If more than one drain in your home backs up at the same time, this likely means you have a clog deep in your main line. You may also notice foul odors coming out of multiple drains. This is a problem that requires immediate attention because it indicates that most of your plumbing system is failing or about to fail on the drain side of the system.

Giveaways of clogs in your drains and plumbing system are:
-Sink, toilet, or shower gurgles when in use
-Foul odors permeate around drains or sinks
-Water flow is restricted when using an outlet or faucet
-Toilet clogs frequently
-Puddles or water damage near plumbing fixtures
-Water drains incredibly slowly as it flows into pipes

If your home is over 20 years old, it is generally a good idea to have the sewer line and drain inspected. If you have tree roots near your sewer line, you may need to have it inspected every few years.
