Sewer Line Problems Stink — Literally.

Here's What to Do About It.

Nobody wants to talk about sewer lines... until they fail.
Suddenly, you’re Googling “why does my yard smell like rotten eggs?” or “sewer line repair near me” while praying it’s not that bad.

Let’s talk about what is under your yard, why it matters, and what happens when it all goes wrong.


 
What Is a Sewer Line, Anyway?

Your sewer line is the underground pipe that carries all wastewater from your home (yep—all of it) to your city’s sewer system or your septic tank.
When it works, you never think about it. When it doesn’t? You notice. Fast.


 
Common Causes of Sewer Line Damage

Even if you’re not flushing weird stuff or planting trees near your pipes, sewer lines can still go south. Here’s how:

  • 🌳 Tree Roots: They love to sneak into tiny pipe cracks and expand over time.

  • 🪨 Shifting Soil or Ground Movement: Especially after heavy rain or construction.

  • 🧱 Aging Pipes: Older homes often have clay or cast iron pipes—both degrade over time.

  • 🚫 Grease, Wipes & Debris: A buildup of non-degradable gunk slows flow and stresses your pipe.

  • 💥 Collapsed or Bellied Pipes: Sagging or broken sections that disrupt flow completely.


 
Signs You Might Need a Sewer Line Repair

Not sure if it’s the main line or just a drain? Watch for these red flags:

🚽 Multiple drains backing up at once
🌊 Sewage smells inside or outside the home
🪠 Frequent clogs that don’t stay gone
🫧 Gurgling sounds in your toilet or sink
🌱 Unusually lush patches in your lawn (yes, that’s gross fertilizer at work)


 
The Sewer Line Repair Process (Without the Drama)

At Pro Sewer, we make sewer repairs as painless as possible. Here’s what to expect:

  1. Camera Inspection – We find the exact problem (no guesswork).

  2. Clear Diagnosis – You get photos, video, and options.

  3. Efficient Repair – Whether it’s a small section or full replacement, we move fast.

  4. Clean Finish – We leave your yard looking like we were never there (except with better pipes).

We offer trenchless repair options too, which means less digging and faster fixes.


 
Repair vs. Replace — What’s the Difference?
  • Repair: Works for isolated issues (like root intrusion or a crack).

  • Replacement: Necessary for major damage, collapsed lines, or very old pipe systems.

We’ll walk you through the best option and only recommend what you actually need.


 
Don’t Wait Until You’re Standing in Sewage

The longer you wait, the worse it gets. A small crack today can be a yard-flooding nightmare tomorrow. Plus, untreated sewer issues can cause serious health risks and structural damage.
