"Dave and AJ from Freedom Contracting & Excavating did a great job for a reasonable price. I had an idea for an outdoor griddle setup using natural gas instead of propane tanks. I thought it was a long shot but they were able to make it happen. Very courteous and straight forward. They even went above and beyond by helping me with the natural gas conversion on my griddle. I would definitely hire them again and if you need any gas line work done, call Freedom C & E for sure! Thanks again!"

Reliant gas lines is a natural gas service line repair or replacement company.

As a small owner operator business I can be flexible on scheduling as these types of problems tend to be emergencies.

PA055967-James A. Munion had a start just like anyone else, at the very bottom. He swept up the work shop for a company called Dotson brothers when he was only 12 years old. Mr. Dotson said to James A.: “I actually can’t believe that you moved the glue buckets out of the way to sweep in the corners. The last kid we had never took the time to do that.” From that day forward, James had a permanent place at Dotson Brothers. He quickly moved on to shop hand, and was allowed to help create the laminate counter tops the company made. After only a short amount of time, Mr. Dotson had trusted Jim with crafting them on his own. Jim took to it with excellent initiative. However, after an extended amount of time creating counter tops, it was time to move on with his career… James’ grandmother owned a two car garage she rented out for tenants. The day he said he was going to start his own business, she, (politely as an italian-broken-english-speaking grandmother could,) kicked out the two tenants immediately and gave him his work shop. Since that very day, we have been running the business out of that very same two car garage. We have been family owned and operated since we turned the power on in the shop, in 1978.

"Highly recommend, great work, reasonable pricing, hard workers, easy to work with, amazing attention to detail, skilled craftsmen, and great people."

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.
