Expert Sewer Pipe Repair and Replacement Services
If you’re like most local residents, you don’t think much about your home’s sewer lines. These large pipes are responsible for carrying wastewater from toilets, sinks, showers, tubs, and other drains away from your home and into Mesquite’s main sewer system for water treatment and reclamation.
When things are flowing smoothly, you won’t even notice that they are there, as they run well underneath your yard and your home’s foundation.
When a problem does arise with a sewer pipe, though, it can have major ramifications throughout your home and yard. Like any other pipes, sewer lines can get clogged, potentially leading to backups in drains throughout the house. An even larger issue with sewer pipes is leakage.
A leak in a pipe inside your home can cause water damage, to be sure, but the damage will come from clean water. Leaks in sewer lines, on the other hand, can spill wastewater and raw sewage onto your property, exacerbating the damage even more, as the cleanup will require additional sanitization.
These are a few of the most common signs that you may be experiencing sewer troubles:
- Frequent or multiple simultaneous backups in drains
- Smell of mold, mildew, or sewage in your house or yard
- Increased pest activity
- Soggy patches or standing water in yard
- Cracks in foundation or basement walls or floors
Don’t delay in calling your plumber to investigate suspected sewer line issues. The longer you wait, the worse the problem is likely to become, so fast action is in your best interest. Your plumber can inspect your sewer lines to identify any issues, and it is far better to have an inspection and find nothing than it is to ignore a potentially catastrophic problem.
In cases of minor damage, like clogs or small leaks, your plumber will likely be able to complete the sewer pipe repair with trenchless pipe relining methods, preserving your landscaping. More extensive damage, though, like tree root punctures or crumbled pipes, may require digging a trench to allow for sewer pipe replacement. Your plumber can let you know what to expect once they have completed their initial inspection.
