What to do if there is a leak in the sewer? How to solve a sewer leak

To see who is responsible, the first thing to do is to confirm the cause of the main pipe leakage.

Division of responsibility: If there is a water leak due to decoration, it is the responsibility of the decoration company. If it is not the water leakage caused by the decoration company, it is the property responsibility, and if there is no 2-year warranty period for the main pipeline, the property can find the construction unit to pursue responsibility.

If the warranty period has passed, only the property can compensate for it.

You can hire a housing appraisal agency and invite the property to be present to identify the renovation pipeline, determine the specific responsible person, and then ask for compensation. Article 51 of the "Property Management Regulations" water supply, power supply, gas supply, heating supply, communications, cable television and other units.

It shall bear the responsibility for the maintenance and maintenance of relevant pipelines and facilities and equipment in the property management area in accordance with the law. Where the units provided for in the preceding paragraph temporarily occupy or excavate roads or sites due to the need for repairs or maintenance, they shall promptly restore them to their original state.

Treatment method of leakage of main sewer pipe in bathroom:

1. You can check the degree of water leakage, if it is only a slight water leakage, you can use glass glue to bond it on the leakage position.

2. If there is water leakage at the joint of the pipeline, you can use glass glue to bond it at the joint, and after the glass glue solidifies, wrap a layer of waterproof tape on the outside to play a role in secondary protection.

3. If the water pipe is broken, you can replace it with a new water pipe, cut the broken water pipe with a cutting machine, and then replace a water pipe with the same size and specification, and connect it together with a joint.

If there is a leak in the main sewer pipe at home, it is also necessary to repair it according to the actual situation, and you can also find a professional maintenance worker to help repair it.

So what to do about a drain leak? What are the ways to repair a sewer leak? In fact, to solve this problem, we must first find out what the cause of the sewer leakage is, some are only slight leaks, and some are a large amount of water seepage.

The following is an introduction to some common sewer leakage judgment methods and maintenance methods.

Causes of sewer leakage and repair tips.

1. Causes of sewer leakage.

There are many reasons for sewer leakage, if you don't know where the cause is, it is best to find a professional test, so as to ** the problem of water leakage. Generally, there are two reasons, one is due to water seepage on the ground, and the other is a broken sewer pipe.

1. Damage to the sewer pipe: For example, the floor drain, the interface of the toilet, and the upper and lower sewer pipes are damaged, and the inspection methods are:

Water pipes. If the water supply pipe leaks, it may show continuous and uninterrupted leakage, and sometimes the leakage is increasing. If the main valve of the water pipe is closed, the amount of leakage is immediately reduced.

Sewer pipes. If there is a leak in the sewer pipe, we need to observe it and keep a record of the leakage. The method of closing the sail of the test book is very simple, we only need to open all the faucets in the bathroom, flush the toilet many times and pour water into the floor drain, if the leakage increases, it means that the pipe is damaged and leaking.

2. Surface leakage.

The surface leakage detection method is very simple, and it is generally manifested when taking a bath, mopping the floor, or when the ground and wall are drenched and stagnant, and the leakage can be determined as surface leakage.

Second, sewer leakage repair skills.

Generally, there are more sewer leaks in toilets, and there are many pipes, and the water vapor is relatively large. Then at this time, you can only plane tiles, change pipes and pipes, and redo waterproofing. If it's just surface water seepage, you can use the following methods to repair it:

1. Treatment of the grassroots level. Dust, oil, and stagnant water are treated cleanly and kept dry;

2. The wall of the general toilet and the hail surface of the prefecture can be drenched with water, so spray the penetrating waterproof agent on the surface, and remember not to miss the spray;

3. After the waterproofing agent is dry, all tile joints, damages and defects should be filled with waterproof paste;

4. The weak places are reinforced with plastic steel mud edge sealing, especially the corners, wall edges, pipe roots, etc.

The leakage repair method at the sewer pipe interface is as follows:

1. First use a small hacksaw to see off the leaking place, the saw edge should be flat, then gently polish the newly exposed port with sandpaper, and then wipe the port clean with a clean cloth.

2. Then apply the glue on the port, dry it for a while, and in the process of waiting, you can apply the glue in the "bamboo" joint, and after the glue on the port is dry, connect the port with the "bamboo", and rotate it repeatedly until it is firm.

3. Finally, apply glue to the joints to ensure that there is no leakage.

Causes of leaking sewer pipes

1. The sewer joint is leaking

The water pipes at home have been used for a long time, and there will be some problems more or less. If there is a leak in the water pipe, it is possible that the upper or lower connection of the water pipe is faulty.

