Septic and sewage water comes from homes, commercial buildings, and industrial buildings. This waste flows through pipes attached to sinks, toilets, and bathtubs, and runs underground into the sewer system – where it is eventually processed through a treatment plant.
How do sewage and septic line issues arise?
Over time, and as seasons change, everything moves – including water and sewer lines under the ground. This shift can cause your water systems to become gunked-up with grease, hair, and other things that perhaps shouldn’t be there at all – like toys and even cell phones!
Common Sewer Issues
Most sewer lines can function for years without any cause for concern. However, when a sewer problem does arise, the situation can be overwhelming, gross, and extremely inconvenient.
You may have a sewer line issue if you notice:
- Multiple fixtures in your home are not draining properly
- There’s strange kickback in your bathtub, sink, or toilet
- Your drains are slow, gurgle, or smell badly
- You notice sewer backup in your basement, lawn, or driveway
- Your house was built before 1970 and your line is Orangeburg pipe and has deteriorated
- You have large trees in your front yard and its roots have invaded your sewer line
