In your home, each plumbing fixture has a drain<\/a>\u2014your sinks, tubs, showers, and toilets all have drain pipes to get the water out of your home. All of these drain pipes feed into one main sewer line that carries water and waste out of your house and toward the street, where your home\u2019s sewer line meets the public water treatment system. Because your sewer line is connected to every drain in your home, major backups occur when the line is clogged or damaged.<\/p>\n Wondering how you can tell if your issue is just an isolated clogged drain or a main sewer line problem? If you\u2019ve only noticed one slow drain or toilet clog, you likely don\u2019t have a sewer issue. When your main sewer line is clogged, water backs up at the lowest point in your house (toilet, basement, laundry room, etc.) and if you run any water, the backup gets worse. Here are a few questions to ask yourself if you\u2019re unsure:<\/p>\n If you answered yes to one or both of these, it\u2019s more likely that the problem is with your sewer line rather than one or two individual drains.<\/p>\n Read about warning signs of main line clogs \u00bb<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Please note that main sewer line clogs<\/a> are an emergency, as running any water in your home will cause water and sewer backups to get worse. <\/strong><\/p>\n Call Len The Plumber at (800) 950-4619<\/span>(800) 950-4619<\/a> immediately\u2014we\u2019ll respond within 2 hours to provide the emergency sewer and drain rooter service you need!<\/strong><\/p>\n Many homeowners are surprised to learn that they are responsible for their sewer lines up to the property line\u2014typically, you must handle sewer line issues that occur anywhere from your home to the main sewer line under the street<\/strong>. Check your home\u2019s policy for confirmation, but generally homeowners are responsible for the cost of the actual pipe replacement and trench digging (and labor associated with it). Some homeowners policies will cover damage caused by the problem, but not the problem itself.<\/p>\n In many cases, yes! As long as your sewer pipe isn\u2019t completely collapsed or sagging, you can opt for trenchless sewer replacement<\/a>. With this method, a cable is inserted into the damaged sewer line to pull the new sewer line into position. This bursts the old pipe while putting the new one in its place without trench digging or damage to your property. The only digging needed is for small access holes\u2014otherwise, you\u2019ll hardly be able to tell that the work was done.<\/p>\n Learn more about trenchless sewer repair \u00bb<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n When you need something as serious as sewer line replacement, you don\u2019t want to choose the wrong plumber.
