Sewer Lines & Septic Systems

Greenville Sewer Line and Septic Plumbers

Sewer lines and septic tanks are important parts of a plumbing system. The sewer line transports wastewater from your home or business to the municipal sewage system, efficiently and safely removing waste from your property. A septic tank is a self-contained underground system that serves those without access to a centralized sewage system. The septic tank treats and disposes of household wastewater on-site, providing an effective solution for properties that are usually in more rural areas. 

The proper functioning of both sewer lines and septic tanks is vital for maintaining hygiene and sanitation. A well-maintained sewer line serves to prevent backups and potential health hazards. Similarly, a properly functioning septic tank breaks down and processes waste, allowing for safe disposal into the surrounding soil. 

A damaged sewer line can lead to unpleasant odors, slow drains, and even sewage backups into your home or business. Similarly, a malfunctioning septic tank can contaminate groundwater, causing environmental damage and potential health hazards. It’s imperative to get professional help as soon as possible. 

The Signs of Sewer Line Damage

These are just a few of the red flags that can alert property owners to damage: 

  • Slow drains: If your sinks, tubs, and toilets are draining slower than usual, it could be a sign of a clog or blockage in the sewer line. 
  • Unpleasant odors: Foul smells coming out of the drains or yard can signal a broken or clogged sewer line. These odors are not only unpleasant but can turn into a health risk due to the potential presence of harmful bacteria and gases.
  • Sewage backups: One of the most alarming signs of sewer line damage is sewage backing up into your property. This can occur first in the lowest drains, such as those in the basement. It calls for immediate intervention to prevent further contamination and damage.

Our sewer line and septic plumbers are available 24/7, offering same-day scheduling, weekend appointments, and emergency service. Call the Greenville office at (864) 660-7491.

The Signs of Septic Tank Damage

If you spot any of these warning signs, call our office: 

  • Pooling water: Unexplained standing water or soggy areas around your septic tank or drain field can indicate a malfunctioning system. 
  • A stench: Like with sewer lines, persistent bad smells around your tank or inside your home are strong indicators of issues. These odors suggest that waste is not being properly processed.
  • Toilet flushing issues: This points to a septic tank that’s full or experiencing blockages. If these problems persist, get your septic system inspected ASAP.
