Warning signs
Gurgling toilets, sewage smells, water rising in a tub or shower and a soggy patch in the yard.
Roots
Street trees and yard trees send roots into cracked joints, especially in older parts of town.
Rainy season
Winter storms soak the ground and let water into broken pipes, which can overload them.
Camera inspection
A camera shows exactly where the damage is.
Spot repairs
A single break can be dug up and fixed.
Trenchless options
Lining or pipe bursting replaces long runs with less digging.
Cleanouts
A cleanout near the house makes clearing the line easier and cheaper.
Earthquakes
Ground movement can shift older pipe joints; a camera check after a strong quake is reasonable.
