Broken Sewer Pipe in Need of Repair?
A damaged or obstructed sewer pipe can result in the seepage of contaminated water into your home or property. These leaks from ruptured pipes pose potential dangers to your family’s health and have adverse environmental consequences.
But what are the unmistakable signs of a faulty or blocked sewer line?
- Sluggish drainage: Issues with slow drainage.
- Toilet overflow: Your toilet may overflow or fill up to a high level.
- Foul odours: Unpleasant odours emanating from your drains.
- Multiple blockages: Simultaneous blockages in multiple fixtures.
- Gurgling noises: Gurgling sounds coming from your drains.
- Backflow: Water backing up in your bath or shower drains when the washing machine is in use.
- Low toilet water level: An unusually low water level in your toilet.
- Garden water pools: Accumulation of water in garden areas.
- Altered landscaping: Sinking or shifting pavers or concrete.
- Lush grass patches: Greener patches of grass resulting from additional nutrients from a sewer pipe leak.
Most homeowners have encountered clogged drains and understand that neglecting them only leads to more severe and costly issues. Do not hesitate to contact Mr Emergency Plumbing for sewer pipe repair services today.
What Causes Pipes to Break?
Sewer pipes often play the role of unsung heroes in our urban infrastructure, quietly working out of sight and out of mind.
However, they are not indestructible, and understanding what leads to the breakdown of these crucial conduits is important.
- Ageing and wear: Similar to a well-worn pair of shoes, sewer pipes are not designed to last forever. Over time, the materials they are made of, especially in the case of traditional materials like clay or cast iron, can deteriorate. This gradual weakening stands as a primary cause of pipe failures.
- Tree roots: While trees contribute to the environment’s beauty, their roots can pose a threat to sewer lines. In their search for water, tree roots can infiltrate and obstruct pipes, ultimately causing them to crack or rupture.
- Ground movements: Factors such as earthquakes, soil erosion, or nearby heavy construction can shift the ground. This shifting can displace pipes, resulting in fractures or cracks.
- Temperature fluctuations: Sudden temperature fluctuations, particularly in colder climates, can cause pipes to expand and contract. Over time, this repeated stress can lead to cracks or complete pipe ruptures.
- Clogs and blockages: Disposing of grease down the sink or flushing non-degradable items down the toilet can lead to blockages. As pressure builds behind these obstructions, pipes may eventually give way. Chemical degradation can also inflict severe damage on pipes.
Being aware of these issues can help prevent future hassles related to damaged pipes. That’s why Mr Emergency Plumbing advises regular maintenance. Keep in mind that a little prevention today can spare you from major pipe catastrophes tomorrow.
