Should There Be Water in My Sewer Cleanout?

The presence of standing water within a sewer cleanout is typically not a cause for concern. Sewer cleanouts are capped access points strategically located along the sewer line to facilitate cleaning and inspection. A certain level of water accumulation in this cleanout serves as an indication that the drain is functioning properly, creating a water seal that prevents sewer gases from escaping.

Possible Causes of Excess Water

• Heavy Rainfall: During periods of excessive rainfall, water can enter the sewer system through cracks or leaks in the piping, resulting in increased water levels within the cleanout.
• Clogged Drain: If a clog occurs further down the drain, it can obstruct the proper flow of wastewater, causing water to back up into the cleanout.

When to Contact a Professional

While some water in the sewer cleanout is normal, excessive or foul-smelling water warrants professional attention. If the water level rises significantly or if it becomes contaminated with sewage, immediate action is required. Our team of experts at Sewage Cleanup Service can promptly diagnose and resolve the underlying issue, ensuring the safety and sanitation of your property.
