Backyard Swamp Surprise

[Fargo]

So this weekend I stepped into what I thought was a puddle in the yard, but the smell told a different story. Turns out our sewer line might be backing up because the basement drain has been gurgling too. We have kids and a dog running around, so this is stressing me out. Can anyone recommend a reliable sewer pipe repair service before this gets worse?

That is the worst surprise to step in. We had something similar last spring when our yard turned soggy and the basement toilet started bubbling. In our case, tree roots had cracked the sewer line and it only got messier the longer we waited. I would move fast, especially with kids and pets around. This article helped me understand repair options before calling anyone: sewer pipe repair . It gave me a better idea of what to expect.
