Understanding Sewer Odor Issues

In Shaker Heights, Ohio, sewer odors are a common nuisance, often caused by methane gas build-up in sanitary sewer lines. This gas can emit a sulfur or rotten egg smell, which is not only unpleasant but can also indicate underlying plumbing issues. At Carlong Plumbing, we understand the importance of identifying the root cause of these odors to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for your home or business.

Several factors can contribute to sewer odors. One common cause is dry traps, which occur when fixtures are infrequently used, leading to the evaporation of water that normally blocks sewer gases. This can be easily remedied by running water in unused drains or fixtures to refill the traps. However, if the problem persists, it may indicate more serious issues such as improper installation or the old age of sewer lines. Cracked or rotted metal pipes can allow gases to escape, exacerbating the odor problem.

Accidental damage to sewer vents during home modifications is another potential cause. Such damage can disrupt the proper venting of sewer gases, leading to unpleasant smells. At Carlong Plumbing, we specialize in diagnosing these issues and providing effective solutions. Our team is equipped to handle various challenges, ensuring that your plumbing system functions optimally.

While some homeowners may attempt to address sewer odors themselves, professional intervention is often necessary to fully resolve the issue. Our team at Carlong Plumbing employs advanced techniques, such as smoke testing, to identify leaks. This method involves filling the plumbing system with smoke and observing where it escapes, allowing us to pinpoint the source of the problem accurately.

It’s important to note that our expertise lies in sewer odor removal, not in retrieving dead animals, which can sometimes be mistaken as the source of the smell. By focusing on our specialized services, we ensure that we deliver the most effective solutions for our clients in Shaker Heights.

Bailey came to my home for a clogged kitchen sink. He was polite, professional and very cautious of keeping the area clean. He didn't ask for payment until I was satisfied with the job and even after I paid he double checked to make sure there was nothing else I needed. Along with the top shelf customer care, it was relatively inexpensive compared to the quality of service. I'll definitely call Carlong for all my future plumbing needs.
