Tell-tale warning signs of clogged sewers

Most sewers give warning signs that something is wrong:

• A combination of two or more drains synonymously running slow or backing up is a clear indicator of a potential sewer problem.

• If you notice strange, bubbling or gurgling sounds coming from any of your kitchen or bathroom drains and/or toilets.

• If you can smell sewer gas in or around your home, this is a tell-tale symptom that there is a crack somewhere in your sewer system. You should never smell sewer odor unless there’s a crack or opening in your sanitary sewer lines.

• During and after flushing your toilet, if you notice the water in your toilet bowl bubbling, this can be a sure sign of sewer issues.

• Water pooling on your basement floor for no apparent reason or water collecting around floor drains.

• Mold growth may also be a sign of a break in your sewer lines behind your walls. A cracked sewer pipe can cause humidity levels to rise and a mold problem to begin.

Tree root intrusions

Roots are attracted to sewer pipes because there a source of water, nutrients and oxygen—things roots need. When root finds a crack or leak in the pipe, they grow into the pipe. Once inside, roots will continue to grow and fill the sewer pipe to create a root mass that can become matted with grease, paper and other solid matter.

Tree roots also wrap around the sewer line causing the sewer to leak and eventually crushing it. Once a root intrusion occurs, you will need a expert like SPEEDY DRAIN PROS to professionally service and remove the roots and return your sewer to good working order.

Grease buildup

Why Is Grease just so bad for Drains? Grease solidifies once it cools off. Sure, it might flow out of the pan and down the drain when heated, but in a few minutes the grease cools and solidifies in the pipes and acts as a sticky trap for gunk and debris. Over time, this accumulates and the resulting blockage can clog the pipes and sewers. If oils and greases are allowed to enter the sewer system through sinks and toilets, it will cause problems with your sewer system as well as the city sewer system.

Depositing grease in the public sewer main negatively impacts the city’s sewer system and can cause problems for numerous households. SPEEDY DRAIN PROS has all the expertise and equipment to safely remove grease clogs and get your sewer flowing properly.

How to prevent clogged sewers

• Avoid pouring any grease or oil down your drains. Always pour grease into a disposable container and then discard the container in the trash. Otherwise, grease can stick to the inside of your pipes and lead to a clogged kitchen sink.
• Always avoid flushing any paper products other than toilet paper down the toilet. Excess paper or wipes can clog the toilet and/or the entire sewer system.
• Dental floss, feminine hygenie productions  and other household waste should go in the trash instead.
