Expert Service for Sewer Lines in South Charleston
It is advisable not to ignore pools of water on parts of your property. Sometimes, the accumulation of water is a sign of drainage problems. If there is nowhere for the water to drain, water will pool on the driveway and yard.
However, if there are signs of indentation in your yard, there may be a cause for concern. Uneven soil and patches of leafy plants are a symptom of a leaking drain line. In such cases, it is wise to consult a plumber to check your plumbing.
Other common signs that your sewer lines are failing or need professional cleaning include:
- A foul smell from the drains
- Pooling of water on parts of your property
- Gurgling noises from the pipes
- A spike in water bills
If sewer lines are neglected, corrosion can quickly build up in the drainage. Corrosion can weaken joints, allowing your piping to sag. When that happens, debris sits on the lowest part of the pipe. If there is extensive rusting in the piping, you may notice the flow of water reducing.
Weak sewer lines are also vulnerable to tree root infiltration. Roots tend to grow towards the source of water. If they’ve broken into your plumbing, cutting-edge tools may be necessary to resolve the issue. Our team uses advanced video inspection tools to inspect sewer lines and locate exact leaks, cracks, and clogs.

Sewer Line Repair & Replacement FAQs
In Kanawha and Putnam counties, sewer charges are calculated based on your monthly water consumption. A sudden, unexplained spike in your sewer bill often indicates a hidden underground leak, continuous pipe fissure, or mainline blockage that requires professional plumbing evaluation.
-
Water Usage Metering: Local utility providers calculate sewer fees directly from your total monthly water volume.
-
Bill Spike Indicators: Unusually high bills signal that water is escaping somewhere in your system before reaching drains.
-
Diagnostic Evaluations: Mullen Plumbing, Heating, and Cooling performs video camera pipe inspections to pinpoint underground leaks before costs escalate.
Call (304) 744-3221 to schedule a sewer line diagnostic evaluation.
Clear signs that a main sewer line requires immediate repair or hydro-jet cleaning include multi-fixture backups, gurgling commodes, persistent sewage odors, and soggy lawn patches. Mullen Plumbing, Heating, and Cooling uses high-definition camera technology to pinpoint pipe breaks and tree root intrusions fast.
-
Multi-Fixture Backups: Sewage or wastewater rising into bathtubs or showers when running sinks or washing machines.
-
Foul Sewage Odors: Rotten egg or sewer gas smells escaping from indoor drains or around your property foundation.
-
Yard Sinkholes & Wet Patches: Unusually green, lush grass or soggy soil over your buried sewer pipe line.
Prevent sewer line backups by keeping wipes and grease out of your plumbing, using mesh drain strainers, and scheduling routine pipe inspections every 1 to 2 years. Preventative care stops debris from hardening into costly main line blockages.
-
Never Flush Non-Flushables: Keep wipes (including “flushable” wipes), paper towels, feminine products, and hair out of commodes.
-
Avoid FOG Buildup: Dispose of fats, oils, and cooking grease in the trash rather than kitchen sinks.
-
Schedule Biennial Inspections: Have plumbers run a video camera down your main line every 1–2 years to catch tree root invasion early. Join the Mullen Advantage Club to simplify preventative maintenance schedules.
