Is Sewer Gas in Your Home Harmful?

Helpful Information

Sewer gas is certainly an unpleasant smell that many of us are familiar with, often resembling the stench of rotten eggs. While it may seem like nothing more than a nuisance, prolonged exposure to sewage odor can actually be quite harmful to your health.

What Is Sewer Gas Made Of?

Sewage gas is a mixture of both toxic and nontoxic gases. Depending on the source, concentration levels of sewage gas vary. Sewer gas can contain the following:

  • Carbon dioxide
  • Methane
  • Nitrous oxide
  • Sulfur dioxide

Highly toxic components of sewer gas can sometimes include hydrogen sulfide and ammonia as well. Hydrogen sulfide smells like rotten eggs. However, without these chemicals present, most people are not aware of their exposure, as methane and carbon monoxide are odorless.

How Can Sewer Gas Be Harmful?

Exposure to sewer gas can result in the following symptoms:

  • Headaches
  • Nausea
  • Dizziness
  • Drowsiness

However, there are also other health risks that can occur from sewer gas exposure. People can suffer hydrogen sulfide poisoning as well as suffocation.

  • Hydrogen sulfide poisoning: This can cause eye and respiratory irritation. Other symptoms can include nausea, nervousness, dizziness, and drowsiness. High concentrations of hydrogen sulfide can cause loss of consciousness and death.
  • Suffocation: Suffocation can occur when there is a high concentration of methane in an enclosed area. This decreases the amount of oxygen and can lead to an inability to breathe properly.

When your home is exposed to sewer gas, not only is your space contaminated but you are faced with health risks. If you experience any symptoms of sewer gas exposure, it’s important to see a doctor and to hire a plumber to help resolve this issue.

If you’re noticing sewer odors, call Thompson Family Plumbing and Drain for our sewer­­­­ services. We’re dedicated to providing our customers peace of mind.

Dial (800) 483-0784 or contact us online.

What Our Valued Customers Are Saying

  • “Always go above and beyond for their customers”

    Once again Thompson Family Plumbing came in and took care of us as if we were their family. They always go above and beyond for their customers and make you feel like you are important to them. I can’t thank them enough for coming in and taking care of the issues that I had with my home as quickly as they did. Absolutely the best plumbing company around. Thank you, John and Devynn for everything.

    -Nicole H.

  • “Price was more than reasonable, especially last minute”

    What a great local family company. Had a little issue today (Saturday). Gave them a call. The lady said she would have someone here between 3 & 5. It was at 1 when I called. 3:00 on the nose Don was here. Don was very friendly and had the broken pipe fixed in no time at all. The price was more than reasonable, especially last minute on a Saturday.

    -Andy S.

  • “Fantastic job of analyzing the situation and making all the necessary repairs”

    Thank you Thompson Family Plumbing for your quick and professional service. Don did a fantastic job of analyzing the situation and making all the necessary repairs. Clients were happy with the professionalism and knowledge that Don possessed in getting the job done. Ashley went out of her way to ensure that an appointment was made asap for the clients.

    -Richard B.

  • “Took care of it in no time”

    Plumbing technician Dean Taylor came over last week to set up a line so I could get a dishwasher installed. I didn’t have the proper setup but he took care of it in no time! Now the installers will have no problem doing it. He was very knowledgeable and professional. I will definitely have him come back for other plumbing jobs. From start to finish everyone I spoke to was very helpful! Their customer service is outstanding!

    -Jackie L.

  • “Gave me great peace of mind”

    Great experience with TFP! They were super professional and friendly, exactly on time, fixed the issue, AND were inexpensive. I received a text when to expect them with a picture of my two technicians (Dean & Kade) AND their license numbers included in the text. This gave me great peace of mind as I am a woman that lives alone. I highly recommend Thompson Family Plumbing!

    -Brisa A.

  • “Integrity and honesty”

    I cannot say enough good things about this amazing company. We found them through reading other people’s reviews on Yelp. They have helped us with a plumbing issue and installing a new hot water heater. They are prompt, reasonable, and incredibly helpful. John’s integrity and honesty along with the rest of the crew would make it a pleasure to recommend to anyone and everyone.

