Signs of a Clogged Sewer Line

Though sewer lines are underground and mostly out of sight, there will still be indications of a problem. Watch for these signs that could suggest an issue with your sewer:

• Air bubbles are causing your toilet water to burble.
• Gurgling noises are coming from your drains.
• There’s water backing up into the tub after flushing the toilet.
• Theres water backing up into your kitchen sink after running the dishwasher.

If you’re experiencing any of these signs, you likely have a clog in your sewer line and should contact Scott Hale for sewer cleaning services in Salt Lake City, UT.

Causes of a Sewer Backup

Various factors can disrupt the efficiency of your sewer system. Your sewer line could be diminishing due to age or rust. Cast iron and clay sewer pipes are especially susceptible to corrosion.

Other causes of a fault sewer line can be improper components flushed down the drains or a tree root invasion.

Preventing Sewer Clogs

The most common cause of a sewer line clog is that items are flushed down the drains that shouldn’t be.

We’ve provided a list of everyday items to avoid flushing down the toilet:

• Hair
• Gum
• Diapers
• Condoms
• Medication
• Dental floss
• Feminine hygiene products
• Fruits and vegetables
• FOG (fats, oil, and grease)
• Paper products, like paper towels
• “Flushable” products, like wet wipes
• Bleach and other corrosive cleaning products

The rule of thumb for flushing things down the toilet or disposing of anything in your drains is to avoid putting anything that is not liquid, toilet paper, or human waste down the drain. Everything else should go in the trash.
