Offensive odors coming from the sewer lines in your place of business are hardly something that you want your clients and visitors to encounter when entering your company's site. These odors can reduce the appeal of your building and eventually cause health risks from breathing the gas fumes. Boss Plumbing specializes in commercial plumbing and helps Los Angeles businesses make sure this doesn't happen to them.
What Is Causing Sewer Odors in Your Commercial Building?
The release of sewer line gases into your building is a warning sign that something needs fixing. If the problem is not identified, you risk further damage when the sewer water backs up into your building. Overflowing drains can cause immense damage to walls, floors, and every area of your structure.
Sewer line odors present the possibility of several different issues. It is critical to call a commercial plumber to identify the problem and fix it quickly and efficiently.
Who is Responsible for my Sewage Pipes?
If a property owner sees their sewage backing up into their business, they must call a commercial plumber immediately. This plumber may run a sewer camera through the sewer lines to get a first-hand picture of the problem. The property owner is responsible for fixing the sewer line up to the main sewer line. The city or county is responsible for the mainline. For instance, if the tiles collapse on the sewer line before the mainline, the owner is responsible for all costs to fix the line. Another example is if the property sewer line shows no problems, but the plumber finds a blockage in the mainline, then the city or county must pay for and fix this part of the line.
Often, business owners believe that the problems that develop anywhere in a sewer line are the city or county's responsibility, which is a common mistake that property owners make. The property owner is responsible for repairing and maintaining upper and lower lateral sewer lines to where the property line meets the main city line.
