Drainage issues can be confusing for homeowners. Most people are reluctant to contact the professionals for problems that seem minor. Of course, some problems that seem small can actually be much more serious than they appear. They can also cause quite a bit of damage if they’re not taken care of in a timely manner. If you notice any of the following issues, don’t be shy about calling Milestone for help. We can resolve the following problems, among others.

• Slow Drainage. Fixtures and appliances that drain more slowly than they once did are among the first signs that you may need sewer line repair or replacement. If only one of the drains in your home begins to drain slowly or fails to drain altogether, you may only need drain repairs or replacement. We can fix problems with slow drainage with our repair or replacement services at Milestone.
• Strange Noises. If the fixtures or appliances in your home begin to gurgle more than they used to while draining, you may have a collapsed sewer line. That means you’ll need sewer line replacement. If you notice strange noises accompanied by slow drainage or backups, contact Milestone today!
• Old Sewer Lines: Sewer lines are made to withstand constant use. Depending on what they’re made of, they can last anywhere from 50 years to a century or more. However, if your pipes are old, we can replace them!

Those are a few of the common indications that you may need sewer line repairs or replacement. You may also notice unpleasant smells in or around your home, or the drain in your basement may begin to back up more frequently than usual. If the problem has gone unnoticed for a long time, it may even begin to damage your home’s foundation.
