Sewer Repair Puyallup
A clogged sewer line occurs when the main pipe gets clogged from one or more other connecting pipes throughout the premises. When a main pipe gets restricted in this way, it can cause irreversible damage to the rest of the property. It is among the most dreaded calamities that a homeowner can face. The thought of a clogged sewer line that sends wastewater backing up into the home is enough to make anyone shudder. The mess and nasty smell make it unpleasant to be in your home, and the damage to your belongings as well as to the structure can be significant. Unfortunately, due to the severity of risks involved with this type of situation, this would require a professional hand to assess and fix.
The most common cause of a clogged sewer line is grease or other oils being poured down the sink and cooling down as it flows further down the pipe. The sticky build-up then catches passing debris and solids such as hair or other items that may have been dropped. The flow of wastewater becomes increasingly restricted until it is finally completely blocked and there is a clog in your main sewer line that causes damage to all other connecting lines.

Sewer Pipe Repair Puyallup
How can you tell if your sewage system is having issues and may need cleaning or repair? Here are some of the most common tell-tale signs that your sewer may be clogged or damaged:
- Sewage backups in your home’s sinks, drains, toilets, tub, or shower
-This may look like dirty water or sludge coming up through the drain - Re-occurring clogs in multiple pipes or drains in your home
-I.e. consistent plumbing and pipe issues in other areas of the property - Unidentifiable odors in your home that don’t have an obvious source
-Smells like sewage or mildew/mold coming from vents or walls - Water coming back out of the drains or hookups for your sinks, bathtub, drains, or washing machine
-This issue usually also pairs with the inability to flush your toilet completely - There are gurgling sounds coming from your toilet or sink
-This can also look like bubbles or foam appearing around drains - Increased humidity in your home or mold appearing on walls and corners
-Because of the health risk associated with this issue, immediate assistance is necessary - Increase of rodents and pests in or around your home
-Along with the sewer repair, this is an issue that must be addressed by pest control in order to completely fix it - Soggy patches of grass in your yard or extra vibrant plant life
-While it may look beautiful, an extra green or lush lawn with squishy patches can mean that there might be sewer damage underground
If you have any of these symptoms occurring, we can help determine where the issue is coming from or refer you to a great leak detection company first if necessary. Once we know where the problem has occurred in your home or underground pipes, we can use traditional or trenchless sewer repair methods to get to the damaged pipe or area, and then repair or repipe the affected portion. Trenchless repair is a faster and cheaper method that is often sufficient for many sewer repair needs, but if the damage is widespread throughout the sewer system and costs you hundreds in excess water bills, sometimes digging everything out and replacing the system is the best choice.