At this time, we need to repair it as soon as possible, you can first cut off the broken end of the water pipe, and then use a new water pipe to align with the original plastic water pipe joint, so that the replacement water pipe can be put into the original water pipe, like two pipes crossing, and then apply glue so that the two water pipes can be tightly bonded together.

2. The joint is loose

In many cases, if there is a water leakage, it is not necessarily that the pipe is cracked, but it may also be that the joint part of the pipe has been loose for a long time. If this is the case, we need to check whether the plastic water connection has been damaged and can be used again.

If it can still be used, then we can directly tighten it with equipment tools; If there are only some slight cracks, then we can repair it with glue, or repair it with cement, waterproofing agent, waterproof glue and other products; If there are cracks or damage in the water pipe joints, then we need to buy a new one and install it.

How to deal with kitchen sewer leakage:

1. First of all, turn off the main gate of tap water, find a professional to investigate, and after finding the leakage point, you need to punch holes in the ground for maintenance.

2. During maintenance, wipe the leaking pipe, repair the leaking place with glue, and then wrap it with waterproof tape.

3. Next, open the sluice gate to test the water, observe for about 10 to 20 minutes, and after there is no water seepage, it can be sealed.

Tips for unclogging sewer pipes

1. When the pipeline is blocked, you can pour the pipeline dredging agent into the sewer pipe, if there is no water in the pipe, you should pour half a cup of clean water into the water pipe, wait for about 20 minutes, and then flush the pipe with a large amount of water. You can also put some caustic soda at the sewer pipe and pour a pot of boiling water into it, as long as the sewer pipe is dredged.

2. If the sewer pipe is blocked with some oil, pour boiling water directly into the sewer pipe, or you can buy some concentrated sulfuric acid, which can also play a good dredging effect by pouring these into the sewer pipe. Or go to the store to buy the powder to clean the pipes, it can be said that these ingredients are also lime powder, which can also play a good pipe cleaning effect.

The sewer pipe has been used for a long time and is prone to water leakage, and the treatment methods are as follows:

1. If the leakage is at the tail of the pipe, and there are serious cracks. You need to use a tool to see off all this part first, then connect a new section of sewer pipe to this part, and use the joint to connect it with the old water pipe and fix it.

2. If the leakage is at the joint, and it is only a little bit of water leakage, it is not very serious. You can check the cause of the water leakage first, and if it is caused by a loose joint, you can tighten it directly. However, if it is caused by damaged joints, you can replace them with new ones.

3. If the surface crack is caused, and the crack is not very large. In this case, you can repair it with glue or cloth tape to clean the cracked surface, and then apply an appropriate amount of glue to dry before continuing to use, or wrap it around the area with a cloth tape.

4. Before installing the water pipe, it is necessary to estimate the amount and estimate the approximate amount needed, so as to prevent the reality of material waste or lack of purchase. At the same time, for the renovation of second-hand houses, it is necessary to replace all the water pipes inside to prevent the problem of pipe leakage in the future.

5. When installing the water pipe, it is necessary to check its quality and accessories to see if there is leakage or damage. It is very important that the water pipes and fittings used are strong and must be tested before use.

The solutions to sewer leakage include plugging king, waterproof tape, and glass glue.

1. If there is a slight leakage or seepage in the sewer, you can use the plugging king to repair it. If the sewer leakage is not bad, but only a slight leak or seepage, then there is no need to make a big move, just use the plugging king to repair it, and use the plugging king to evenly apply the water seepage place, and after a day or so.

2. If the PVC sewer pipe is leaking, you can use waterproof tape to plug the gap. When there is a leak in the sewer pipe of PVC material, you can use waterproof tape to plug the gap, pay attention to the quality of waterproof tape must be very good. However, if the PVC sewer pipe is seriously leaking and the gap has been clearly seen, then the PVC pipe can only be replaced, and only one section can be replaced.

3. If the cast iron sewer pipe is leaking, it needs to be coated with glass glue. For old houses, most of them still use cast iron sewer pipes, which leak water, which is very tricky to deal with, because cast iron cannot be welded, but only leaks more and more. If the cast iron sewer pipe is leaking, then you can use glass glue to apply it, and it is basically no problem.

Causes of sewer leaks

1. It may be because of the age, the pipeline has aged, resulting in the phenomenon of leakage of the sewer pipe, such a situation is best to replace the new sewer pipe can be solved.

2. If the sewer pipe is caused by poor contact between the joints, it is also one of the reasons for water leakage, if it is caused by the gaps between the pipes, it is recommended to use the adhesive glue of the special sewer pipe to repair; If it is caused by poor contact between pipes, it is recommended to use professional tools to tighten it.
