What’s Causing My Sewer Line Problems?
The most common sewer line problem in Benicia are blockages and breaks. Blockages in main sewer lines are typically caused by an accumulation of waste that impedes free flow within the system. The most common blockage culprits are food, grease, dead animals, and inorganic materials, such as feminine hygiene products and diapers.
Sewer line breaks, on the other hand, might be due to a poorly done sewer pipe installation. It may also be due to:
- Tree root invasion: It’s not uncommon for roots to break into sewer pipes to reach the moisture and nutrients within. The result is a sewage pipe that’s not only broken but also clogged by the invading roots.
- Seismic activity: Sudden movements in the earth can forcefully bend sewer lines and cause them to break or disconnect.
- Accidental digging: During landscaping or other types of construction over buried sewer lines, workers may accidentally dig up or break a pipe.
- Age: Over time, pipes become weaker and less able to handle the weight and pressure of their contents, leading to a rupture.
