Signs You Have a Sewer Problem

How do you know you need a professional to inspect your SeaTac sewer line? There are a few signs to watch for that let you know there’s a problem you’ll want to explore further.

For example, if you notice your toilet bubbling when you flush it, there’s likely a clog in your sewer line. The same goes for fixtures that suddenly drain more slowly than usual. A repair is probably possible in these situations, but a sewer line replacement could become the only option if you don’t get on the job early enough.

You could also find mold on your walls and ceilings without a clear source. In these situations, there could be leaky pipe behind your drywall or in your attic that’s doing the damage. If you can smell sewage, too, it’s very likely the leak is in your sewer pipe, and it will require immediate attention.

Finally, you could notice a sewage smell in your yard when you have a broken sewer line. This odor usually means there’s a crack in the pipe because these systems are intended to eliminate smells. There’s also the chance a pool of sewage will form in your yard if the break has been present long enough.

Don’t worry about any of these issues, as Hunt’s Services can help. Our technicians have seen it all and can quickly repair or replace your SeaTac sewer line while limiting the damage to your property. Call Hunt’s Services at 253-533-7500 for appointments throughout the Puget Sound area.

Reasons Your Sewer Line is Broken

A few things could break your SeaTac sewer line, and you should be aware of them to address the situation appropriately.

First, the trees in King County cause problems for sewer lines because of their roots. These root systems extend for significant distances under the ground in search of water. Since there’s moisture in sewer pipes, the roots will wrap around them, eventually creating a crack. There isn’t much you can do to prevent this situation, but keeping an eye on your system can help reduce property damage.

Another potential issue you could encounter is related to weather. Pipes can freeze during a cold snap, and if there’s a buildup of debris or water in your sewer line, its expansion could cause it to break or crack. The best way to prevent this problem is to ensure your sewer line is clear from clogs and debris throughout the year.

A clogged sewer drain line can also cause problems in the summer if it gets bad enough. As debris collects inside the pipe, it puts strain on the material. This pressure could crack the line or cause it to break completely.

Old pipes wear down over the years, too, and cast iron and steel sewer lines are prone to corrosion. If your sewer lines are made from either of these materials, investing in a proactive sewer line replacement could save you from significant property damage in the future.
