What Causes Sewer Damage?
Sewer lines, though built to last, aren't immune to the effects of time and the elements.
​
​Several factors can lead to their deterioration and eventual failure, such as:
​
-
Aging infrastructure: Older homes, particularly those constructed before the 1980s, often have sewer lines made of clay or cast iron. While durable, these materials can corrode, crack, or collapse over time, especially when exposed to shifting soil or tree roots.
-
Invasive tree roots: Tree roots constantly search for water and nutrients, and sewer lines can be an appealing source. As roots grow, they can exert immense pressure on pipes, causing cracks and blockages.
-
Ground movement: The earth beneath our feet isn't always stable. Soil settling, erosion, or even seismic activity can put stress on sewer lines, causing them to crack, misalign, or even collapse.
-
Substandard installation and maintenance: Sewer lines that were poorly installed or haven't received regular maintenance are more susceptible to problems. Shoddy workmanship or neglect can create weak points in the system, making it vulnerable to leaks, blockages, and other issues.
​
If you suspect your home's sewer line is showing signs of wear and tear, don't hesitate to contact our team. Our plumbers can thoroughly inspect your system and provide effective, long-lasting solutions tailored to your specific needs.
Is My Sewer Line Damaged?
Your home's sewer line is vital, silently working to remove wastewater from your property. But since it's buried underground, spotting trouble isn't always easy.
​
If you suspect your sewer line may be damaged, pay close attention to these warning signs:
​
-
Persistent backups: If you're dealing with repeated backups in multiple drains or toilets, it may not be a simple clog—your sewer line may be damaged.
-
Sluggish drains: When drains throughout your entire home seem sluggish or slow, it's a strong sign that something isn't right with your sewer line. This could be anything from a partial blockage to a more significant issue, like a collapsed pipe.
-
Unexplained odors: A lingering sewer smell, inside or outside, is a strong indicator of a leak somewhere in the line.
-
Unusually green patches: If a patch of your lawn is suddenly thriving more than the rest, especially near the sewer line, it could be because wastewater from a leak is fertilizing the area.
-
Structural issues: In severe cases, a damaged sewer line can lead to sinkholes or cracks in your foundation due to soil erosion.
​
​If you notice any of these red flags, it's crucial to act quickly. The sooner you address sewer line problems, the less extensive (and expensive) the damage will be.
