Signs You Need Sewer Line Repair

A slow moving drain isn't always an easy do it yourself fix. One of the main problems to a sewage backup is due to a damaged sewer line. Below are 3 signs to look for in order to know when your home needs sewer line repair.

• Strange Smells - 
• If you are greeted with an odd odor when you walk into your home, it could be that it's sewage you are smelling coming from your drains. If you smell something that is off or unpleasant, make sure to give our expert sewer line repair team a call.
• Yard Is Soggy & Very Green - 
• If you notice that your lawn seems soggy and doesn't ever seem to dry out, this could be an indicator that your sewer line has a leak and the sewage is leaking into your yard. Another indicator is that your lawn is very green. This is due to the nutrients and extra water it would be receiving from the sewer leak.
• Toilet Backs Up When You Flush - 
• Does it take more then one flush to fully flush your toilet? When you do, does your toilet back up? It could be that you have a clog in your sewer line and if you notice that your toilet water isn't clear when it backs up, turn off your water supply at the back of the toilet immediately and call our expert plumbers.
