Heavy Plumbing Issues to Watch for During Rainfall
Excess rain can cause major plumbing problems
that people dont notice until its too late.
Thats why it is crucial to learn and understand
how heavy rainfall creates plumbing issues and to
keep your home working well and safe you need to
make sure what signs might indicate a serious
plumbing problem.

How Heavy Rain Causes Plumbing Problems In Your
Household?
5
When its raining cats and dogs outside, it can
sometimes wreck your drainage system. Water tends
to collect in the low spots and hollows across
our property during rain and it becomes a
headache when its overflowing from your sewers
and chambers. Flooding of drains also indicated
that there is a lack of proper drainage on the
property. This issue ultimately leads to
rainwater flooding into your home and causing
serious plumbing damage to your property.
OVERFLOWED DRAINS AND SEWERS
6
Sometimes, heavy and continuous rainfall can
cause the soil around your house to shift or
move, and when a foundation shift happens, it may
result in a pull on a drain line, causing a
separation, crack, or misalignment in the line
that would otherwise allow air to enter the
pipes. This may result in the drain pipes flowing
more slowly and producing that distinct gurgling
sound. This damage may seem very normal and it
may get neglected by homeowners, but in reality,
it is much more dangerous and should be taken
care of as early as possible.
SHIFTING HOUSE FOUNDATION

Regularly maintaining your gutter and cleaning
your downspout pipes prevent debris from clogging
and Blocked Drains Brisbane. Both gutters and
downspouts play an important role in leading the
water away from your house. Trash or debris that
flows into your house due to heavy rainfall, like
leaves, soil, sticks, and other trash, might get
stuck into your sewer system and cause your
drains to choke, causing serious plumbing
problems for you.
DEBRIS CLOGGING AND DOWNSPOUTS
8
Extensive rain can cause pressure on the pipes
that are underground, and due to this high
pressure cracks and breaks can occur in the
pipes. If the water in your sink stinks and looks
or even tastes unpleasant this usually means that
your pipe is cracked. Reflecting on the issue
mentioned above, it is recommended to maintain
the condition of your plumbing and consult with
professional plumbers periodically.

clogging in the drains, gutters, and downspouts,

experiences heave rainfall, you need to contact a
plumber to have your pipes inspected.
Install a Utility Equipment As utility

helping pump water out of your basement and
