Our prices are flat-rate and upfront, so you don’t have to worry about inflating prices as the job goes on.

"Contacted Mr. Rooter on a Saturday and they quickly sent Dave and his assistant. Dave diagnosed the problem, provided a couple of solutions (after discussing each with me) and once we settled on a plan-of-attack, he got right to it. Dave was great! He fixed the problem, the cost was reasonable and they cleaned up after themselves. I highly recommend Mr. Rooter. (P.S.- ask for Dave)."

Sewer main install, replace or repairs FAQs

Sewer line replacement typically costs between $50 and $250 per foot. The price depends on the material you choose and the complexity of the project. PVC pipes are more affordable, while copper pipes are more expensive. Factors like trenching requirements, how accessible your sewer line is, and labor rates in your area also affect the overall cost per foot.

A sewer sleeve is a method used to repair cracks or holes in existing sewer pipes without excavation. Professionals employ a cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining technique, where an epoxy-saturated liner is inserted into the damaged pipe to seal defects. This minimally invasive process avoids digging up your yard and is more cost-effective than replacing the entire pipe, extending the life of your sewer system.

Most newer homes use PVC and ABS piping because they're durable, have smooth interiors that prevent clogs, and are affordable. If your home is older, your pipes might be made of copper, Orangeburg, clay, cast iron, or even lead. It's important to have a plumber inspect your piping before handling it, as some older materials can contain toxic substances.

You can look for several signs to tell if your sewer pipes are damaged. Persistent clogs and frequent sewage backups are common indicators of a problem. Sudden increases in utility bills may signal a leak, while sulfur smells suggest sewage is not properly contained. Additionally, noticing sewage in your yard points to a possible sewer line break that requires immediate attention.

While not all plumbing work requires a permit, any work involving a sewer line is almost guaranteed to require permits in every town or city due to sanitary concerns and biohazard risks. Your plumbing pro can handle permits, or you can call or apply for a permit online at your city’s building department.

A clogged sewer line is generally not covered by standard homeowner's insurance policies. Insurance often excludes damage resulting from regular wear and tear or neglect. However, if the clog is due to sudden and accidental damage, such as tree roots infiltrating the line, some policies may offer coverage. It's important to review your policy or speak with your insurance provider to understand your specific coverage.