    After contacting Thompson Plumbing concerning the water puddle that was in my front yard they sent out a technician very quickly. Harry was very friendly and explained everything he needed to do concerning the leak. He proceeded to look around the property to see if there were any other water issues and luckily he didn't find any. Harry called his supervisor to assist in further explanation of preventative measures that could be done. Devin came and after an amount of time he gave me 3 different plans in which I could choose from. He thoroughly explained each one. I decided to go with getting the regulator for the water pressure from the main line into the house. Each individual was very courteous. The work was done while I was away for a few days and upon my return everything was in working order and the clean up was done. I highly recommend them. Thank You Thompson Family Plumbing.

    Everyone was great! The gentleman I talked to on Sunday made it a priority to have a technician out the next day due to the leak even though it was a holiday, and the technician returned as soon as he had the needed part and repaired the leak. There was communication every step of the way, and I so appreciate their commitment to their customers. Thank you!Lisa Nash

    Hello Thompson family plumbing. My experience with your business was fantastic. Your timing was absolutely phenomenal. When I explained the problem you came so quickly. Your work definitely lives up to your name ( family) that's exactly how you made me feel. I wantt you to know it was not your service that caused me to look else where. The first Finance company was not consistent. First they said I was approved,, then said they couldn't verify my income, then said I needed a cosigner,, then a few days later was sending me documents saying I was approved so by then the problem was solved. Know that in the future if I need a plumber I definitely will be calling you. God bless you and your family with GREAT SUCCESS. Ms. Adams

From their text messaging to their callbacks to their follow ups.The crew was so kind and patient, Riley almost thought he had a permanent fixture at the household.If you would like the job done in a timely manner, with great customer service. I would recommendThompson’s Family PlumbingThank you.

    A high 5 to Dustin who performed a garbage disposal replacement and installed a water heater expansion tank. He performed a complete plumbing and water pressure check all at no extra charge. He addressed all problem areas (which was needing the expansion tank) and gave me options. Very knowledgeable, courteous, and left work areas clean. We are very pleased with the service and the pricing was competitive. We will call again should the need arise. A high 5+ to the customer service ladies. They sent texts confirming appointment dates, work to be performed and if there were any concerns on my part to let them know. Businesses should take lessons from Thompson's on how to treat and respect customers. Thank You everyone at Thompson's Family Plumbing for a job well done.

    I took way too long to put this review but this is hands down the best plumbing company ever. They will work with you if you have a problem & moneys right. Both people that came were very nice & even let my kids watch them work lol I can tell this is a family owned company because they cared more about fixing my plumbing issues then make sure they made a pretty penny. Definitely going to return to them when an issue presents itself & would recommend them over any company in this area.

    I have used Thompson Family Plumbing on 4 different occasions and each time the support I received from the making of the appointment to the completed work has always been top notch with complete satisfaction. I was made aware when to expect their arrival and they were right on time. Dean Taylor, my service man was completely knowledgeable, kind and professional. It was a small job but Dean handled it with concern and quick repair. I can give this company a 10 out of 10 in all aspects from the reminder text to Dean knowing exactly how to fix my plumbing problems. Thank you Thompson Family Plumbing... I will be recommending your company to all of my friends and family once again. Thank you Dean for being so kind and efficient. It’s so nice to have a company that you know will get the job done and the price was very reasonable.

    My experience with Thompson family plumbing was certainly a positive one. They, we're very attentive listed to everything I had to say before he began his diagnosis. The guys We're very knowledgeable, very friendly, very prompt. The thing I appreciated most is the level of communication between the main office and myself. They let me know. Exactly what's coming? And when they would be here, which I appreciated, very much, I would certainly recommend them to anyone that has plumbing problems. These guys were Johnny-on-the-spot.

    The whole team at Thompson is terrific, I first called Hitt Plumbing and that was a huge mistake, they couldn’t find the leak said I had several and needed the whole house done. Took them a week to get back with me with an estimate, I called Thompson after waiting 6days they came out found the leak and I had a quote in a half hour and started the next day before I ever heard back from Hitt. If you have plumbing issues please don’t hesitate to contact Thompson Family Plumbing.

