Replacement vs. Repair
While repairs address specific problems, replacement provides a complete, long-term solution. New pipes offer decades of trouble-free service with modern materials that resist corrosion and root intrusion.
Modern Pipe Materials:
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)
Durable, corrosion-resistant, and cost-effective for most residential applications.
ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene)
Strong, lightweight, resistant to chemicals and corrosion.
HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene)
Flexible, durable, ideal for trenchless installations.
Cast Iron (Modern)
Superior strength for commercial applications and deep installations.
Our Replacement Process:
1. Complete Assessment
Video inspection and site evaluation to determine extent of replacement needed and best installation method.
2. Permits & Approvals
We handle all necessary permits and coordinate with local authorities.
3. Installation Method Selection
We recommend traditional or trenchless based on your property conditions, budget, and timeline.
4. Professional Installation
Our experienced crew completes installation efficiently with minimal disruption.
5. Testing & Inspection
We thoroughly test the new system and arrange final inspections.
6. Site Restoration
We restore your property to its original condition (traditional method) or leave it virtually undisturbed (trenchless method).
Traditional Sewer Line Replacement
Conventional excavation may be required when:
-
Extensive site work is already planned
-
Trenchless access is impossible
-
Significant grade corrections are needed
-
Building codes require it
We minimize disruption and complete site restoration as part of our service.
Trenchless Sewer Line Replacement:
Pipe bursting and directional boring techniques (see Trenchless Services page) replace your sewer line with minimal excavation—usually just small access pits at each end.
Investment Protection:
New sewer lines typically last 50-100 years, depending on material and conditions. We provide warranties on materials and workmanship for your peace of mind.
Financing Options Available
Sewer line replacement is a significant investment. We work with you to find cost-effective solutions and financing options.
