Seattle Sewer Line Repair & Replacement

WHAT IS SEWER REPAIR?

Sewer pipes serve a single goal, to ensure that all the wastewater from the house's drainage system is drained away from home and into the main sewer line of your living area. Damage and problems with these pipes can lead to issues like mold accumulation, foul odors, slow drainage, cracks in your home's foundation, etc.

These are issues that you cannot ignore as they can directly impact the quality of your living and are costly to repair if significant damages occur.
It's important that as soon as you start experiencing any signs of sewer line damage, you need to contact a professional sewer repair service to inspect and repair the problem immediately.

SEWER DRAIN CLEANING

Home and building owners know that sewer lines and their health is important. However, it's quite easy to forget about the sewage system unless there is a clog or a drainage issue. Sewage backups are messy, and any major damage in the sewage system can cost you a lot of money to repair. Sewer line replacement is even costlier.

There is no predicting when a sewer line will get clogged, but if you keep an eye out for the warning signs, you'll be able to stop the blockage in time. Once you notice any of the following signs - it's time to call a sewer repair and cleaning service to clear out your sewage system:

  • Water backing up from toilets and drains
  • Percolation from the toilet when washing machine water is drained

  • Slow to drain sinks and bathtubs

It is best to call a sewer repair and cleaning service to inspect the cause of the blockage and determine how to clean it. Your sewer line may also need some repairs afterward, which we can take care of.

WATER MAIN INSTALLATION

In many ways, the main water line is the lifeline of your house or building, supplying water from the main supply to the smaller pipes in your property. Any damage to this main line can wreak havoc on your property in the form of flooding and creating swampy conditions in your yard.

Water main lines are tricky and need time and specialized equipment to work with. So whether it is water main line installation, repairs, or maintenance, you will need to call a professional to take care of it.

SIGNS YOU SHOULD HIRE A PROFESSIONAL SEWER REPAIR SERVICE

  1. Backing up of your house drains: If all of your pipes, such as those in the toilet, sink, and shower spit up water at once.
  2. Mold. If your sewer line is leaking, the break can cause mold to develop in your walls.
  3. Sewer Gas Odor. Foul order is a definite tell-tale sign of a crack in your sewage system somewhere. Sewers are airtight. Unless there is a crack in your lines, you should never be able to smell sewer odor in your house.
  4. Lush Green Patches Yard. Have you noticed any extra green and lush patches in your yard? Chances are, the sewer line below that area has a crack.
  5. Lawn indents and Under Pavers. A damaged sewer line constantly keeps the ground saturated and wet, which can cause an indentation in your yard or lawn and under pavers. Soil dissipation is typical in areas where sewer lines are cracked.
  6. Pooling of Septic Waste in Yar. You will see a pool of septic wastewater in your yard.
  7. Sinkholes, Foundation Cracks, and Settlements. Sewer damage can be devastating for your property's foundation. If you start seeing cracks in your foundation and other kinds of damage like sinkholes, there is a chance your sewer line is damaged.
  8. Rodent Issues. Rodents can cause sewer line damage and also indicate prior damage.
  9. Insects.Cockroaches, sewer flies, and palmetto bugs can easily get into your home from cracks in the sewer line.
  10. Slow Drainage. This is one you can easily ignore, but it's best to pay attention to the speed of drainage in your building. What starts as sluggish drainage slowly turns into a sewage backup.
  11. Gurgling in Toilets. If your sewer line has issues and isn’t draining wastewater properly, your toilet will start backing up.
  12. Sinking in Concrete Slabs. Have you been noticing any concrete sinking around the garage, sidewalks or your driveway? Chances are that the sewer line underneath these areas is damaged. A leak can saturate the soil below the concrete slabs and make the foundation ground go soft.

WHAT CAUSES SEWER DAMAGE?

There are different factors that can cause damage to your plumbing system. Many times, you may not be able to notice the cause of the sewer damage, but you should get hints from your drainage. However, it is advised that you acknowledge the things that can create the damage.

Some of the most common causes of sewage damage are:

Tree Roots

TREE ROOTS

Tree roots are one of the most common reasons. Since tree roots follow the flow of the water, and the pipe carries water and waste, it is expected that they could create issues for your plumbing system at some point.

Normal Wear-And-Tear

PHYSICAL OBSTRUCTIONS

Clogs in the drainage are quite common, and they occur when there is a lot of debris or foreign objects stuck in the pipes. That is why you should stick to flushing only water and toilet paper.

Rodents

RODENTS

Rodents are attracted to the smell of waste and dampness that comes from the sewage. That is why it is very common to be faced with rodents stuck in your sewage pipes. They can also damage the system, so you have to be very careful with the maintenance of your plumbing.

Physical Obstructions

Corroded And Worn-out Pipes

Corrosion is bound to happen with time, especially after a long time of using the same sewage system. When the pipes are corroded or just worn out, they will create damage to your drainage, so a replacement is due.
