Second Creek is a beautiful, established community tucked away in Mobile — but along with mature trees and older homes comes an increased risk of plumbing issues, especially underground.
At Adams Plumbing & Drain Company, we help Second Creek homeowners stay ahead of costly sewer and drain problems before they turn into major disasters.
Here’s what you need to watch for if you live in Second Creek.
🚩 1. Tree Root Intrusions in Sewer Lines
One of the biggest issues facing homeowners in Second Creek is tree roots breaking into aging sewer lines.
Signs you may have a tree root problem:
- Gurgling noises from toilets or tubs
- Water backing up in sinks or showers
- Slow drains throughout the house
Roots grow toward the moisture around tiny cracks in sewer pipes — and once inside, they can clog the entire line.
If you’re seeing early signs, it’s time to call a professional.

🚩 2. Sewer Line Dips and Sagging Pipes
Older neighborhoods like Second Creek often deal with sewer line “bellies” — where the soil shifts over time and causes pipes to dip.
Common signs of sewer line dips:
- Persistent drain clogs
- Standing water in tubs after draining
- Bad smells from yard areas even without rain
Sagging pipes collect debris and wastewater — and eventually, they cause full backups if not corrected.
Adams Plumbing & Drain Company offers trenchless and traditional sewer repair options to fix it right.
🚩 3. Sewer Gas Smells Indoors or Outdoors
Another issue we see in Second Creek homes is sewer gas odor, especially near cleanouts or in low-lying areas.
Sewer gas can enter your home due to:
- Cracked underground lines
- Faulty venting
- Dry drain traps
Not only is the smell unpleasant, but long-term exposure can be dangerous. Fast action protects your family’s health and your property value.
