Frequently Asked Questions About Sewer Line Installation

When Should I Start Thinking About Sewer Line Replacement?

You should start thinking about sewer line replacement if you start to notice a significant increase in clogs and slow drains in your home. Sewer lines are designed to last a minimum of 75 years, although their lifespan can be significantly reduced if installed incorrectly, infiltrated by trees and tree roots, buried in poor soil conditions, and if too much other debris ends up in your sewer line (i.e., putting the wrong things down your drains). If your drains are clogged and draining slowly, call Rock Plumbing, Heating, & Air Conditioning to have a professional plumber take a look at your sewer line.

What Are the Signs That I May Need a Sewer Line Replacement?

Signs that you may need a sewer line replacement are when your drains get clogged and are draining significantly slower than normal. If you only have a single sink that is clogging, or only your bathtub is draining slowly, it is more than likely that you just need to have your drains cleared. But if you have several drains displaying these symptoms, it may be time for a replacement. In either case, call Rock Plumbing, Heating, & Air Conditioning to have an expert plumber take a look at your sewer line.

Can I Delay My Sewer Pipe Replacement by Cleaning Out the Pipe Myself?

It is never a good idea to try and clean out your sewer line pipe yourself. In fact, attempting to clean out your sewer line yourself with a snake or auger can actually make the problem even worse. Using drain cleaner on pipes that are already in disrepair will only dissolve away your pipes even more than they are currently. Usually, if you are experiencing a lot of clogging and slow draining, the problem is much bigger than an auger or drain snake could ever fix, since it is likely you have a tree root infestation deep within your pipes. Have a certified plumber from Rock Plumbing, Heating, & Air Conditioning come take a look at your sewer line to better direct you on whether the problem is as simple as professionally cleaning out your drains (hydro-jetting) or full-on replacing your sewer line.

How Much Does a Sewer Line Replacement Typically Cost?

The cost of replacing a sewer line depends on several factors, including materials, complexity of the replacement, and labor. If you think you might need your sewer line replaced, call Rock Plumbing, Heating, & Air Conditioning to have a plumbing expert come out to your home to take a look at your sewer line and give you a free quote.

Is There a Definitive Way to Determine if My Sewer Pipe Needs to Be Replaced?

A camera inspection performed by a professional plumber can determine if you need a sewer line replacement. Camera inspections involve threading a digital camera through your sewer line in order to view and record the inside of the pipe. These cameras are capable of detecting cracks, holes, collapsed pipe sections, and root infiltrations. If the plumber notices any of these common problems, they could recommend a sewer pipe cleanout or a pipe replacement, depending on the severity.

What Is a Trenchless Pipe Replacement?

Trenchless pipe replacement involves installing a new sewer line pipe in the same tunnel or lining the original piping with an epoxy seal. The benefit of trenchless pipe replacement is that it is much less disruptive to you, your yard, and your neighbors compared to traditional pipe replacement. Trenchless pipe replacement only requires very minimal digging and excavation, and because of this subsequent time saved on labor, you will also save money.
