For Your Information

Here are some of the ways to identify clogged sewer drains.

Multiple Fixtures Are Clogged
The most common warning sign of a clogged sewer drain is when more than one plumbing fixture backs up. Toilets and other plumbing fixtures in your home get affected. If you have been experiencing such situations, then it certain that your sewer line is clogged. To avoid costly repairs, we highly recommend you get your other plumbing fixtures checked by an experienced professional.

Unusual Reactions When Using Fixtures
If you experience any unexpected or unusual reaction when using plumbing fixtures, call us right away. This is one of the signs that your sewer line is clogged.

Toilets
As toilets have a direct path to the sewer and drain line, they are most likely to be affected first. When your main line sewer is blocked, it's difficult for your toilets to function properly.

Tub and Shower
As your tub and shower are at a lower level than the sink drain, they get affected, too. If you suspect that your sewer pipe is clogged then you certainly need to look whether the tub and shower drains are blocked.

Flush the Toilet 
If you notice that the water backs up or comes up into the tub or shower when flushing your toilet, then it is a sign that your sewer drain is clogged. The flushed water cannot run through the sewer drain and has nowhere to go except running out in your shower drain.

Run the Sink
The next important thing to look for is trapped air in the plumbing system. Let the water flow from the sink closest to your toilet for a minute or two. If you notice toilet bubbles or the rise in water level, it means the blockage is in the main sewer pipe not in your toilet.

Washing Machine: 
While operating your washing machine, you can notice another warning sign of a sewer drain blockage. If you witness water overflowing into your toilet and backing up into your tub or shower, it could possibly be due to a sewer drain clog. However, it can also be a washing machine or shower problem, too, and not a sewer clog. When the flushed water in your toilet is flowing down well then this means you have a washing machine stoppage, not a sewer main.

Drainage at the Clean-Out
It is important to get your main line cleaned out as it is one of the possible ways to detect sewer drain clogs. Put the clean-out in the right place and open it by either unscrewing or pulling to remove the cap. Remove all the waste and water that could be holding up there. There should be no water coming up the clean-out pipe. If the water overflows from the clean-out or stands in the pipe, this means you have a mainline sewer blockage.

Once you have verified a sewer drain clog. DO NOT USE DRAIN CHEMICALS. A sewer drain snake is required to remove the blockage. Call us today to get professional service. If you suspect a sewer drain clog, it should be cleared.
