Here Are the Signs of Sewer Line Trouble

Simultaneous Clogging

If your home’s sink, shower, and bathtub drains are all clogging at once, that’s a sure sign that there’s an obstruction in the sewer line. Turn off the water and call our team right away.

Sewer Backup

If you start to see water coming back up through your tub or shower drain, you need to turn off the water supply to your home and call our team right away. You could be on the verge of a sewer backup!

Slowing Drains

Are the drains throughout your home moving more slowly than normal? This could indicate an issue with your sewer line, such as a partial clog that is forming or an issue with drainage. Call us now.

Flooded Cleanout

When you open up your sewer line cleanout in your yard, is it flooded with water—even when no water is running in your home? This could indicate that water is stuck in the line because of a clog.

Foul Sewer Smells

Standing in your front yard above where the line is buried, are there any foul odors present? A sewer line leak can cause sewer odors to escape and move up through the soil. You’ll smell the problem.

Saturated Soil

A sewer line leak can cause the soil above it to become saturated, wet, and smelly. If you’ve noticed a wet spot above the line that can’t be explained by recent rain or yard irrigation, call us.

Here’s How We Diagnose & Fix Sewer Lines.

We start with a sewer camera inspection.

Using a specialized snake tool, we’ll feed a camera down the drain and into your sewer line. This allows our plumber to see the clog, determine what it’s made of, and how best to go about clearing it.
If clogged, we’ll clean out the line.

If there is an obstruction in the line, we’ll remove it. Our experienced plumbers use specialized snakes, augers, and rooting tools for this purpose. We’re your Albuquerque sewer line cleaning experts!
If damaged, we’ll repair the line.

If we notice any cracks or leaks in the sewer line as part of our sewer camera inspection, we’ll also review those with you and discuss how to potentially go about fixing your home’s sewer line.

We Answer Your Top Sewer Line Questions.

What causes sewer line clogs?

In a vast majority of cases, sewer line clogs and obstructions are caused by either the homeowner or by trees. In the case of the former, years of pouring grease, oil, coffee grounds, and other clog-causing food waste down the kitchen sink drain eventually cause a clog to form. Tree roots, thirsting for any moisture in our dry landscape, reach deep and wrap around your sewer line, eventually breaking into it and blocking the line altogether.

What causes sewer line damage?

Sewer lines last a long time, but not forever. The clay or steel sewer lines of older homes may start to deteriorate and need to be replaced. Even before the end of their lifespan, all sewer lines are susceptible to damage from shifting soil, which can disrupt the gravity-based movement of wastewater away from the home. A sewer line leak is your sign that something is structurally wrong with the line.

Can you repair the line, or does it need to be replaced?

It all depends on the exact cause of the problem, the age of the line, and other factors. In some cases, our Albuquerque sewer line replacement services might make more sense for your home. If you live in a historic home with a cast-iron or ceramic sewer line, upgrading to a PVC line might be a good long-term call. When we come out to your home, we’ll advise you on the best course of action.

How can I prevent sewer line clogs?

Most sewer line clogs can be prevented. First, in your home, avoid putting common, clog-causing food waste—such as grease, oils, uncooked rice, or coffee grounds—down the kitchen sink drain. Instead, dispose of these in the trash. Outside, talk to a local arborist to see if any of the trees within 10-15 feet of your line have fast-growing roots that might pose a threat. If so, you’ll want to preemptively have them moved elsewhere on your property.
