Most sewer pipes are built to last for decades. Such lines could last anywhere from 50 to 100 years without experiencing problems, or potentially longer. This means that you possibly go half your life, or your whole lifetime, without experiencing sewage pipe problems.

But once-in-a-lifetime problems still might rear their ugly head. Sewer lines that once served you seamlessly could break down on you now. It’s never ideal to have this piping clog, or worse yet, to have these pipes burst.

Sewer systems are far too complex to be dealt with in a DIY fashion. That’s why a plumbing professional can offer peace of mind and take on the stress of the work for you.

They can utilize the best tools and technology, to detect and diagnose if your sewer system needs:

  • Repair, and if the lines can be meaningfully restored with cleaning or repair.
  • Replacement, if the sewer system is too collapsed and deteriorated to save.
  • To have burst sewer pipes patched up or fitted with new pipe lining.
  • To have damaged pipes or lines excavated from the ground.

No matter the piping problem, no matter if it’s a PVC and ABS or clay sewer pipe, professional plumbing services will provide your best shot at remedying these sewer line issues. Call Blue Harbor Plumbing, Heating & Cooling today for expert assistance with your sewer pipes.

Problems With Every Type of Sewer Line

Sewer pipes could fail or deteriorate for a multitude of different reasons. Most commonly, they will fail because of:

  • The sewer pipes reaching old age: If you’re in between the 50 to 100-year range, it might be time for some once-in-a-lifetime service.
  • Corrosion in the sewer pipes: Aging can cause decay, weakening the overall structural integrity of your sewer system.
  • Sewer pipes shifting ground: Earthquakes or street-wide construction could disturb the alignment of your sewage lines.
  • Tree roots infiltrating the piping: Overgrowth can create blockages in lines, or worse, lead to pipes bursting.
  • Improper installation of sewer lines: Poor installation could lead to problems down the line!

Sewer lines are often situated deep in the ground. They could be buried as shallow as one foot, or as deep as over six feet. This can make sewer system issues quite difficult to detect and diagnose.

Signs That You Need Drain or Sewer Line Service

You might not be able to immediately tell the root cause of your pipe problems. After all, you don’t have a professional plumbing camera to look down there.

But you might pick up on certain signs and symptoms that could indicate sewer line problems, such as:

  • Slowly draining tubs, sinks, or showers.
  • Wastewater surfacing onto your property.
  • Septic waste backing up into other water lines.
  • Pest problems coinciding with sewage problems.
  • Strange indentations on your yard’s surfaces.
  • Unusual gurgling sounds coming from your drains.
  • Foundational cracks and sinkholes on your premises.
  • Unpleasant smells emerging from your sewer drains.

Notice one or more of these aforementioned signs? Notice your sewer pipes failing to perform as seamlessly as they once did? If so, then it might be time to phone a professional plumbing crew.
