Symptoms of a Sewage or Water Line Problem

Unfortunately, more often than not, we don’t always know there’s a sewer or water line issue until it’s too late. If you’re experiencing any of the following symptoms, call the experts before it’s too late.

Slow draining sinks, showers, tubs and toilets

If you’re noticing that it’s taking more time than usual for the water to drain from your kitchen or bathroom appliances, it could be due to a blocked, deteriorating or collapsed sewer line.

Decreased water pressure, increased water bills

Ultimately, if you’re dealing with a broken water line, there’s going to be a spike in costs as you’re unknowingly using and wasting water! It’s escaping before it makes it to your faucet and leaking somewhere. It’s our job to work out where!

Standing water in the basement or yard, or a more noticeably green and lush patch of grass

If water is gathering in one spot – where it shouldn’t be – this is a symptom of a compromised sewer or water line leaking underground. Particularly lush looking grass could unfortunately be a sign that it’s receiving more water than elsewhere, and you have a potential break on your hands.

Water pooling or damp patches on the floor

A blocked pipe will slowly but surely make itself known by creating leaks in various different places. These can often result in damp patches like the one pictured – if you spy one of these developing, don’t hesitate to call an expert like us to identify the problem and make repairs before it gets any worse.

Indentations, cracks or sink holes in your yard or foundations

Uneven surfaces and developing sink holes can be a sign of either a water line problem or a sewer issue – in worst case scenarios, both.

The guys did an excellent job fixing our sewer line. I was very impressed with how little damage there was to my front lawn where they excavated. They were very careful to put everything back to where it belonged and compact all the dirt to the original level. The crew was very friendly and informative during the whole process.”

“We discovered the need to replace our sewer pipe shortly after purchasing our first home. A number of plumbers recommended tearing down our garage and digging up the backyard, along with enormous quotes. Discouraged with these initial quotes, we contacted Colin from TerraBurst. Colin viewed the video of our sewer scope, and came by to provide a quote. Following this inspection he offered to perform a pipe-burst at a very reasonable price.

TerraBurst's crew were hard-working and professional. They did a great job of communicating with us throughout the project. They performed a scope after the job was complete and the new sewer pipe looks great. Additionally, TerraBurst's office staff were also exceptionally responsive and helpful. Our backyard was left clean, and we could not be happier.”

“Amazing! This is the first time I have been 100% happy with a contractor. Great workmanship, wonderful customer service and the best price quoted (from 8 different sewer repair/plumbing companies). TerraBurst went FAR beyond my expectations and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Do NOT make any sewer repair decisions until you have received a visit from Colin/TerraBurst.”
