Sewer Main Replacement in Sacramento

Because your sewer main line carries all of the water from the inside of your home to the city’s sewer, it’s a very important part of your plumbing system. If your sewer main is in need of replacement, it will show signs of deterioration, including:

• Erosion around the sewer main
• Damaged sidewalks and driveways due to a leak
• Poor drainage in your home’s sinks or toilets
• Strong smells
• Backup of water in showers and tubs
• Visible leaks around your property
• Known damage from landscaping or construction

Sewer Main Replacement Solutions

The first thing we will do to determine if you need a replacement is to inspect the sewer main itself. We will use both visual inspection and camera inspection to determine the extent of the problem. Depending on the severity of the issue, we may be able to repair the sewer main using pipe lining techniques. We line the existing sewer main with epoxy or resin and repair holes, gaps and breaks. In some instances, the sewer line will be damaged beyond repair and will need a total replacement.

Sewer main replacement can be an extensive process and may require us to excavate your yard and property. We understand the stress this may cause and will make every effort to reduce the amount of damage done. We will also help in returning the area back to normal after the replacement has been complete. Since the sewer main ties into the city sewer system, we will also handle all of the needed permits and inspections the city or county may require.

Sewer Main Replacement Benefits

In some cases, a repair may be possible but not be the best option. Sewer mains need to be completely problem-free in order to work properly. Small repairs will add up and you’ll see that they are costly. Replacing the entire sewer main could save you money in the long run. In addition, a replacement can help:

• Alleviate constant drain issues
• Increase the value of your home
• Give you peace of mind
