When clogs happen in your sewage pipes, your waste wouldn’t be able to flow freely out of your home and might even get blocked thereby causing the waste to flow back into your home.

In this post, you get to learn about sign signs that portend troubles of sewer pipes clog and if timely fixed can save lots of trouble. You can also get a professional plumber.

Slow Drainage

Often time, the first telltale of clogged sewer pipes is slow draining. When the water from the bathroom or your kitchen takes much longer to drain out, you have a constriction problem in the sewer pipes. This constriction is usually caused by grime, hair, oil, and dirt flowing from the kitchen sink.

Do not make the mistake of flushing the drain with liquid drain cleaners as it may be harmful to your family, environment and still not solve the problem, so call on a professional to help you inspect and fix the problem.

Water Backing Up

When the sewer pipe is clogged, you found out that waste can’t move out of your home and water keeps on backing up in your toilet and bathroom. Also, you might notice this problem when particles of food can be seen in your sink after making use of the dishwasher and flushing out.

Toilet Overflow

When your toilet overflows, it’s always a sign of a clog in your sewer pipes. This is usually caused by using too much toilet paper or flushing in the toilet things like paper towels and feminine products. These things are harmful to the sewer thus getting blocked and allowing water to back up your home.

Bad Odors

The odd smells of sewage are unmistakable and might even be the first sign of sewer clog you will notice. If you notice this smell in your home, it’s an indication of sewer clog and sewage backup which should be fixed immediately.

Gurgling Sound

A gurgling sound or other odd sound or noise in your sewer pipes is an indication of a sewer clog. This disruption occurs when water is forcing its way to pass through the pipes which is a result of trapped air in the plumbing.

Though the sewer may still be working but should be immediately fixed to avoid further problems.

Moisture In the Foundation

When sewer pipes clog and are unable to pass out waste properly, the water seeps into the foundation. This could cause a lot of problems to the structural integrity of your whole property.

If you notice moisture in your basement or on walls, you need to quickly call on a professional to inspect the cause of this. Moisture in the basement or foundation even anywhere in the house can cause mold growth which is harmful to the health of your family members.
