What are the signs of a broken sewage?

Cast iron sewer pipes cause problems in many homes. They usually have a service life of 25 to 35 years. If your pipes are more than 25 years old, they can suddenly fail. Regular maintenance is vital to prevent pipe damage. Regular inspections can prevent the build-up of large deposits of dirt and debris and protect against cracks, breaks and debris.

  • Unpleasant odours. If you notice a sewage odour in areas with exposed pipes or near drain pipes, it may indicate a break or leak.
  • Slow drainage. If you notice that the water in your home is draining slowly, it may indicate a potential issue with your sewer pipe. A damaged or clogged sewer pipe can cause water to drain much slower than usual.
  • Water backup. A common sign of damaged sewer pipes is water backing up in your bathtub, sink or toilet when you use other plumbing fixtures. This can be caused by a clog or blockage in the sewer line.
  • Gurgling. Strange gurgling noises coming from the sewer, especially after flushing the toilet or using other plumbing fixtures, may indicate that air is entering the sewer pipe due to damage or clogging.
  • Wet areas in the yard. There may be damp or wet areas in your yard accompanied by an unpleasant odour. This may indicate a leaking sewer pipe. Sewage can seep into the ground, causing dampness and an unpleasant odour.

How long does a sewer line repair take?

The time it takes to repair a sewer line in Waterloo can vary depending on how severe the damage is, where the problem is located, and what repair method is used. In certain situations, basic problems such as minor clogs in the sewer line are resolved in a short time, usually within a few hours. However, more complex issues, such as significant pipe damage, can take several days.

The repair process usually consists of various stages, including identifying the problem, locating the damaged area, and then carrying out the necessary repairs. For example, if a sewer line requires trenchless repair methods such as pipe-lining or pipe bursting, the process can take less time compared to traditional excavation methods, which are more labour-intensive.

How do I know if my sewer line needs to be replaced?

Here are some signs that a sewer line, residential or commercial, may need to be repaired or replaced.

  • Strong unpleasant odour in the basement, garden or any other area of your home
  • Water drains slowly from the sink or bathtub
  • Strange sounds coming from the toilet
  • Lots of green grass near the sewer pipe

In the event of damage to the pipelines, maintenance should be a top priority. We offer quality sewer pipe replacement services in Waterloo, even on the same day.
