Winter is a time for holiday festivities, spending more time indoors, and, for some people, vacation. But it’s not a time to completely forget about sewer repair in Alpharetta, GA. Sewer Pro wants to remind you about some of the common sewer-related issues that tend to occur during winter.

TREE ROOTS SEEKING MOISTURE

Even in winter, tree roots underground are still active. They typically dig deeper in search of moisture, which means roots could creep into your sewer lines during the winter months. Fortunately, there are sewer line repair methods we use that can restore underground pipes without excavation.

FROZEN SEWER VENTS

Sewer vents allow gas to escape from your sewer lines and they regulate air pressure. Cold temperatures in the Alpharetta, GA, area, however, could cause your sewer vents to freeze during winter. You may not need sewer replacement because of this issue, but it can be dangerous because of the sewer gas that could get into your living spaces. Contact us ASAP if you are noticing:

• Slowly flushing toilets
• Gurgling sounds coming from your drains
• People in your household suddenly experiencing headaches, dizziness, or drowsiness

BAD SEWER ODORS

We also recommend reaching out to us about sewer repair services if you are noticing foul sewer odors. Such odors can actually be worse in the winter months because of downdrafts and the fact that most people keep their windows closed – which means less ventilation and fresh air circulation.
