If you have frequent plumbing problems in your home, you might have a problem with your sewer line. Here are some telltale signs that you need sewer repair in Chico, CA.
FOUL SMELLS
If your sewer line keeps backing up into your drains, there will likely be a stench. If there is a musty smell that gets stronger near your drains or your toilet, you might need sewer pipe repair.
MULTIPLE CLOGGED DRAINS
One backed-up sink or bathtub can be due to a clogged drain. If nearly every drain in your home is stopped up, you probably have a bad sewer line and would need a replacement. A blocked or damaged sewer line can cause a lot of problems, but a good plumber can help you.
DISCOLORED WATER
Water can be discolored by a number of things in your pipes, but it is often a sign of a backed-up sewer line. If your water has a yellowish or brownish color and you notice the other signs on this list, consider sewer repair services.
SOGGY LAWN
A little water in your lawn is obviously a good thing, but multiple soft spots and puddles of standing water could be a sign of a leaky sewer line. The same applies if your lawn is greener than usual. A new sewer pipe installation may be in order, so look for some of the other signs on this list if your lawn is unusually verdant and has puddles even if it hasn’t rained lately.
