The only time you may think about your sewer line is when you're having problems with it. Although such thoughts are rare, there are a few telltale signs that you should be paying attention to your sewer line and considering calling a professional. GNG Plumbing and The Hardware Store, a plumbing service in Orange Beach, AL, shares some of those signs. 

4 Signs You Need Sewer Line Cleaning

1. Clogging Toilets

One clogged toilet may not be a sign of trouble. But a toilet that gets clogged frequently is an indication that the sewer line itself is backed up, clogged, or experiencing some sort of blockage. 

2. Odors in Drains

Because the drains in your shower and sinks are usually completely odorless, if foul smells start to billow out of them, it's not something that can be ignored. If this starts happening regularly, reach out to a professional, who can take a look into your pipework and sewer lining. 

3. Gurgling Water

If you start to hear gurgling water coming from your toilet or one of the drains in your home, it could be evidence of a blockage in your sewer lining that's not allowing water to drain thoroughly. If the gurgling persists for several days or a week, reach out to a professional plumbing service. 

4. Weak Faucet

A faucet that suddenly loses a significant amount of pressure, with water slowing to a trickle, may point to an issue in one particular spot in your water pipes. While a resourceful DIYer may be able to pinpoint the problem on their own, fixing it will still likely require a professional.
