Cracked Drains
If your drains suffer any kind of damage, it can lead to long-term problems across your property. A cracked drain can be one of the worst things you’ll need to deal with in your home. These fractures can lead to a range of other problems and even cause structural damage to your building’s foundations. A cracked drain is a common problem which can affect all kinds of drainage systems, including:
- Domestic Drains
- Commercial Drain Pipes
- Industrial Sewer Lines
- Infrastructure Drains
Here at Drainage Care, our experienced team can deliver a complete range of repair and replacement services. If you’re suffering from any kind of cracked drain, it is important that you get it repaired as soon as possible. If you choose to ignore a fractured drain pipe, then you could be leaving your home or business vulnerable to serious water damage. These problems can cause a wide range of structural concerns across your property.
What are The Signs of a Cracked Drain?
If your drains become cracked, you should start to notice. A cracked drain will deliver a less reliable and effective service. They can also cause noticeable issues across the rest of your property. Some of the most common signs that one of your drainage pipes has become fractured or otherwise damage are:
Unpleasant Smells – A cracked drain can allow sewage gas and unpleasant smells to fill your home or business. A sanitary sewer should be air-tight, except for the vent stacks. The only time you will smell a sewage scent in your property is when there is a problem with your drains.
In some cases, this scent can rise at various points across your home or business. If the smell is emerging from your drains, then it is more likely to be caused by a blockage than a crack in your drains.
Mould and Damp Problems – The growth of mould or rising damp across your property can be a sign of a cracked drain. A cracked sewage pipe can cause the humidity to rise across your home or business, particularly in the spaces between your walls. This can easily cause mould and damp to grow quickly in vulnerable areas.
Lush Patches in Your Garden – Although it’s hardly a negative if you notice a particularly green and healthy patch in your garden, that can be a bad sign. Sewage acts as a fertiliser due to the nutrients in it. As such, leakage from the crack in your drain pipes can cause plants and grass in your garden to grow quicker.
Waterlogging in Your Garden – If you find a particularly wet or indented area on the exterior of your property, a cracked pipe is likely. The water and waste as it escapes can cause your soil to become waterlogged. As waterlogged soil will expand and shrink, it can easily cause indents to develop in the affected area.
