Another Drain Failure in a Relatively New Home
We're currently repairing a drain line in a home that's only 5 years old. Unfortunately, the homeowner reported the issue to the builder, who attributed it to "settling" and declined to make repairs.
After investigating the problem, we found conditions that indicate the drain system was not installed correctly, resulting in a failure that should not typically occur in a home of this age.
No homeowner should be dealing with major drain repairs just a few years after moving into a new home.
The good news? Amarillo's Drain Experts are on the job. Our team is identifying the root cause, making the necessary repairs, and helping this homeowner get their plumbing system functioning the way it should have from day one.
If you're experiencing recurring drain problems, slow drains, sewer odors, or backups—especially in a newer home—don't assume it's normal settling. A professional inspection can reveal what's really going on beneath the surface.
