Conversely, in the event of a clog or a back-up, your sinks and toilets may drain excessively slowly, if at all.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Weird Smells.<\/strong> There\u2019s no way around it: sewage creates bad smells. If you detect some in your yard or somewhere else where they shouldn\u2019t be, you know you have a problem.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Puddles Where They Shouldn\u2019t Be.<\/strong> Similarly, a leaking sewer pipe can create odd puddles in your yard, or possibly strange divots as well.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Greener Grass.<\/strong> Sewage can act as a natural fertilizer and a leak may actually make the nearby grass and plant life more healthy. If you suddenly spot a patch of shrubbery in the yard that\u2019s much greener than the surrounding plants, it could be a sewer leak that\u2019s feeding it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Higher Bill.<\/strong> Leaking water means wasted water, which you\u2019re paying for even if you don\u2019t use it. An inexplicable spike in your water bill could mean that your sewer line is wasting water.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>With our skill in trenchless technology, Reliance Plumbing can solve the trouble with your sewer line.
