What’s Going On Underground? Common Sewer Problems
Age, shifting soil, and years of use can all take a toll on sewer piping. Here are the issues we most often uncover in San Carlos homes:
- Grease & scale buildup: deposits narrow the pipe and slow everything down.
- Root intrusion: tiny openings invite roots that expand and cause repeat blockages.
- Offsets & corrosion: ground movement or worn materials lead to leaks and backups.
- Collapsed or bellied sections: wastewater escapes or settles in low spots, demanding targeted repair or replacement.
We pair high-definition sewer camera inspections with hydrojetting, sectional spot repairs, or trenchless replacement to clear the line and keep it clear.
Red Flags Your Sewer Line Needs Attention
Don’t wait for a full backup. Give us a call if you notice:
- Gurgling or sewer odors at fixtures or outdoors
- Multiple slow drains or frequent whole-home clogs
- Backups in lower-level showers, tubs, or floor drains
- Unusual wet spots, greener grass strips, or soft soil in the yard
- Rising water bills or signs of leakage
Early diagnosis saves money and prevents property damage. Captain Plumber will document findings and map a clear plan.

Answers to Top Questions
Do you use a camera to confirm the issue?
Yes—video inspection lets us see inside the line, verify the cause, and mark the exact repair point so work is precise and cost-effective.
How will you repair a damaged or deteriorated pipe?
Depending on the condition and access, we may hydrojet and spot-repair, perform trenchless pipe replacement, or—when necessary—use traditional excavation for a full replacement.
