Busted Pipe
By onthehouse on April 16, 2014
Question
The waste water from the clothes washer and kitchen sink drain onto the floor of the garage or into the backyard through a pipe on the exterior of the home/kitchen wall. This pipe was broken prior to moving in and remains open. Should I call a plumber?

Answer
Waste water from your clothes washer and kitchen sink SHOULD NOT drain onto the garage floor or into the backyard. This waste should discharge into an on-site septic tank or a municipal sewage system. Anything less is unsanitary.We suggest that contact a reliable plumber (or sewer & drain service) in your area to make sure that the drainpipes are configured properly and draining freely. Thus, the best tool that we suggest you use is your telephone.
