Identifying a broken sewer pipe early can prevent extensive damage. Look for these common signs:
- Slow drains and gurgling toilets: These indicate clogs or damage in your sewer line.
- Sewage backup: This is a serious problem requiring immediate attention.
- Foul odors: Sewer gas leaks can create unpleasant smells in your home.
- Foundation cracks and sinking areas: These can be caused by leaking or damaged sewer lines.
