Sewer Line Issues!

  • Before purchasing a home, it's essential to inspect the crawlspace—especially when it comes to the sewer line. A bowed sewer line can lead to various costly issues. Instead of inspecting the crawlspace on your own, consider calling M-C Inspections at 888-201-1726 or 661-330-1009 for a professional home inspection in Kern, SLO, and Lake Counties, California.


    Implications of a Bowed Sewer Line:


    1. **Blockages:** A bowed sewer line can create areas where debris and waste accumulate, leading to clogs and backups.

    2. **Reduced Flow:** The bowing can impede the normal flow of wastewater, increasing the risk of overflows and sewage leaks.

    3. **Structural Damage:** Continuous pressure on the bowed section can lead to cracks or breaks in the pipe, necessitating costly repairs or replacements.

    4. **Health Hazards:** Leaks or backups can pose serious health risks due to exposure to sewage and contaminants.

    5. **Increased Maintenance Costs:** Homeowners may face higher maintenance costs due to frequent repairs and inspections associated with a bowed sewer line.


    Don’t risk costly surprises—reach out to M-C Inspections for peace of mind.
