Your home’s main sewer line is the primary avenue where waste is channeled into municipal sewers. Consequently, it has a major impact on your plumbing system and the maintenance it needs. If you’re overdue for a sewer cleaning, the system may let you know. Keep a look out for the following signs.

Signs It’s Time for a Sewer Line Cleaning

1. Slow Drains

Slow drains are a nuisance and often signal that there’s a clog somewhere in your sewer line. It can be home-wide or specific to the drains in one area. The same goes for toilets, showers, and sink drains. Clogs pose a significant risk to your system. The buildup can lead to flooding or damage, which is why you should schedule an inspection if you suspect a clog. Our technicians will take a comprehensive look at your system and determine the best course of action.

2. Regular Backups

If you experience frequent clogs for no apparent reason, a backed up sewer line is often the cause. In most cases, they are accompanied by fouls smells and followed by slow drains. King’s Sanitary Services drain cleaning service will resolve the issue and ensure that blockages don’t damage your pipes and lead to overflows and water damage.

3. Bad Smells

The smell of rotting waste and waste buildup is the last thing you want to find lingering in your home. In most cases, it’s related to a backup in your sewer line that allows waste to sit or even overflow. Smells are often present in the yard as well, though this is typically related to a septic tank if your home has one. Never wait to schedule an inspection. Waste is highly unsanitary, and bad smells may signal that there are other problems within your drainage system.
