4 Signs Your Sewer Pipes Need Inspection

 

Out of sight, out of mind. At Pristine Plumbing, we know that sewer pipes are at risk of being ignored or neglected until something goes wrong. Regular sewer pipe inspection is an important step in preventing backups and clogs and can extend the life of your pipelines. If you notice any of the following occurring in your home or business, call your leading Indianapolis experts at Pristine Plumbing to schedule a sewer pipe inspection right away.

Foul Smelling Odors

Sewer smells coming up from your drains and pipes are a clear indication of a sewer line issue. If you notice foul-smelling sewage odors anywhere inside or outside your property, it’s important to have your pipes inspected as soon a possible. Sewage smells inside or in the yard could be due to leak in your pipelines and require immediate professional attention.

Pooling or Slow-Draining Water

Pooling water on the floor or drains that seem to take forever to do their job are also signs that should never be ignored. That slow draining bathtub may just be in need of professional cleaning, or there may be a larger issue occurring inside your sewer. A proper sewer camera inspection is the only way to tell for sure what is going on inside your pipes.

Repeated Clogs or Backups

If you are dealing with wastewater backups, multiple clogs, or the same drain clogging over and over again, there is likely something wrong inside your pipes, such as a major blockage or clog. While it may be tempting to pour down a bottle of drain cleaner, this can cause even more damage to your pipes. Repeated clogs or backups are a major sign that your pipeline needs a professional inspection.

Gurgling or Bubbling Noises

Bubbling toilet bowls or gurgling noises coming from your drains may indicate a blockage due to scale, debris, or tree root infestation in your pipeline. If left untreated, sewer line blockages can cause serious damage to your home or business. If you hear strange noises coming from your plumbing, it’s critical that you have your sewer lines inspected.
