Sewer Line Issues You Can Avoid

Always consult a plumber in Boca Raton, FL, from a trusted company like DASCOR Plumbing if you’re experiencing sewer-related problems. Did you know there are some sewer line issues you may be able to avoid? We discuss the more common ones:

Clogs or Backups

Clogs and/or backups are a common reason to need sewer repair in Boca Raton, FL. However, you can reduce your risk of having stubborn or recurring clogs or full backups in the first place if you’re careful with how you use your drains. This is a goal you can accomplish by:

• Using a separate can for grease
• Putting wastebaskets near drains to discourage improper disposal
• Using drain strainers or covers

Leaks

Sewer pipe line repair is also often necessary if you’re seeing signs of a leak, such as soggy spots in your yard. You may be able to avoid leaks by being diligent about routine maintenance that includes having regular drain/sewer line pipes inspected. Another way to minimize your leak risk is to avoid planting new bushes, shrubs, or trees too close to underground pipes.

Cracks or Pipe Fractures

Reduce your risk of needing sewer line replacement much sooner than what’s typical for sewer and drain pipes by taking steps to prevent cracks or fractures. This is something you may be able to do by:

• Considering water filtration or softening systems if you have “hard” or mineral-heavy water
• Having a pressure regulator or similar device installed if you have issues with inconsistent water pressure
• Scheduling regular inspections so smaller cracks can be dealt with before they turn into larger ones
