Common Warning Signs Of Sewage Backups In St. Petersburg
There are two types of sewage backups in St. Petersburg
- A clog or break in your drain lines.
- A clog or break in the main sewer line of your home.
A drain line transports waste waster from a drain to your sewer main. If water in your sinks or toilets drain slowly, they may be clogged, you may even start to notice bubbling from your toilet or puddles of water near your sink, bath or shower. Drain clogs will only effect the fixtures attached to the line is clogged, so these signs won’t be in every area of your home. Fortunately, if you notice these issues, you can often prevent a sewage backup before it happens.
A sewer main, on the other hand, connects waste water from your entire home to the sewer system. These types of clogs & breaks can cause serious damage to your property and are often caused by tree roots or the wrong things being flushed down the toilet: hair, feminine hygiene products, and other items that shouldn’t be flushed. If the sewer main is clogged or your sump pump is broken, all of the drains in your home may run slowly, you may notice foul odors emanating from them, flushing a toilet may cause backups in other areas of your home.
If you notice any of these warning signs, call a plumber before sewage backs up int your property and you can prevent a very costly problem from ever occurring.
