3 Common Sewage Drainage Issues

Taking care of your sewer lines is essential to avoid further damage - if you suspect any problems, it's best to get a professional inspection. Some common signs of trouble include: broken or corroded pipes, clogged drains, sewage backups and slow draining wastewater. Don't wait - address these issues as soon as they come up to prevent them from getting worse!

1. Drain Blockages

Sewer blockages can be caused by a variety of things, including wipes, diapers, hair, grease and food particles - it can be difficult to pinpoint the exact cause. It's important to keep an eye out for early signs of trouble such as slow draining wastewater. If you believe your sewer line is at risk of clogging, contact a professional for help right away!

Some signs include:

  • Foul odors coming from pipes
  • All drains become slow-moving simultaneously
  • Unexplained gurgling noises in pipes
  • Water starts backing up into other drains

2. Tree Roots Obstructing Lines

Beautiful trees can bring a lot of joy, but they can also cause damage to your sewer pipes without you even knowing it. Tree roots tend to grow towards wherever there is water, and can cause blockages or collapses if left unmanaged. One way to help prevent this issue is by regularly watering your trees so that the roots don't seek water elsewhere. Be sure to keep an eye on your sewer pipes for any signs of root intrusion!

3. No Sewer Line Pitch

Gravity and sewer lines usually go hand in hand, but if gravity isn't on your side, the pipes must be installed with a proper pitch to help move wastewater along. Without the right angle, waste can start to accumulate and lead to clogged pipes. Warning signs of a sewer problem include nasty odors or standing water in certain parts of your home. If you notice any of these signs, contact a professional for help.

How Much Does It Cost To Replace A Sewer Line?

When it comes to sewer lines, gravity and pipe installation play a huge role in ensuring wastewater flows properly. Generally, gravity is enough to maintain the flow of water, but if not, the pipes will need to be installed with the correct pitch. Without the correct angle, waste can accumulate in the pipes and result in clogged or backed-up sewage.


If you notice horrible odors or standing water in certain parts of your home, it could be a warning sign of an underlying plumbing issue. In these cases, it may be necessary to replace your old sewer line with new piping. Depending on where you live and the size of the project, replacing a sewer line can start at around $3,000 and go up from there. To get an accurate estimate, speak with a professional before deciding how to proceed. Even though this kind of repair work can be costly upfront, it's always best to invest in quality materials so that problems don't arise down the road due to shoddy repairs.
