- A good working condition sewer system is the backbone of a well-maintained property, capable of holding up years and even decades of use. However, ignoring proper maintenance and misuse can lead to plumbing’s shortened lifespan. Simply put, how you use it can either sustain or undermine your sewer system’s efficiency and durability. Let’s explore the signs that you may have a compromised sewer line and how sewer relining can help extend its lifespan.
Red flags of a troubled sewer system
- 1. Frequent toilet blockages and backups
- If your toilet is persistently backing up and despite numerous times of plunging and emergency calls to a plumber it is still unable to let the water pass through freely, that means there is a blockage somewhere down the line that needs to be cleared and inspected right away. In most cases, plungers can do their job if it’s just a normal buildup of things that regularly get flushed down the drain, soap scum, dirt, and hair. However, if it’s going on for a while and on an increased occasion, it is likely that a massive clog, or worse, tree roots is causing the problem.
- If this is the situation you are encountering, call the sewer pipe relining in Sydney professionals without any hesitation now. We can further inspect the line from your toilet down to the sewer line to locate problem-causing sections of your pipe. Where relining is necessary, in cases of tree root intrusions, our team can do this with precision and a high rate of success.
- 2. Drainage Woes
- We’ve found blocked drainage to be the most common issue found in our client’s property. Blocked drains can lead to water backup, which may weaken foundations, damage walls, or flooring. So, if you notice all drains in your property refuse to empty, even if it’s just on random occasions, it’s your sign to call the sewer relining contractors or the drain pipe relining specialist. Unfortunately, if not treated properly, this problem can easily escalate into significant property-wide issues that can pretty much make a hole in your wallet.
- Our team can give you expert advice to prevent further damage that will save you thousands on repair costs and recommend pipe relining if we see it’s the most efficient option to completely address the issue.
- 3. Flooding During Baths
- Think your home is flood-proof? Flooding can happen anytime, to anyone’s home, affecting common areas as well as those you least expect it will. When flooding is taking place in the bathroom, you could be facing a problem caused by an overwhelmed or clogged drainage or sewer system. So, never turn a blind eye to this problem. As soon as you notice the water is rising even just to a bare minimum every time you bathe, call the experts in drain relining right away. This sign suggests sewer line issues affecting drainage. If this problem is allowed to go on, will place your plumbing at risk for complete repair.
- 4. Unexpected Stagnant Water in the Front Yard
- Unexplained standing water in your yard and unexpected indentations can be an indication of various issues that require urgent attention. One of the most common is sewer issues. If you’ve ever checked the soil, the slope at which water runs, but it seems irrelevant to the problem, or if it’s been a long time since you’ve had pooling water due to heavy rainfall, be concerned. Likely the case, it is a leaking sewer or stormwater drainage problem. These types of problems require careful assessment and thorough inspection by a plumbing professional.
- 5. Rodent and Pest Presence
- The appearance of sewer pests like rodents indicates a compromised sewer system as well. Blocked sewer can provide an ideal habitat for pests, and when they’re too comfortable they will find their way into your homes through cracks. Your neighbour’s unrepaired sewer lines connected to your home’s sewer line can also become a reason for these pests’ sudden appearance. Remember, rodents and other pests have a knack for squeezing through small holes and cracks in the pipe and entering the drainage system from one home to another. Failing to repair damages in the sewer line may exacerbate rodent and sewer pests problems, and make the sewer line problems even worse.
- Our pipe relining specialist can identify if this is a problem in your home or your neighbour’s home and provide advice on how we can reline shared lines.
