Need a New Job in the New Year? Harts Services is Hiring! 

Imagine this nightmarish scenario: It’s a normal, run-of-the-mill day, and you begin to go about your regular routine of household chores. You start up your washing machine, and immediately, black, foul-smelling water starts pouring out of your toilet and your shower drain, filling up your bathtub and turning your entire home into an unlivable outhouse!

You freeze, paralyzed with panic, as you watch this disgusting scene unfold. Then, it hits you. You knew your sewer line was old. You knew it probably needed to be replaced. However, you didn’t want to face a big plumbing bill, and so you put it off.

This whole disaster could have been prevented, but it’s too late. You can’t turn back time. What

You might think the ugly picture we painted earlier in this post can’t happen to you. But if you live in a home that was built before the 1980s—before PVC piping was introduced and most sewer lines were made from tile, clay, cast iron, concrete, and orangeburg—you are at risk for a sewer line collapse. Those older materials are more susceptible to deterioration, and pipes that eclipse the 50-year mark are basically just a catastrophe waiting to happen.

When sewer lines collapse, they allow the surrounding soil to rush in and block the flow of waste coming out of your home. This results in the stomach-turning backup and overflow we described, and if you were afraid of your plumbing repair bills

 the collapse, now you’re looking at additional property damage that could reach tens of thousands of dollars!

In other words, it definitely pays to be proactive when it comes to 

. The team at Harts Services is here to help Tacoma area homeowners avoid disaster by fixing problems with the sewer drain before they escalate.

Here are some common early warning signs of sewer line trouble that should not be ignored.

Tips for Handling a Sewer Line Catastrophe

Here in Tacoma, WA, home to your friends at 

, we’ve come to associate the arrival of fall with some potentially messy plumbing issues caused by good old Mother Nature.

We’re talking about tree roots infiltrating pipes and causing sewer system backups.

Roots are amazing things. Their mission to keep trees alive leads them to grow and travel in search of water, and they don’t let anything stand in their way. Roots can grow as big as seven times the height of a tree, and they’ll blast through the joints — or the sides — of underground pipes to access moisture and nutrients they need to feed that tree.

As you can imagine, this happens quite a bit in the summer when the weather is dry. Then, when fall brings heavy rain, roots blocking drainage pipes can cause water and sewage to back up into homes throughout the region. The problem only gets worse over time, as the tangled web of roots catches toilet paper, hair, and other debris to create a denser clog.

What can you do to prevent this? Before we talk about a potential remedy, watch this quick video to identify a few of the warning signs of tree root infiltration.

Now that you know how to spot a potential tree root situation before it wreaks havoc on your home, here’s our advice for addressing the issue: Call 

 for a full video inspection of your sewer system!

Our team of experts will visit your property and perform a professional video inspection, running a camera down your sewer lines to get a clear picture of what’s going on down there. Whatever blockages we spot, whether it’s tree roots, corrosion, or sediment buildup, we can decide whether high-pressure hydro-jetting will fix the issue or if other repairs are needed.

If tree roots have completely broken through the lines, we can replace your sewer piping. Swapping older, clay tile pipes out for PVC, which is harder for roots to penetrate, could be a suitable option to prevent issues in the future. We will be able to give you a professional recommendation based on the results of our video camera inspection.

Don’t let tree roots mess up your life this fall! For more information about how tree roots can affect your sewer system, or schedule a video camera inspection anywhere in the Tacoma area, contact our experts by 

Beware of Tree Root Intrusions! What You Need to Know About This Common Fall Plumbing Problem

Pipes are the arteries of your home. When they’re in bad shape, the entire house is impacted.

It’s easy to forget that the water you use for drinking, cooking, cleaning, and bathing, travels through a delicate infrastructure within your home before reaching its final destination. When that infrastructure begins to age, and you neglect to take care of it, the consequences impact your entire living space — Just as compromised arteries can damage your entire body. In this article, we briefly explain why it’s so important to keep your pipes young and fresh.

When you neglect to maintain your plumbing over the years, you increase the possibility of a plumbing emergency. If you refuse to replace pipes as they exhibit signs of aging, your entire family will suffer the consequences. Your pipes will begin to leak near corroded joints, and water will damage your home as a result. This will make the house 

You may also begin to notice an unpleasant taste when drinking tap water — that would be rust flowing through your corroded pipes. Failing to repipe your home as a cost-saving measure is simply futile because you can’t put a price on the health and safety of your family.

You might be wondering: “How do I know when it’s time to replace my pipes?” That’s a tricky question because, while there are many warning signs you can look out for, it’s ideal to repipe your home before the bad stuff starts happening. However, it is still important to be able to recognize outdated piping, so we outlined three red flags that foreshadow the end of elderly pipes in the brief video below.

To find out if your aging pipes should be put to bed, 

. It’s always hard to say goodbye, and it almost feels wrong to replace your old friends right away. But sometimes it’s better to move on and start a fresh relationship with a brand new set of sturdy, reliable pipes. Enlist the services of Harts Services when you feel
