  • Tree Roots: Even though tree roots are considered healthy for the soil, tree roots entering your sewer line can cause major damage to pipes. Tree roots tend to grow into rough shapes that invade the inside of your sewer lines causing clogs and slow drains that can back up sewage into your home.

  • Sluggish Drains: You may notice a slight delay as the water goes down the drain. However, slow drains occurring in multiple areas can indicate a blockage somewhere in the main sewer line.

  • Unpleasant Odors: A healthy sewer should be airtight apart from vent stacks. Smelling sewage odor when you step outside is caused by sewer gases under the soil, suggesting a crack or clog in your sewer line.

  • Damp Patches of Grass/Pooling Water: Consistently wet areas or water pooling is caused by a leak in your sewer line that rises to the top of the soil.

  • Gurgling sound: The occasional gurgling sound coming from your plumbing is common. Constant gurgling indicates a damaged or blocked pipe where water cannot drain properly releasing air pockets.

  • Insects, bugs, and animals are attracted to the smell of sewage.

They used advanced technology to diagnose and fix the problem quickly, minimizing disruption to my home. Their knowledge and skill set were impressive.
