How to Know When Your Sewer Line is Clogged

Clogged sewer line is a widespread issue, and it gets worse by the time if left unattended by a professional plumber. Next time you encounter a low pressure faucet or a damp surface around your house then call a plumber over and get your pipes checked. We often ignore such direct signs of clogging and only notice it when the issue increases. In this blog you will read about how you can identify an irregular plumbing issue which can be a result of your main sewer line being clogged.

These are some common signs of blockage in a sewer line:

• Your toilet’s water level fluctuates for no apparent reason. When waste water does not drain, changes in water pressure affect the home’s drains, which can be seen in the toilet water.
• Multiple drains in the home are slow. The sewer line connects all domestic drains to either the municipal sewer system or a septic tank. When your sewage line becomes clogged, it affects all or most of your drains.
• When water flows down one drain, it can generate gurgling in another. When you flush the toilet, for example, water gurgles in the sink or shower drain, or when you run your washing machine, the toilet gurgles.
• The sewage line clean out allows water to flow up or out. Plumbers utilise a sewer clean out, which is a covered, upright pipe, to clear a clogged sewer line. If water is coming up from the clean out, it signifies the line is plugged and it can’t drain.
• Your shower, bathtub, sink, or toilet is emitting a terrible stench. The foul odour is sewage that hasn’t been evacuated due to a clogged sewer line.
