Sewer gas odors?
A clogged drain, a sewer pipe crack, a loose toilet, no water in a sink or floor drain, or even a blocked drain vent can cause sewer gas. While sewer gas isn’t dangerous in small amounts, it can contribute to sewer gas toxicity at high levels.
So, when your comfort goes rogue, don’t dial a rookie. Call the crew with a history as long as your drain line is deep.
For service above the rest, call PDM plumbers to locate and remove the sewer gas problem.

Sewer & Cleaning Services FAQ
What causes a clogged sewer drain line?
- Over time, hair, soap scum, grease, food scraps, and other debris can build up in the pipes, leading to a gradual blockage.
- Using the garbage disposal incorrectly can also introduce large food particles that can cause clogs.
- Flushing items like wipes, paper towels, and even certain hygiene products can solidify in the pipes and cause blockages.
- Using the toilet drain as a “garbage can” will clog a sewer drain line! Only toilet paper should go down the toilets.
How to know if drain is clogged?
- Slow drainage is one of the most obvious signs. Water takes an unusually long time to drain, even if it does drain at all.
- You might also notice gurgling or bubbling sounds coming from the drain.
- A bad smell or foul odor. A persistent unpleasant odor coming from the drain, often described as a sewage smell, is a sign of a buildup of organic matter or debris.
- Water backing up: Water may begin to pool or back up into the sink, tub, or shower instead of draining properly.
- Changes in water pressure: A sudden decrease in water pressure, especially in the faucet or shower, could be related to a blocked drain.
- Visible blockage: You might be able to see debris or obstructions in the drain itself.

How to clean a clogged main sewer line?
There are two ways a plumber will decide to clean out a main sewer line clog:
- Common drain plunger can work for dislodging a clog near the drain opening. Plungers and bladders use air or water pressure to force clogs out.
- Rooter drain snake, auger – The most common way to unclog a drain, a snake uses different rotating attachment heads to loosen and remove obstructions in the line. There is a handheld snake or wiggle stick and a powerful motorized drain rod.
- Hydro-jetting – This method uses high-pressure water to clear out a line.
- Liquid drain cleaner can damage the toilet: The caustic chemicals in drain cleaners can react with the toilet’s porcelain, generating heat that can cause cracking.
What is a drain or main drain house clean-out?
A main drain house clean-out is a pipe that is located outside of the home. They appear to be a capped pipe sticking up out of the ground about 4 – 6 inches. The clean-outs provide access to your main sewer line and will be accessed if your line is clogged. To learn more or to schedule a plumbing service, contact the experts at PDM today!
