Common Signs of a Sewer System Backup

One of the best ways to stay on top of the health of your plumbing system is to know what signs to look out for regarding sewer system backups. If you’re aware of the common symptoms of a backup, you can avoid costly damage to your system. If you suspect you’re experiencing a backup on your property, the experts at Mr. Rooter Plumbing of New Braunfels can perform a thorough inspection of your system and accurately diagnose the issue. Some of the most common signs of a sewer system backup include the following:

• There is water forming around your floor drains.
• Multiple drains around your home are backing up.
• Sinks, toilets, showers, or tubs are backing up with water.
• There are visibly greener patches of grass on your lawn.
• You notice an increase in insects or rodents in your home.
• You notice foul odors around your home’s drains or outside areas.
• Gurgling sounds are coming from your drains or toilets.

What Causes a Main Sewer Line to Back Up?

Clogs and blockages in pipes can cause sewer systems to back up, so it's essential to regularly maintain your plumbing system and ensure nothing goes down the pipes that shouldn't. Tree roots can also infiltrate pipes, growing within them and causing severe blockages. Tree roots can even cause pipes to burst when left unresolved. When there’s a blockage within a pipe, your sewer system can overload and cause sewage to back up into various drains and plumbing fixtures throughout the property. You typically notice these overflows around your drains, toilets, bathtubs, or showers.

What Can I Do to Prevent a Sewer Backup?

Regularly maintaining your plumbing system is a great way to prevent sewer backups. Maintenance can include addressing drainage problems as they occur, scheduling professional inspections, and watching for any signs of a problem within your plumbing system. The service professionals at Mr. Rooter Plumbing of New Braunfels can design a maintenance plan for your home that meets your needs and keeps things flowing smoothly.
