.
Mold or algae growth.
Unusual pest or insect infestation.
Areas of standing water in the lawn, garden, or particularly lush areas.
Any one of these symptoms is a reason to call a sewer line plumber, and more than one sign suggests a greater sense of urgency.
Problems that May Indicate a Need for Sewer Line Repair or Replacement
Depending upon the age of your home and the sewer pipe materials used, you may start to see signs of general wear and tear after 25 years, especially with PVC. However, there are also various issues that can cause problems, such as sewer line repair or sewer line replacement being needed even sooner. For example:
If trees are planted close to the sewer line, their roots may grow into the line or even strangle it.
Variations in temperature, such as those we sometimes see from winter to summer in Cleveland, can affect the soil and ground around the sewer lines, causing it to shift and sometimes crack or break those lines.
Pouring grease and oil down the kitchen sink or flushing inappropriate items such as wet wipes or feminine products down the toilet will often cause clogging, which, if not cleared quickly, can result in a large issue.