    I called Thompson Family Plumbing about a suspected leak under my driveway. It turned out to be a much bigger issue than I thought.... from the moment I first spoke to Lindsey on the phone to meeting Riley, Eden, Brandon, and all the team, I knew I had contacted the right company.Each person I met was professional, personable, and knowledgeable. Eden walked me through the job every step of the way.... I knew exactly the game plan and all my questions were answered. Alex and Anthony kept me posted throughout the process which is important to me.I wish I could thank each team member by name for that first day when they worked so hard busting out concrete in 106° heat.Thank You!!A special shout out to Riley and Brandon for working tirelessly on that second , 104° day. They addressed every issue (and then some) you guys are the best!I'm retired now, but my husband and I owned a small landscaping company in California for almost 30 years. We had 12 employees.... I can only hope our guys represented us the way all of your team represents Thompson Family Plumbing.Great Job!

He even helped us with a few details that we are unable to do ourselves because we are 80 years old. He got to work and was done before we knew it. He was also very thorough. We are always very happy with Thompson Family Plumbing!!

    How do you find and fix a leak and you never did a leak detection to begin with.That’s is why I still have a leak and had to file a claim with my insurance after already paying $1000 to fix something that was never fixedSo I just want to say, the owner actually reached out personally to address my concerns. I was able to let him know how I was feeling and he shared some information with me and he seemed very genuine. I have never had an owner reach out to try to resolve the issue I was facing. I have always had excellent customer service from them. Sometimes things happen that are out of our control. I will still be using Thompson Family Plumbing moving forward.

    I called around and came across Thompson Family and gave them a turn. From the get go they were on board and helpful. Ended up calling them back later and scheduling a water heater replacement for the next day. They came over as requested, did a full on estimate and proposed several ways to get the job done. They had an installer back within the hour and two hours later I had hot water once again. They were like they advertise, 5 stars. Tom and Frank were on their A games and the only thing that hurt out this was the price but it was still lower then most of the estimates I received the day prior and the problem is now in the rear view mirror.

And when there was an issue with a part, he was able to have another part delivered within 20 minutes to my house. Everything was done correctly, no more pressure issues, no more leaking water heater, no more leaking toilet! For sure a 5/5!! Thanks Thompson Family Plumbing!

    Needed a replacement for my garbage disposal. The service tech was Juan Gonzalez-Santiago. He clearly explained everything and showed me the options for choosing the proper replacement. Upon completion Juan checked everything, left the site clean. I have used Thompson Plumbing over a ten year time span. They are still the first people I call for any plumbing issue. They stand by their work and handle unforeseen issues the right way.

    My wife discovered a water leak last Thurs morning coming from our garage ceiling on her way to work.She informed me and I turned off our water source. I called Thompson Family Plumming and I spoke to a pleasant female named Val. As I explained our situation she stated she would make this a priority call and the first tech available will see this and come to my home and diagnose my plumming problem today. That indeed did happen. Shaun arrived around noon time and diagnosed the problem. He explained what had happened, took pictures of the leak and explained opportunities and quoted a very reasonable price for repairs. I agreed and he set to work, repaired the leak, and tested our water for hardness and water pressure for Free and filed the results. All this was done by the time my wife came home from work to our home having running water. Such a pleasure to Experience a business who runs a smooth operation using such skilled employee's who knew how and did their jobs very well having customer care service at their forefront making me feel like their family member who cares. I have lived here for 52 yrs and such a Wonderful experience to see here.I Highly recommend Thompson Family Plumming in LHC.N W

    My 21+ year old water heater was beginning to leak, and I knew that I needed to do something sooner than later. After dealing with several plumbing companies who just can't seem to get a job done correctly, on time, or at budget, Thompson Family Plumbing has become my go-to plumbers when I want a job done right and in a timely manner. My past experience as well as today's job went better than I expected. Thompson Family Plumbing has always priced the job right and then over-delivered in the way of service. I have recommended Thompson Family Plumbing to friends who have had the same experience that I have had--true satisfaction for a professional job done right!

