About Bryn Mawr-Lakeridge Water & Sewer District in Seattle, WA

Yes, we do. A common cause in our area is grease buildup. We can perform a sewer line inspection from the cleanout on your property line to determine if the slow drain is due to a blockage in the public main we maintain or within your private lateral line. This inspection helps pinpoint responsibility, so you know whether to call us or a private plumber, saving you time and unnecessary expense.

Absolutely. Pipe joint leaks are a frequent issue in Seattle's older plumbing systems. Our inspection service is designed specifically to locate the exact source of such leaks. We will inspect the connection at the property line to identify whether the leak is in the public water service line (our responsibility) or on your side of the connection (the homeowner's responsibility). Getting this inspection first is the best step to resolve the issue correctly.

First, call the Bryn Mawr-Lakeridge Water & Sewer District immediately. We will dispatch a crew to perform a priority inspection of the public sewer main in your area. If our inspection finds the public line is clear, the issue is likely within your private plumbing, such as a root intrusion or severe grease clog. This quick inspection helps us rule out a widespread problem and directs you to the appropriate next steps, whether it's our repair or you needing to contact a licensed drain cleaning service.
