I live in a row of townhouses. We have a PVC pipe that emerges vertically from the front yard that I assume is a clean out pipe. It is located about 1 foot into my yard from the sidewalk and about 3" from the first slab on my concrete walkway.
We've had two terrible winters and a lot of rain this year and there is now erosion around my walkway. About 2-3" of the pipe is now exposed (where none was before) and the first slab of my walkway is now tilted towards the side where the pipe is. I'm on a slope so the tilt is downhill.
I'm having no plumbing issues at all that I'm aware of. Everything is filling, flushing, and draining appropriately and there are no foul odors. My water bills are low so I don't believe I have a leak.
Is this merely erosion/settling or could this indicate a sewer line issue?