    We had a water main leak around Thanksgiving. The TFP&D office was very responsive, helpful and got someone out to us in a reasonable amount of time. Our tech was Dean and he was terrific! He replaced our setup with some heavy duty piping and reinforcement. He worked hard and stayed at it even when it got dark (and it was cold). He followed up the next day and even after that when we had questions. I definitely recommend their service.

    I was very pleased and impressed with the the speed at which they were able to get someone to me since my need was essentially an "emergency" situation. I knew who was coming before he arrived which is helpful. His work was thorough and explained completely. The price was very reasonable. There were some extra tests performed which showed the need for further services which were fully explained and estimates given without pressure to decide on the spot how I would handle the situation. I'm very satisfied with the service.

    Riley Nason with Thompson Family Plumbing was top notch. As a new homeowner, this was my first plumbing issue I’ve ever encountered. I Google searched for local plumbers, Thompson was one of the first to come up that served Colton, CA, after reading through a few reviews I called them up and booked my appointment for the following day. Riley came out, diagnosed my problem, and went to work. He was extremely kind, thorough, professional, and sincere. He efficiently cleared my upstairs toilet that overflowed and leaked into the downstairs bathroom, as well as replaced the old toilet all together and did a fine job. He also offered recommendations for other work we can do to fix my leaking shower. Reasonably priced for the amount of work I had him do within a few hours. I’ll definitely work with Thompson Family Plumbing again.

    First of all I talked with a pleasant knowageable person called Tracy which set up the appointment and follow up with tracking so I could see exactly when and who was going to have the pleasure to meet along with a photo. I felt I had a connection with Nick before he arrive. Nick has to be the most professional and honest man I have met. He not only did a great job of replacing my hot water heater shutoff valve. I had several estimates for a tankless water heater. Great job Nick and I can see nothing but great thing happening in your life. Being a tradesman myself I can appreciate your honest attitude and love for your trade.

    I was very pleased with the repairman, Vincent, and the apprentice working with him, Blake. Why?* Always on time to start (allowing for traffic issues).* Very realistic break for lunch and supplies.* Finished when he said they would both days.* Helpful. Always willing to answer my questions, explain my options, and describe the situations they found.* The description of the situation he gave coincided with previous Plumber’s assessments.* Since I’m not knowledgeable about Plumbing, I can’t realistically evaluate the work they did. But the Before and After pictures say a lot.Based on the work they did, I will definitely recommend them and will use this company for any future plumbing jobs.

    Jacob was very professional, very helpful, and very knowledgeable. We originally used them to come out and repair our tankless water heater. Ended up getting a brand new one, due to his knowledge and expertise. Also had a water treatment system installed at that time. We then had them come out a second time to repair a toilet. Jacob and the customer support has been outstanding! Will use them again for sure.

    We used Thompson's 2 months ago to repair a frozen pipe and hose bib. They sent Dean and he did an excellent job...this past week at 10pm, our pipe backed up and flooded our bathroom. I emailed Thompson's immediately, explained the problem, they called first thing the next morning and sent Jacob Martinez out to find the problem. It turned out to be somewhat complex. We had roots, rocks and a sagging clogged pipe that needed to be replaced. Jacob is the hardest worker we have ever seen! This was a very difficult job! He had to hand dig, remove and replace several feet of pipe under the house in very limited crawl space! We will never use another company or plumber. Thank you Thompson's for your incredible customer service, professionalism, and follow through. Jean and Dave Hamilton

    We bought a fixer upper house in Lake Arrowhead and had no idea of the number of Plumbing issues we would have. Richard Reaster's expertise, helpfulness and ability to diagnose and quickly repair leaks, faucets, toilets, and septic tank issues, saved us a lot of grief. He even found additional issues that need repair before they happen. His ideas on how we can move a washer and dryer to a new area as inexpensively as possible make him a great asset to his company. I highly recommend Richard for your Plumbing needs
