Your sewer line is crucial. It connects you to the waste department of your local area, carries away waste items from your home, and there’s a major issue if you have a problem with the line. How do you know if you need a sewer line replacement service in Hunts Point? Here are four ways to know if a replacement is necessary.
The Age Of The Line
One key component of needing a line replaced is how old the current one is. If it is to a certain age, there is no need to repair the line as you are only putting off the inevitable. It is best to go ahead and replace the system so that you can rest easy knowing it will work.
Smell Of Sewage
If you’re smelling sewage when you walk into your yard, this is a sign there’s something very wrong with the system. It is supposed to be sealed, so you do not know it’s there. However, when the line is cracked or damaged, you’ll start to smell it.
Soggy Backyard
This is yet another sign that something is very wrong with your system. If you’re noticing your yard is soggy and wet when it shouldn’t be, it is time to call in a full-service professional plumber.
The Damage To The Line
In some cases, even in the ones listed above, a repair might be possible. However, the damage to the line is one definite way you can know if a replacement is necessary.

My water heater had developed a slow leak and I called A-List to come check it out. By the time they got here, next day, it had stopped leaking. The service technician advised I just keep an eye on it. It may have been caused by setting it to vacation mode while we were gone for a few weeks. No charge for the service call. I would highly recommend them based on their honesty.
