Sewer line problems are a plumbing emergency that is best discovered early. Early detection can prevent considerable damage to your home and its foundation, the inconvenience of poor drainage or no drainage at all, and the potential backup of sewer effluent. In addition, sewer leakage can be ongoing for some time without you being aware of it. When a sewer pipe is leaking, effluent can be contaminating ground water supplies, and place the community at risk of serious illness. If you have a leaking sewer pipe, contact Benjamin Franklin Plumbing for sewer line repair of your plumbing in Arlington.
Sewer pipes can deteriorate due to age, and can be damaged by tree roots, landscaping projects, and other causes. In addition, unpleasant odors are potential indicators of a sewer pipe problem. Other common sewer pipe problems include grease, foreign objects, bellied pipe, and collapsed or broken lines, especially in older sewer lines.
Your plumber can provide a video pipe inspection to determine the nature of the problem with a small sewer camera providing a live image. Benjamin Franklin plumbers in Arlington offer the latest technology with hydro jetting for stubborn clogs, and pipe bursting for replacement of the damaged pipe.
Lawn Deformation
Outdoor sewer pipes that are broken or have burst can cause changes in the lawn’s appearance. Depressions or indentations may indicate a burst pipe. Fluid may or may not puddle up on the lawn, and odor may or may not be present.
In addition, lush, richly green grass or landscaping plants are also a sign that a sewer pipe leak may be present. When you notice these signs, especially when drainage problems are existing, contact a plumber in Arlington for a professional inspection and repair of your home’s plumbing in Arlington.
Unpleasant Odors
Problems with a sewage line typically create an unpleasant odor. Persistent odors are often a sign that it’s time to call in a professional plumber for sewer repair. Delaying repair can result in sewer backup and costly damage to the home and its foundation when the issue is in the home. Besides odor, sewer pipes that are located in the wall can cause mold due to effluent leaking in the walls of your home. Contact our plumbers for prompt repair of your home’s plumbing in Arlington.
Poor Drainage and Persistent Clogs
When the drainage only affects a single location, such as a sink, for example, the problem will be in the affected drain. Frequent clogs and/or slow drainage in the entire home often indicate the presence of a sewer pipe problem. Only a plumber can resolve sewer pipe issues, and provide the required repairs to your plumbing in Arlington.
