Main Water Line Clogs

Main water line clogs rarely happen as often as main sewer line clogs, but they still occur. Less water can get through when something blocks your main water line, so your water pressure drops. Such a clog, left unchecked, can cause severe water damage in your home, costly repairs, or even the need for a water line replacement.

However, if you catch the problem early enough and call our plumbing experts, you may minimize the cost of main water line repair and avoid replacement altogether.

Clogging needs special attention because you can’t see a clog by just looking down the drain. Blockage in the main water line may force water to find different ways to seep through, often resulting in leaks.

Remember, occasional clogs sometimes happen, but if you regularly notice any red flags, you likely have a clogged main water line. To stop a main water line clog before it escalates into a costly maintenance issue, keep an eye out for the following warning signs that you need main water line repair:

A rise in the water level

Gurgling noises

Bubbling water

Multiple malfunctioning drains

Consistent backups

Strange odors

Dirt and dust particles in the running water

Given the significance of your main water line, you need to contact a professional immediately if you notice any of the signs above. You can’t solve a main water line clog as you would clog drainpipes by simply pouring a chemical drain cleaner down your sink. Main water line clogs require careful handling because you don’t want to contaminate your water supply. Contact us for a professional main water line repair.

What Damages Water Lines?

Pipes don’t last forever — water line damage is inevitable. Certain things can speed up water line damage, like installation errors, poor fixtures, underground movements, and more. If your home still runs off of water lines that have seen better days, you can expect them to develop issues.

Your water line can also sustain damage due to:

High internal water pressure

Tree root intrusions

Ground freezing and thawing

Wear and tear

Corrosion

Internal mineral buildup
