Determining whether your sewer line requires replacement involves observing the following signs:
- Frequent Clogs: Regular blockages, despite maintenance efforts, may indicate deteriorating pipes.
- Multiple Fixture Issues: Simultaneous drainage problems across various fixtures suggest a mainline problem.
- Sewage Odor: Persistent sewage smells inside or outside your home can signal a compromised sewer line.
- Foundation Cracks: Leaks can erode soil, leading to structural issues like foundation cracks.
- Increased Pest Activity: Rodents and insects are attracted to leaking sewage, indicating possible pipe damage.
Consulting a licensed plumber for a thorough inspection can confirm the need for a sewer line replacement.
