Serving Vancouver WA | Portland OR

A clogged sewer line isn’t typically a serious issue. However, a clogged sewer line that isn’t taken care of immediately can mean serious trouble for your plumbing system. If you suspect an issue with your sewer line, it is in your best interest to address the problem as soon as possible. A compromised sewer line can cause problems for water quality, and negatively affect the rest of the plumbing system if not taken care of professionally.

Signs of a Clogged Sewer Line

Your sewer line runs deep underneath your home. It’s not as accessible as the trap underneath your kitchen sink, or the drain for your tub. It can be difficult to determine exactly when you should call a professional plumber, but there are some major signs of a clogged sewer line that you should pay attention to:

1. You have multiple clogs or slow drains. If your problems with clogged drains are happening in more than one place, chances are the clog is deep within your plumbing system. 
2. When you flush your toilet, water backs up into a sink or the shower.
3. Foul odor from multiple drains.  
4. Gurgling sound coming from drains. 

A clogged sewer line is bad enough, but if the clog is allowed to remain, it can break your sewer pipe! There’s an important indication of a broken sewer line: an unusually wet or green lawn. If you see changes within your yard and experience any of the four signs above, you need to call a professional plumber immediately!
