WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A MAIN DRAIN AND A SEWER LINE?
While both main drains and sewer lines transport wastewater away from your commercial property, there are critical differences between the two systems. Main drains are located in the walls and floors of your property, while sewer line drains are located outside underground. Five Star Leak Detection is an expert at locating both main drain and sewer lines using a state of the art camera into the sewer system thru the roof sewer vent pipe.

A malfunctioning sewer system often includes the following symptoms:
Sewer Odor:
A sewer smell in your property is most likely caused by a buildup of sewer gas in either the plumbing or venting system in your property. A dried out p-trap is a common reason for sewer odors. P-traps that are dried out no longer prevent sewer gas from escaping your pipes. A possible fix is to pour water down your drains.
Lawn:
a lush, green lawn is a landlord's dream. But believe it or not, a rich, green patch of grass can sometimes be a bad thing. Sewer lines or plumbing leaks can cause wet spots in your yard, providing excess water for your plants and grass to absorb. Sewer line blockages: sewer line blockages are usually caused by a broken sewer pipe or tree roots that have grown into the pipes. Main sewer pipes are at least six inches in diameter, so a hair clog or other minor issues are unlikely to be the cause. If you live in an older commercial property, then the sewer lines can become brittle with age.
