Water pooling around your drains.

If you notice water pooling around your drains, it could be a sign that your drain pipes are damaged and need to be repaired. This is especially true if the water is coming from inside your home, as this could indicate a leak in your drain pipe. If you see water pooling around your outside drains, it could also be a sign of damage, but it could also just mean that there is an obstruction in your drain pipe. Either way, it’s best to have a professional take a look at your drain pipes to determine the cause of the problem and make the necessary repairs.

Constant or intermittent dripping sound coming from your drain pipes.

If you hear a constant or intermittent dripping sound coming from your drain pipes, chances are there is a leak somewhere in the system. This can waste a lot of water and increase your water bill, so it’s important to have the leak fixed as soon as possible. A leaking drain pipe can also lead to other problems, such as mould growth or flooding, so it’s definitely worth getting it fixed sooner rather than later.

Your drains are backed up, and water is not draining properly.

If you notice that your drains are backed up or that water isn’t draining properly, this is another sign that there may be damage to your drain pipes. This type of damage can often be caused by tree roots growing into the sewer line or by objects becoming lodged in the pipe (such as toys or jewellery). If you think there may be something blocking your drain pipe, don’t try to remove it yourself; instead, call a professional plumber who will be able to safely remove whatever is causing the drain blockage and make any necessary repairs.

You notice water backing up in your shower drain.

This is definitely a sign that your drains are damaged and in need of repair! If you see water backing up in your shower drain, it means that there is a blockage preventing the water from draining properly. This can lead to all sorts of problems, including flooding and sewage backup. Don’t wait until it’s too late – call a drainage engineer as soon as possible to have them take a look at your drains.

There is sewage backup in your home.

If there is sewage backup in your home, it means that the sewers are backed up and unable to handle the wastewater coming from your home. This can cause all sorts of problems, including overflows, backups into homes, and even health hazards due to exposure to raw sewage. If you see or suspect sewage backup in your home, don’t hesitate to call a professional for assistance – it’s better to be safe than sorry.

You notice that your fixtures are leaking.

Leaking fixtures are another sign that something is wrong with your drains. If you notice that any of your sinks, toilets, showers or other fixtures are leaking, it could be an indication of damage to the pipes leading to and from those fixtures. Once again, this is something best left to the professionals – so if you see leaks, give us a call right away and we’ll repair your drains.

Your exterior drains are blocked.

If you have gutters or other exterior drains that seem to be constantly clogging up, it could be a sign that they’re damaged and need to be replaced or repaired. Clogged exterior drains can lead to water build-up around your foundation, which can eventually cause structural damage to your home.

Water is seeping through cracks in your foundation.

One of the most obvious signs that your drains are damaged and need to be repaired is when water begins to seep through cracks in your foundation. This is usually a sign that there is some sort of blockage in your drains that is causing water to build up and eventually leak out through any cracks or weak spots in your foundation. If you notice this happening, it’s important to have a professional come take a look as soon as possible so they can determine the cause of the problem and make the necessary repairs. A CCTV drain survey can help identify whether there is a blockage in your drain that could be causing water to seep through the foundations.

Mould or mildew growth around your drains.

Another sign that something might be wrong with your drains is if you start to notice mould or mildew growth around them. This could be an indication that there is moisture build-up inside the drain pipes which provides the perfect environment for mould or mildew to thrive. If left unchecked, this problem can quickly become worse and lead to even more serious damage so it’s best to have a professional take a look as soon as possible if you notice this issue starting to develop.

Unusual odours coming from your drains.

If you start to notice unusual odours coming from any of your drains, this could also be an indication that something isn’t quite right. In many cases, these odours are caused by trapped debris inside the drain pipes which can beginning rotting and emitting unpleasant smells. If you catch this problem early enough, simply having the drain pipes cleaned out by a professional should do the trick but if it’s left for too long, you may end up needing more extensive repairs done.
