To get in touch with a professional that is well equipped for sewer repair, be sure to contact us at Bob Oates Sewer & Rooter. Our experts are well-versed and familiar with the most common sewer problems, which we’ll be talking about below.

Leaking or Broken Sewer Pipes

Leaks or breaks often occur due to rusting of pipes or land disturbance such as soil shift, landslides, and excavation. When you suspect you’ve got a leaking or a broken pipe, it’s best to have a trusted plumber in Seattle confirm and fix it right away. This is because substances leaking from sewer pipes can contaminate the land and the nearby underground water sources.

Get in touch with our professionals to replace sewer line that is broken or has numerous leaks.

Clogged Drains

Slow drains and unusual plumbing noises often indicate the presence of clogs in your drain. Clogs are a common sewer problem in many households and commercial properties because of waste products such as accumulated hair, oil, grease, or tree root intrusion in the sewer drains. Our sewer repair services include drain snaking to remove clogs in sewer pipes to improve the efficiency of your sewer drains.

Corroded Pipes

If you have cast iron pipes for your sewage system, be aware that they rust over time, as metals do. Corroded pipes are weak and prone to succumb to frequent leaks and breakages if not replaced in time. Our plumbers can identify rusted pipes through the use of sewer cameras and offer durable sewer line replacement when it is required.

Sewer Backup

When the city sewer line floods due to heavy rainfall, sewage can back up into households. In this case, you need sewer pipe line repair, to fix any pipe damage.
