Signs You Need Sewer Line Service

Many indicators of sewer line problems are similar to signs of other plumbing issues. However, there are a few ways you can know the issue has to do with your sewer line:

  • Multiple drains are backed up: When there’s a clog in several drains throughout your home, it’s a sign that there might be a sewer line clog that you can’t fix with a simple drain cleaning. In these cases, hydro jetting is needed to clear a clog in a sewer line.

  • Sewage-like odors coming from your drains: If your drains smell foul, you might have a damaged sewer line pipe that’s reached the end of its service life and needs to be replaced.

  • Standing water and sewage odors in your yard: If your sewer line breaks, you’ll see puddles of sewage on your lawn.

  • Using one plumbing fixture causes a backup in another: If, for example, your bathtub backs up when a toilet is flushed, you might be experiencing the effects of a tree root infiltration clogging your sewer line pipes.

  • Mold and mildew underneath carpeting: Your sewer line runs under your lawn and through your home’s foundation, so it’s possible to see signs of a slab leak through excess moisture in your floors.

Have you noticed any of these signs that you need sewer line services? Let Stuart Do It! Call Stuart Services today or contact us online.

Sewer Line Repair vs. Replacement

When you call us, a Stuart Services plumber will arrive with the skills and equipment to restore your plumbing system with expert sewer line services. Repair is likely a viable solution for sewer line clogs or small leaks.

However, the age and condition of your piping can affect whether you need a repair or replacement, so we recommend choosing replacement if:

  • Your piping was installed before 1960.

  • Your sewer pipes are made of outdated materials, such as clay, cast iron, and Orangeburg pipes.

  • Tree roots infiltrated your sewer pipes.

  • Your sewer pipes burst from shifting or settling soil or pipe corrosion.

Start your sewer line repair or replacement by contacting us today.

Consistency and honesty are the trends with Stuart Services. Today, my service technician was Malik. As with all of my prior experiences, Malik delivered professional and conscientious service, always focused on minimizing the cost of repairs. One of the fears homeowners have when having a service call to the home for a repair on equipment that they are not familiar with is being taken advantage of. I have never had an encounter with any Stuart Service technician that I felt was not honest and was not in my best interest. Malik quickly isolated the issue, repaired the faulty equipment and did his best to minimize my cost. Top notch technician and top notch Company. I will continue to use Stuart Services for all of my HVAC, plumbing and electrical service needs and highly, highly recommend them. Thank you again!

So, I don’t have an exact category to use that fits what we just got done, but we had a full HVAC overhaul/replacement and first of all, it’s incredible. Second, the Stuart team has been nothing short of amazing in every sense of the word. Insanely professional, amazingly knowledgeable, and literally the nicest people you’ll ever meet. We’ve had multiple HVAC, electric & plumbing issues over the years, and this team not only addressed each of those, but went above and beyond to do extra tests and double-check things that weren’t even part of the original quote.

The Stuart team has given us so much peace of mind about everything they’ve worked on and we’re pumped to be part of the family 😄

Matthew, Steven, Nick, Josh, Kyle, Zach, Mike, Chris, Ed, Julian.
