Sewer Backup Roanoke, IN

One of the best ways to deal with a sewer backup is to be proactive about it rather than reactive. Proactivity starts with being equipped with the warning signs of a sewer backup. Roanoke, IN homeowners should be aware of the following:

• Slow draining: If water drains slowly from sinks, toilets, or bathtubs, this indicates that there may be a clog in your sewer line.
• Multiple clogged drains: When more than one drain in your home is clogged at the same time, especially if they are in unconnected rooms like the kitchen and bathroom, this signals that there is a larger issue with your sewer pipes.
• Foul odors: If you smell a strong sewage odor coming from drains or toilets, it is a clear warning of a potential sewer backup.
• Gurgling noises: Your toilets or drains shouldn't make gurgling or bubbling noises when in use. However, if air is trapped in the pipes due to a clog, they will gurgle. We'll professionally clean your drains so you don't have to worry about these noises any longer.
• Water backing up: If water comes back up from the shower, tub, or sink drains, especially when the toilet is flushed there is a clog in your sewer line.
• Wet floor drains: An overflowing or wet floor drain in your basement or laundry room could be a potential sign that a sewer backup is imminent.
• Changes in your yard: Sinkholes, water pooling, or wet patches on your lawn indicate that there is a break in the main sewer line, eliciting the need for an immediate sewer backup repair. Roanoke, IN homeowners should not delay reaching out if they notice changes in their yards.
• Toilet troubles: If your toilet is frequently backing up or overflowing, it could be a sign of a larger sewer line problem that warrants an investigation.
